Message
A story was told of a girl called Queen. Queen worked very hard and brought many awards to her family. She was already on Government scholarship in high school. There, she was selected to represent her state in the National Mathematics competition. Queen won the competition to the admiration of everyone including her fellow competitors. The State government raised a podium and set Queen on it for everybody present to file past to salute the Queen.
God has promised to bless and honour His children who are obedient to Him. How can it be that the One we are commanded to respect and honour now promises to honour us – His creatures? There is nothing God cannot do for a child whose life pleases Him. That was His promise to Israel and to anyone that does His will. That honour manifested in God making Israel fruitful, established and secured.

1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
