TEXT: "Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God" (2Cor 1:4)

Glory to God for giving us the gift of another day. We are blessed so we could bless others around us. Beloved, when the Lord walked through the valley of the shadow of death with you, when He stood by you during a faith-stretching health or financial crisis, He did it with more on His mind than just your welfare. He cares for you no doubt about that, but He also likes to see a profitable return on every investment He makes on your life. He was with you in all those challenging days, saw you through them all so that you can be a blessing to others who are going through same thing. 

According to apostle Paul in today's anchor scripture, God is saying to you and me: "The same comfort that I gave you, I expect you to give to others." He did not give you that financial blessing just so you could be numbered among the richest in your State or country. No! God expects you to give the same financial blessing to someone else who is in need of it.

Maybe you would have gone to jail or would have been dead, bankrupt, or sick, but God's mercy showed up for you. You are still alive by the grace and mercy of God. God is saying to you today: "In My mercy I kept you when you should have been caught. I preserved you when you should have been dead. I lifted you up when you should have gone bankrupt." Now it is your turn to comfort others who are going through similar situation. This is the secret on how to be profitable to God and humanity.

Am I overemphasizing this? Absolutely no! Why do I dedicate days to examine just one point - Blessed to be a blessing? It's because of what God wants to do among us. He said to me that He will be raising among us in the MTD Family from this year 2022 onwards, financial giants, solution providers, helpers of many destinies. And to see this happen, we must align ourselves with the scriptural principles. For those who are wondering why we have been emphasising on giving to kingdom assignment and to one another, the reason is for us to know what to do to be enlisted among the financial giants, solution providers and raisers of many destinies of our time. 

PRAYER: I pray for you today, you shall not be left out of this blessing, in Jesus name.

DAILY CONFESSION: This year 2022, I am more than conqueror by the Power of the Holy Spirit therefore I will continue to celebrate all through the year, hallelujah!
