Topic: NO MORE BARRENNESS

Memory Verse: Exodus 23:26 – There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil.
Bible Reading: Psalm 128:1-6

Message: Barrenness can also be described as fruitless efforts. It could take different forms, some of which could include physical, material, academic or ministerial barrenness. I pray that the Almighty God will put an end to every form of barrenness in your life today, in Jesus’ name.

Physical barrenness refers to when a married couple is childless. One of my daughters was told that there was no way she could carry a child because her womb was blocked. At one of our programmes, God spoke through me that there was someone whom the doctor had said couldn’t have a child, but that the fellow would have twins. She believed the prophecy and held on to God’s word. To the glory of God, she became pregnant and went abroad to deliver through a caesarean section. To the surprise of the surgeons, she didn’t even have a womb. This was about twenty years ago. Recently, I got a phone call from this daughter of mine, and she said she wanted to bring the twins to me for a visit. I was surprised when she arrived, because she was carrying a new set of twins. The first set were now in the University and God, in His mercy, gave her another set of twins. God did what only He can do. If He could do it for that daughter of mine and you have been asking Him for a child, He will give you twins also, in Jesus’ name.

Material barrenness refers to when a person works tirelessly with nothing to show for it – like Peter, who fished all night and caught nothing (Luke 5:51. Thankfully, Peter accepted Jesus into his boat, obeyed the Lord’s instruction and got a net breaking catch (Luke 5:1-7).

An example of academic barrenness is when a lecturer works very hard but can not publish papers and as a result, does not get promoted. Such people are referred to as academically barren. Ministerial barrenness can be observed when a pastor prays, fasts and evangelises but his Church does not grow.

Whatever form barrenness might have taken in your life or in the lives of your loved ones, I declare that it shall ome to an end today, in Jesus’ name.

Hymn: The Great Physician Now Is Near
Points: Pray with Deuteronomy 28:12 and personalise the declarations in it.
Bible in one year: John 1, John 2

Title: The Great Physician Now is Near.
Chorus: Sweetest note in seraph song
Sweetest name on mortal tongue
Sweetest carol ever sung
Jesus, Blessed Jesus..

  1. The great Physician now is near,

The sympathizing Jesus;
He speaks the drooping heart to cheer,
Oh, hear the voice of Jesus.

  2. Your many sins are all forgiven,

Oh, hear the voice of Jesus;
Go on your way in peace to heaven,
And wear a crown with Jesus.

  3. All glory to the dying Lamb!

I now believe in Jesus;
I love the blessed Saviour’s name,
I love the name of Jesus.

  4. His name dispels my guiU and fear,

No other name but Jesus
Oh! how my soul delights to hear
The precious name of Jesus.
