YOU WILL LAST

1st September 2024

Scripture Reading: LUKE 15: 11-32

Focus

“And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.” (Luke 15: 13)

Our Focal Scripture speaks of how it was not many days before the prodigal son gathered all he received and wasted same. What he received did not take many days before it was in jeopardy. What he received was lost in no time. What he received was lost almost as soon as he got it. What he received did not last long in his hands. What he received literally expired in his hands too soon. What he received did not last in his hands.

Friend, hear me as I hear the Lord: whatsoever you have received from the Lord will last. Your access to high places will last. Your greatness will last. Your rising will last. Your progress will last. Your open doors will last. Your miracles will last. Your favour will last. Whatsoever opportunity that heaven has given you, will last. Your relevance will last. Your resources will last. Whatsoever God has allowed you to receive, will last in your hands.

I pray for you: your marriage will last. Your children will last. Your career will last. Your ministry will last. Your influence will last. Your relevance in high places will last. The results that God has granted you will last. Your relevance in heaven’s agenda will last. You will not be a one-time wonder. You will not be a flash in the pan. You will not be counted among those whose greatness is here now, gone now. You will not expire ahead of time.

Again, I pray for you: may the grace of longevity be upon you. May the grace that keeps men relevant and useful for long years be upon you. May the grace that causes whatever has entered your hands to last long, be upon you. May the grace that causes men to remain in high places from year to year and from decade to decade be upon you. May the grace for lasting results be upon you. May the grace for lasting crowns be upon you.

No longer will your portion expire way too soon. Whatsoever the Lord has done in you or put in your hands will stand the test of time.

Declaration

NO REDUCTION

In our Focal Scripture, the prodigal son judged himself unworthy of remaining a son to his father. He wanted to move from sonship to servanthood.
