“I will make them and the places all around My hill a blessing; and I will cause showers to come down in their season; there shall be showers of blessing.” – Ezekiel 34:26 NKJV.
Quarter One Reflections: Triumph by Grace
“Now thanks be to God who always causes us to triumph in Christ and through us reveals the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.” (2 Corinthians 2:14 MEV).
Just as a fleeting dream, the first quarter of this significant year has swiftly passed—not by our might nor power, but purely by God’s grace. Despite the trials and challenges, we’ve witnessed remarkable demonstrations of God’s unending goodness and unwavering faithfulness.
Victorious Amidst Challenges
“Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors and gain an overwhelming victory through Him who loved us [so much that He died for us].” (Romans 8:37 Amplified Bible).
Indeed, God’s promise stands true, giving us victory over every adversity and turning our struggles into stepping stones toward triumph.
Overflowing Abundance and Divine Favor
God`s Word reveals in Ezekiel 34:26 Amplified Bible that, “I will make them and the places around My hill (Jerusalem, Zion) a blessing. And I will make showers come down in their season; there will be [abundant] showers of blessing (divine favor).”
Expect abundant showers of divine favor to saturate your life, bringing forth extraordinary fruitfulness and growth.
Embracing the Promise of Abundant Life
“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” (John 10:10 NIV).
Throughout April, guided by God’s grace and the Holy Spirit’s assistance, we will explore the profound significance of these showers of blessing. We will learn practical ways to harness and enjoy the abundant life promised by our Lord Jesus Christ.
Showers of Blessings: A Legacy of Faith
Reflecting on the beautiful hymn “Showers of Blessings,” penned by Daniel Webster (D.W. Whittle) in 1883, we are reminded of the divine rain of blessings God generously pours upon those who trust in Him. Just as rain nourishes the earth, these showers bring spiritual nourishment, growth, abundance, and fruitfulness into our lives.
Faith Amidst Difficulty: Trusting in the Lord for the Showers of Blessing
“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him. He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream.” (Jeremiah 17:7-8 NIV).
Let us boldly put our faith in Christ, standing firm even amid challenges, fully assured that these divine showers of blessing await those who believe. Together, let’s step into April 2025 expectant, joyful, and ready to experience the incredible showers of divine favor! [To be continued next week].
