And so today I want to speak to you about blessed in the famine.

Blessed in the famine. Yeah.

I'm talking about thriving. Thriving, OK?

I'm not talking about just getting by.

I'm not talking about scraping by or just barely getting there

or barely surviving. I'm talking about thriving.

Thriving. Somebody.

Hallelujah. Are you ready for this church?

Because I feel the anointing stirring already.

I feel something stirring in the atmosphere already in this

place. OK.

And I just believe that God is about to drop something

supernatural in this place. I'm sensing it right now.

The atmosphere is thick, it's heavy.

It's pregnant with the glory of God.

Hallelujah, ready to touch somebody's life.

And so this place is about to shake, shake our lives.

And I'm just thinking God is about to stir faith in our

hearts, faith in our lives. Break, lack, release, abundance,

thrive. Driving from somebody, shout

Hallelujah, Hallelujah. And so this isn't just a sermon.

This is a divine announcement. You are blessed.

Are you receiving this this morning church, you are blessed

from the front room of God. God send me to tell you that you

are blessed, OK? Blessed in the famine, not when

the famine is over, not after the famine, but in the frighting

it. You 5 You blessed in right in

the metal smack pack in the middle of the famine, right

there fiving placed in the middle of the dry ground.

You are placed in the midst of it, you are blessed.

Hallelujah, somebody shot. Hallelujah.

Give God some praise. If you believe that you are

blessed, Hallelujah. Come on, sell your neighbor and

say you are blessed, you are blessed, you are blessed, you

are blessed, you are blessed. The blessing of God is in this

place. Church, get ready.

Something is about to happen in this place.

Oh my God, oh Hallelujah, Are you ready for this?

Because when God puts his hand on your life, when the favour of

heaven comes upon your life, you don't just survive through the

famine. You don't just get by scraping

by, but you 5 when the blessing of you are blessed, Hallelujah,

you flourish in the pressure, you multiply, you bless when the

hand of God is on your life placed in the famine.

And so today we're going to have a look in the book of Psalms.

And so open there with me or we'll put his, the the

Scriptures up on the screen as well.

In the book of Psalm, Psalm chapter 37, let me tell you what

Psalms 37 · chapter mention

the word says and we will read from verse 19, Psalm 37, verse

Psalms 37:19

19. In times of disaster, they will

not weather. In days of famine, they will

enjoy plenty. Let's pray.

Father, we come before you with hungry and open hearts.

Lord, I thank you that your word is powerful.

Your word is alive, and Lord now speak through me.

Lord, I pray annoyed every year to year, every heart to receive,

every life to be transformed. Move Holy Spirit, have your way,

take over and do what only you can do.

Saturate this place with your glory.

In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray somebody say a So the

scripture says that in the days of famine we will enjoy plenty.

Hallelujah, plenty means more than enough.

In the days of that we will enjoy more than enough.

OK, now notice that the Bible did not say that you will

through the in the times of famine, you will just barely

scrape by. You will just get through.

You will just survive the famine.

Now the Bible says that you will enjoy plenty during the time of

famine. Now that is the power of

blessing, OK, the power of blessing that you enjoy, you are

blessed. You enjoy overflow, abundance

during the time of famine. Blessed with come on, somebody

shot plenty. OK, shot it with baldness.

Shot like you mean it. Come on.

But I prayed to tell your neighbors, shot plenty.

OK, Plenty is the plenty. That is the word of my God.

How? What a powerful word we are

receiving this morning from heaven about plenty and famine

time, my Lord, I mean that that defies logical word, but it's

the word of God. So I thank God for the blessing.

Because you see, the blessing in your life is not dependent upon

the economy, the climate, the conditions.

It's not dependent upon the circumstances, the blessing of

God upon you. You see, you are not tied up and

connected to a wildly system. You are tied up and connected to

a heavenly, a higher realm, the realm of God's Kingdom, a

heavenly source. You are connected not to the

worthy surface level, but a deeper level in the realm of

God's Kingdom, God's Kingdom that never runs dry.

Oh my God. Hallelujah, somebody shall I may

OK. The economy might crash, things

change, circumstances check. The job may change, OK.

But the blessing that is on your life, it doesn't change.

You see it doesn't fluctuate going up and down, OK, Like

economy, like the the climate, OK.

The blessing of God on your life is not seasonal.

It is supernatural. Hallelujah, somebody.

OK, now I don't know what your situation looks like this

morning. Maybe the doors of shut or the

answers are the light, the pressure is mounting.

But I have come with a prophetic word from the word of the Lord

for you today that you are not withering, you are not drying

up, but you are thriving. Come on, somebody sharp,

thriving, thriving, Yes, you are thriving, OK, Because the

promises of God are still yes and Amen.

Circumstances may change. The blessing of God is on your

or stays on your life. And so the river of God always

flows. It never stops.

It always keeps on moving and keeps on flowing.

And so the blessing of God on your life, it floods every

drought part of your soul, causing you to thrive.

You thrive in difficult. You thrive in famine.

Somebody shot on thriving. Come on, shot on thriving.

Open your lips and say I am thriving.

This is the word of the world, the Clement of your life.

I am thriving. Put your eyes together.

Praise God. Somebody make some noise.

Yeah. Hallelujah.

There's a flower. It's known as the red desert

flower. And so this desert rose flower,

it grows in the desert regions, one of the harshest, driest

regions on the earth. And so the conditions are

brutal. That's heat during the day, cold

at night, rough, dry ground, rocky places, and so almost no

water. In fact, everything around it

says that you shouldn't survive here.

But somehow this flower doesn't just survive, it thrives.

While other plants and other flowers they weather in the

drought, the desert rose, it pushes it roots deep down into

the earth and so it reaches and it draws water from the streams

on the on the ground. And so because it grows in

harsh, difficult conditions, it's colour is deeper, it's

sweet fragrance is stronger, it blooms more beauty, it blooms

beautifully, more than other flowers that grow in perfect

conditions. And so the battalis will tell

you that the desert rose doesn't bloom in spite of the famine, it

blooms because of the famine. That's what it means to be

blessed in famine. OK, now you might be planted in

a dry place. You might feel surrounded by

famine, emotionally, financially, relational,

everything around. She says that you should be

drying up. But by the blessing of God on

your life, you are not drawing on surface level, you are

drawing deeper. You are keep drawing on the

rivers of God deeper, which is the river of the Holy Spirit.

You are drawing from that. And so while others are

shrinking, you are stretching. While others are panicking, you

are praising, OK, while others are.

And, and so you come and you are blooming with beauty, with

faith, with favors, because you have got roots, because of the

blessing of God on your life, you've got deep roots.

That is acid and it reaches into the rivers of God.

Hallelujah, somebody. And so even when the dry, the

ground is dry, you flourish. Even in times of famine, you

thrive. Hallelujah, somebody.

Shout Hallelujah, man, please God, put your hands together and

tell your neighbor you thrive. You thrive, you thrive, you

thrive. Now you might feel like you're

in dry land, but heaven is not silent.

Heaven is speaking the heavenly language in the heavenly is

speaking abundance. When earth says lack, heaven

says overflow. When your situation says not,

not enough, God, Heaven says I am more than enough.

OK. And so you don't have to fear

the famines, you don't have to run from the droughts because

you were bold for hard places. You were anointed for pressure.

You were called to have a testimony, A testimony that

looks like what what it looks like to be placed in the middle,

not after the famine, not after the storm, but right in the

middle. You are placed in the famine.

Somebody say placed in the famine, placed in the famine.

I meant the placing on your life.

It's not a once of feeling once in a while.

The placing on of on your life is not a doesn't fluctuate the

blessing on your life. OK, it's not a feeling.

The blessing art on your life is not a mood swim.

The blessing of on your life is your identity.

That is who God says who you are Hallelujah.

And so you're not just blessed now and then.

You are not blessed sometimes you are blessed all the time.

Come on, somebody, give God some praise.

Now let me show you a powerful story in the life of Joseph.

In Genesis 39, verse 2, it says the Lord was with Joseph so that

Genesis 39:2

he prospered. Now notice something powerful.

Yet Joseph, he wasn't prospering because of the economy, the

surroundings, the situation around him, OK.

The Bible says that the reason that he prospered is because of

the presence of the Lord that was with him, the blessing of

God. And so he was placed in the pit,

he was placed in the prison, he was placed in the palace, he was

placed because of the praises of God.

And so Joseph's environment, the economy did not define him, but

the blessing of God did. And so I came to tell somebody

to die, that you are placed right now, right where you are

in the struggle, in the difficulty, in the delay, you

are placed all the time because God is with you.

And he promises us in Hebrews chapter 13 verse 5, God has

Hebrews 13:5

said, never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.

That's a powerful word right there.

Oh God, that's a spamming all on its own.

I could preach for hours on just that.

First, Hallelujah. There's so much in there.

We got to say, listen, OK, I will never leave you.

I will never forsake you, OK? That means God is with us all

the time. He's with us always, Hallelujah.

And if God, I promise that God is, he will be with you always.

That means that we are blessed always.

OK, God's with us all the time. So we are blessed all the time,

OK, All the time. That means OK, you are not just

blessed on a Sunday morning in church.

You are blessed on Monday and Monday in the traffic.

You're blessed on Tuesday. You're blessed on Wednesday.

You are blessed on Thursday when the polls are due.

You are blessed all the time. You are blessed when you feel

overlooked. You are blessed when it seems

like nothing is changing or nothing is going well.

You blessed because God is with you all the time.

You are blessed all the time. So I'm not waiting for someday,

someplace in the future, when there comes a moment that I'm

going to be blessed. No, I am blessed already.

Right now. You are blessed.

We are blessed right now. Somebody shot.

I'm blessed right now. Yeah, I'm blessed right now

you've got some prize. Clap your hands.

Are you receiving this? Where should I?

Now then you share about Isaac, and this is very powerful, how

he prospered in famine. Blessed in famine.

Now this is a powerful revelation.

Catch this today in Genesis chapter 26, because there was

Genesis 26 · chapter mention

this famine and say, yes, Isaac and the famine.

And so people are packing up their bags and people are,

they're running away, OK, there's famine running, people

are giving up. People are throwing in the

towel, OK, huge famine. But Isaac did not follow the

crowd. He followed God.

And so lean in and get this because the Bible says, and this

is the key. This is the revelation in the

days of famine, in the middle of the famine, in famine, Isaac

sowed seeds. That's the revelation.

Church grabbed that today. In the time of famine, he sowed.

OK, in the same year, he reaped A hundredfold.

Now say that with me, same year, OK, Now that means the same

year. It means that God didn't need

the conditions to change. God didn't need the weather to

change, God didn't need the famine to change.

God just needed a seat. Oh my God, I feel the launching

in this place. Hallelujah, Genesis 26 verse 12.

Genesis 26:12

Isaac planted crops in that land and the same year reaped A

hundredfold because the Lord blessed him.

That was in a time of famine. He planted.

Listen that you catch that Isaac planted seeds in a time of

famine, in a difficult time. OK?

So listen, you don't have to wait for conditions to be right

in order to flourish, in order to be placed in your life.

Plant your 5 seeds right now in the pressure, in the difficulty,

in the frustration planted right now, and watch God cause you to

flourish and multiply because your circumstances don't dictate

your destiny. Your environment does not

dictate your destiny, OK? It is your faith seeds.

Thus, yeah, the seeds of faith. That's it.

So stop waiting for conditions to get better.

Stop waiting for the economy to change.

Stop waiting saying listen, I will worship when things get

better. I will enjoy my life later when

things get better or we're postponing.

And I will give and I will so see when I get more.

No, plant right now. Plant in the pressure, plant in

the difficult situation, plant in the pain, plant in the

famine. Because God is about to breathe

on your opinions. Hallelujah.

Listen, the economy is not our sustainer, OK?

God uses different reasons, but ultimately Jehovah Jireh, the

Lord, our provider, is our source, the alkaline.

Now I thank God for a boss and a job, and I thank God for that,

but ultimately who is above our boss?

God Almighty victory. And I want you to hear that

because we don't just look to a paycheck to a monthly, we look

to God our source. Jehovah Jina is our provider.

God is our source. So the economy goes up and down

and changes all the time, but not our God is still the same

yesterday to die forever. And if God has promised you to

bless you, he will do it. Hallelujah.

Somebody shout Hallelujah. Yeah, man may fail you, but God

will never fail. He will never forsake you.

God is our soul. Somebody come on, put your eyes

together for Jehovah Jireh. He's our provider.

These are our provider. The power of the blessing, it

doesn't go smaller in the famine.

The power of it doesn't straight small in hardship.

It intensifies. The darker it gets, the brighter

it dries. So the more the difficult the

pressure around you, the more power flows through you.

OK, now I want to show you this famous verse, Jeremiah 29.

We quote that all the time, but I want to show it to you today

in context. And I really believe we're going

to see something deep, powerful in here.

Jeremiah 29 because it's a story of God's people building under

pressure. It says Jeremiah 29, verse 11,

Jeremiah 29:11

famous verse for I know the plans I have for you declares

the Lord plans to prosper you, not to harm you, plans to give

you a hope and a future. What a powerful promise from the

Word of God. Now let me give you the context.

God speaks to his people that is in captivity.

They are in Babylonian captivity in exile.

They have been removed from their homes, from their land and

in that miss hopeless situation, God say something in the

previous verse just before verse 11, verse 5 and 6, God say

something that defies logic. He tells them bold homes.

Palm Cottage, eat the potties fruit, marry gay children, sons

and daughters increase there in Padlo.

Now wait a minute. How is it possible to multiply

and flourish in captivity? How is it possible to thrive in

limitation, in pressure, in difficult times?

How is it possible? Because God says both plant,

marry, multiply. That's what God says in a land

of captivity. OK.

It's exactly what God promised it.

Because when the blessing of God is upon your life, the blessing

is not tied down to just a location, but to a revelation.

And God wants to show his people that, listen, you are not just

placed in Jerusalem, you can be blessed in Babylon.

Hallelujah, placed in Babylon, still blessed even in captivity.

Hallelujah, blessed in a crisis, blessed in the courtroom, in the

drought, in the dry land, in the difficult time, in a famine,

blessed, thriving in a storm. When everything in the world is

shaken and there's chaos in the world.

But God is my people. Even though you find yourselves

above, you can still be blessed. You don't have to be a

Jerusalem. You can be even in Bangalore.

Because the blessing of God struggles with you.

The blessing of God is mobile. Where you go, the blessing goes.

Somebody should even in your toughest season, even in your

greatest limitation, the blessing of God, it can cause

you to thrive even in the difficult times.

Hallelujah, somebody that video clip we watch Heidi Baker, Irish

global God called him to minister in one of the poorest

countries in the world, Mozambique, an area, they called

it useless land. Barham dry land, OK, it's

impossible, but you know, it's amazing.

Roland and Heidi Baker, they obeyed and they bought land in

in that place for the ministry and for the children's centre.

They bought land, OK. And I mean, this land came with

problems. They were told this, that you

cannot go anything there, OK? The soil is poor, there's no

natural water irrigation. OK, this is nothing thrives in

that region. No crops, no water, no hope.

But Heidi wasn't moved by the conditions.

She wasn't discouraged by what the negative reports that was

going on. She believed that where the

blessing goes, life flows. And so against all odds, they

planted anyway in a famine place.

They sowed in drought. And the miracle happened.

The land started to flourish. Crops sprouted up in the middle

of famine. Over time, the same barren land

became agricultural, A thriving agricultural place to feed the

children and thousands, you know, helping even the

surrounding communities there. Thousands of children, orphans.

They're not just only being fed there, but they are being taught

farming. And here the skeptics and the

critics, they're scratching their heads wondering how can

crops grow in famine when a famine like the answer is simple

blessing of God. It's a blessing of God.

We don't operate just under the natural resources.

We operate under the higher Kingdom principles where the

impossible becomes possible. The blessing will cause you to

succeed in the struggle. What caused you to thrive in

famine? Hallelujah, somebody praise God.

Are you getting this glory to God now?

Just like Isaac, he sowed in famine land and he read a

hundredfold. Just like Joseph prospered in

the pots in the prison, Heidi Baker flourished in a land in

Muslim where they labeled it as useless land, poor.

But she flourished and they still flourishing.

And I'm here to tell somebody that you can prosper right where

you are. You don't have to wait for

things to change. You don't have to wait until the

report changes. Now, you're not waiting to be

placed sometime in the future. You are placed right now right

where you are already placed, right in adversity, placed,

right in difficulty, placed. The placing is still working.

Regardless of the crown or the surroundings that you are in,

the placing is still working. And so it's easy to fall into

this trap of delay thinking like put everything somewhere in the

future. One day when things get better,

I'll enjoy life and I'll get in be my best.

When I get out of this, when I get out of this situation, then

I'll be my best. OK.

And so when this stress is over, then I will get my joy back.

You know when this problem is over then I will enjoy my life

always delaying things for the future.

What a trap of the enemy to wait for the conditions to change.

But God didn't call you to just barely scrape by every problem

and just sit in survival mode. God calls you to 5 in the

famine. Thrive in the problems and the

difficulties in this world and thrive and rejoice regardless of

the chaos around us somebody. And so God wants to show you his

blessing through it all. He wants to show you the joy in

the journey. He wants to give you favour in

the famine. OK and so God is not waiting to

get you out before placing you now He wants to place you in it.

Hallelujah, somebody. So what's the greater testimony?

Let me ask you this, what's the greater testimony?

God that removed the famine or you that reaped a harvest in the

famine? What's the greater testimony?

God removed the fiery furnace or you walking through the fire

under a bird. You see, the greater testimony

is that you got God caused you to thrive in the famine.

Hallelujah, somebody in the difficulty and so let me give

you I want to throw this in another powerful story of

thriving in a famine and it's the one in first Kings chapter

1 Kings 17 · chapter mention

17. Remember the the hopeless widow

and she faced this severe famine and all that she's got, she's

literally up to now she's got 1 handful and full of flour and

one drop of well, barely enough to make one last meal for

herself and her son. And so all of a sudden, I mean,

she's down to nothing. But this prophet showed up, and

then he gives a request that just didn't make sense.

Make me a bread first. OK, Now let's just be honest.

That doesn't sound very fair. Make me a bread first.

OK. Last meal.

Right. OK.

The request seems unreasonable. But she chose obedience over

fear. And so this woman, she made the

decision. Again, we see the same

principle. She made the decision to sow in

famine. It defies logic.

Church, you see, it defends the natural mind, but that's why we

are spiritual to sow in a time of famine.

And so she gave before she had extra.

She released before she saw results.

OK, so she trusted before the provision showed up.

That's sowing by faith. And so the moment she did, she

released the, the miracle was released.

And so the oil kept on flowing and the flower didn't stop.

OK, didn't run out. So watch this now.

God didn't remove the famine. God stepped in.

And so not just one day, not just once off, every single day

of the famine, God sustained her.

Come on, somebody come on, somebody, come on.

God did not remove the famine, but he provided for her.

He sustained her every day during the famine.

Hallelujah. And some of us have been saying,

God, when you breakthrough, when you provide, then I'll give.

That's not the Kingdom way Church.

OK, some of us have been waiting and saying God, I'm waiting for

the breakthrough. When you provide then I will

give. Some of us will be saying listen

when things get better in my life then I'll abide.

God says obey me now. God says honour me now on siege

of faith right now. Trust me in the famine, trust me

in the difficulty situation right now and watch me release

overflow. And so that anointing did not

stop in the Old Testament. It's still moving.

It's still happening today in our lives every day.

Let me share one with you powerful Testament again, Heidi

Baker. They were in Mozambique and they

were ministering there in famine, war, crisis is going on,

starving children, orphans around, no food.

And so there's no help, no way forward in the natural.

All the rice was gone. No more rice, no more food.

The team's desperate, but Heidi Becker, full of faith.

My God, Cathars, the children, Oh my Lord, I feel the presence

of God in this place with empty pots and empty plates.

And she thanked God in advance. Listen, people, there's nothing.

No food. Nothing.

They're starving. She's holding empty pots before

Almighty God. And she praised God.

You multiply. You're the God that multiplies

food. Do it again.

Yeah, today. Do it again, Lord, do it again.

And yes, a supply. Somebody came and they dropped

off rice, the bag of rice. But it wasn't enough until God

touched it, my Lord. Until God touched.

Until God intervened. Because when they started

serving the food, it kept on flowing.

Yeah, Hallelujah. Every bowl was filled with food,

starving. Hundreds of every child was fed.

That's our God. That's our God.

It's hard for fun and he will not let us down.

Regardless of what's happening in this world church, regardless

of the eight times that's happening, God will look after

his people. God will multiply our resources.

He still releases more than enough.

And Heidi said in that moment, they saw the food multiplied,

but not in a flashy way, in a humble, holy way as they kept on

serving. It just kept on.

Somehow there was just always enough.

My God, Hallelujah. Just you may be down to a

handful of hope, just the oil of strength, a small little bit of

oil. Just trust God in your famine.

Trust God in the difficulty. God is about to breathe on it

and multiply you and flourish you multiply you.

Hallelujah, somebody Hallelujah. See, God doesn't have to change

the circumstances. He doesn't have to change the

economy. God doesn't have to change the

famine. He can provide for you in it.

We'll provide in it. So just trust God with your

situation, with what you've got, with the not enough, just a

little and give it to him and trust him and he will release.

He's more than enough. He will multiply just like the

widow. She just what she had.

She trusted God with that and she just gave that.

And when she did, God multiplied and she walked out into

overflow. Overflow.

God didn't bypass the famine, the crisis, the difficulty.

He stayed right into it and he provided there.

He didn't come and rescue the widow out of the famine.

He didn't go and go into Musabi and rescue that you're out of

Musabi. No, we didn't a lift or rescue

the God provided right there in the famine.

Hallelujah. Somebody shot Hallelujah.

He released the provision in the famine that is our garden.

I came to tell somebody today that the same miracle working

power of God, OK, he's walking into your situation right now.

He's stepping into the middle of your difficulty, of your not

enough of your challenge, right in the middle of your

depression, right in the middle of your negative anxiety, right

in the middle of your lack of your challenge of your family,

right in the middle of your midnight crisis.

The God of the universe is stepping right now into your

situation. And so don't delay your

obedience, Hallelujah, because until the famine ends, because

your miracle is not waiting for until the famine ends, your

miracle is really to be released on your obedience today.

So your faith today and watch God step in and multiply and

move on your behalf. Come on, just grab hold of this

word today. The blessing of God on your life

is bigger than any famine. The blessing of God is stronger

than any famine. Now let me throw this one in an

Isaiah chapter 43. It says here.

Isaiah 43 · chapter mention

They walk for miles to get water.

They are. It's incredible how God is

blessing them going from community to community, drilling

water and the community and the villages.

Listen church. It's happening at such a farce

rate. It's incredible.

They are planting churches in villages.

People have never even heard the gospel.

They are planting churches. Hallelujah.

Refund is breaking loose. Listen.

And by the way, church attendance is up even in the UK.

Come on, somebody. What's the what's the stats?

Is it up? It is the percent, yeah.

OK. People are running back to

church because they understand there's a revival happening.

OK. It's happening.

Church. It's happening.

This is the time for the UK. That's right.

And it won't be proven with signs, wonders and miracles, The

God of multiplication, miracles, documented healings that cannot

be denied by doctors or medical that will only give credit to

God. This can only be God and people

walking in meetings like this and nobody even prayed for them,

just walking into the place they got healed of cancer.

Come on, come on church, God is about to practice the river of

God. Now it says here in Isaiah 43

Isaiah 43:19

verse 19, I will even make a way in the wilderness and rivers in

the desert. So God's just offering survival,

OK, He is releasing a supernatural supply.

God is giving you a river in the dry place, in the famine, in the

difficult challenge. God is giving you a a river, a

supply, an overflow. That is more than enough,

abundantly right there in the dry place, releasing a river.

Now the enemy may try and come against you, but he cannot stop

the river, the flood of God. He cannot stop that.

The enemy cannot stop the river, it's too strong.

The river of God is destroyed, is flooding.

The Bible says when the enemy comes in like a fraud, the

spirit of the Lord will raise up a standard against him.

Hallelujah for the river of God. So even when there's fun, as God

has got a river where we tap in God's river, it breaks every

chain, God's river, it breaks every limitation, God's river,

it pushes back the darkness, the river of life pushes the enemy

away. It releases favour and placing

upon your life the river of God. And so I speak prophetic of

every dry area, every barren land, every difficult, every

limitation. God is releasing rivers in your

desert, rivers in your famine, rivers in your family, rivers

into your life, rivers breakthroughs into your

wilderness. You are not breaking down, you

are breaking fruit with somebody, breathe, somebody

short. Hallelujah.

He's got praise and made some noise and rejoice, yes.

So inclusion Joseph in his suffering, he did not name his

second son Lettanis. Bondage, OK.

Betrayal, he named him Ephraim. Ephraim means fruitful in the

land of my suffering. OK, now Genesis 41 verse 52, the

Genesis 41:52

second son he named Ephron, he said it is because God has made

me fruitful in the land of my suffering.

So Joseph knew there's principle that he didn't wait to get out

before he got blessed. I got fruitful in my suffering.

I got blessed. In my suffering, in the land of

my sorrow, in my difficulty, I got blessed.

Joseph understood this principle, fruitful in myself.

And this is a word for somebody. Maybe you feel restricted, maybe

you feel trapped, but God sent me to tell you today that you

can make you fruitful in the land of your suffering.

OK, Fruitful in the land of yourself.

Fruitful, blessed in the difficulty.

Look at our example. Apostle Paul, chained alone,

locked up in prison. Instead of complaining, he

started speaking, he started writing.

Out of the prison came letters that would shake the world from

prison. Stuck in prison, fruitful in the

land of my suffering, a pistols of revelations that is still

transforming lives today. Church, listen as we come to the

end of the measure. I believe God is about to

prosper you in the pressure, prosper you in the difficulty,

in the challenge. So don't wait for things to

change. The don't wait for change to

fall. Let your hearts cry be this

morning, Lord, make me fruitful, right?

Yes, make me fruitful in my situation.

Maybe I don't like the job. Maybe I don't like the economy,

that I like what's going on, but make me fruitful in my home, in

my family in this situation, make me fruitful in the land of

my suffering, right? Get in the pressure, make me

fruitful in the pain, in the difficulty, in the delay,

fruitful in the land of my suffering, blessed in famine.

Amen. Let's all stand together.

Praise God, somebody, Hallelujah, Hallelujah.

Stand to your feet right now. I believe God speaking into

hearts, lives and this message, it's a divine invitation to

trust God in your famine. Trust God in your dry places.

See, trusting to see provision in your darkest hour.

Some of you've walked in here today feeling overwhelmed, over

burdened, overtired, stressed out, discouraged.

You've been struggling, wondering if God even see you in

your drought. You've prayed, you've wondered

God, do you see me? Yes, He, God knows what you're

going through. God knows the drought you've

been going through and is not ignoring you.

He's calling you. He loves you and he's standing

right beside you ready to pour out his favor and his blessing

upon your life. So this altar call is for anyone

who is ready to thrive. If that's you today and this is

your hearts cry and it's stirring in your spirit today.

And you say, God, I'm ready to thrive.

OK, Because it's coming to a place where we like, I'm fed up

of just surviving survival mode through another difficult,

another challenge. This goes longer survival.

God wants us to thrive and be placed in the famine.

So if this altar core is for you and you say that is you, you

want to thrive, put up your hand right now.

If your heart says God, I trust you in the famine and make me

fruitful in this dry plane, lift your hands, open your heart.

I'm going to pray. Father, I thank you that your

blessing is greater than any famine, stronger than any

drought. And right now, Lord, I speak to

every person under the sound of my voice.

I declare that no matter what dry season they might be walking

through, no matter what famine they might be facing, Lord, that

I will not just survive, but I will thrive.

Father, release supernatural provision into their lives right

now. Let them experience the fine

abundance, overflow, multiply their resources, multiply their

strength, multiply their faith. Can't, like Joseph, prosper Your

people like Isaac caused them to reap a hundredfold like the

widow who trusted you. Let they say fly, never run dry.

I buy every spin of fear. I buy every spin of

discouragement, doubt in the feet, I pray every curse, every

negative word that is spoken against God's people.

I come against every evil religious spirit of stealing,

killing and destruction. Every spirit of Goddess vicinity

is surviving, it's just getting by.

God I pray that you will release and lose upon us.

How the flow? Lord, we declare we are Privy,

we are fruitful, we are placed in Jesus mighty name.

Somebody shine. Hallelujah.

Now let's all declare out loud with boulders.

Everybody say rubbers are springing up in my desert.

I'm not just surviving, I am thriving.

I'm not waiting to be blessed. I'm already blessed right here,

right now, even in famine. I am thriving because God is

with me. Even in famine I have more than

enough. I am blessed.

I am fruitful. Fry me.

The mighty name of Jesus Christ the Son on conversation are

Jesus Christ Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ is not enlightened. Hallelujah, we celebrate what

God's doing right now. Lives are changing, miracles are

manifested, all destinies are changing.

You're no longer just surviving, you are thriving.

I'm decree and declare by fire in your forest in the name of

Jesus, you thrive, you thrive, you thrive in Jesus name.

Now, just before I close, if you've never invited Jesus into

your life, if you need a fresh start, the clean slate, this is

your time right here, right now. Let today be your story where

your story changes. Let this be your moment.

I want to give you an opportunity to give your life to

Jesus. So if that's you, I invite you

to lift up your hand. If you say yes, this is my

moment. Let's pray out loud.

Jesus, I invite you to come into my life, dear my Lord, and my

sight. I repent of my sin.

Come into my heart. I give you my life for me with

your spirit.
