The Lord awakened me several mornings ago at 4:44 a.m. This morning, I was awakened at 3:33. Today is December 22nd. As I was pondering these numbers, the Lord quickened to me that He is releasing a double portion to His ministers in the new year! This will be a double portion of His presence and anointing, a double portion of wisdom and revelation, a double portion of provision and finances.
Job 42:10 - "And the Lord restored the fortunes of Job when he prayed for his friends, and the Lord increased all that Job had twofold."
Isa.61:6,7 - "But you will be called the priests of the Lord. You will be spoken of as ministers of our God. You will eat the wealth of nations, and in their riches you will boast. Instead of your shame, you will have a double portion.... Therefore, they will possess a double portion in their land. Everlasting joy will be theirs."
A couple of months ago, the Lord revealed that where we have previously walked alone (as one), He will now bring a new relationship into our lives. The application may be in the form of a new ministry partner, a mate, or a business relationship. This is because "two are better than one, for they have a good return for their labor." (Ecc.4:9). Again, we see the emphasis on "double".
Nugget of Gold: The promise of a double portion belongs to those who are walking in covenant relationship with the Lord - His ministers! God is not only rewarding us for our faithful service, but He is equipping us to stand strong and do exploits for His Kingdom. We are entering a time when the world system will be growing darker and darker. However, this coming decade will mark the period that God's glorious church began to rise up and shine with His glory! Amen.
