INCREASE IS COMING TO MY HOUSE
Scripture Reading
“The Lord shall increase you more and more, you and your children.”
— Psalm 115:14 (KJV)
Message
God is a God of increase. Throughout Scripture, we see His desire to bring His people into greater fruitfulness, capacity, and usefulness. Increase is not merely about having more possessions; it is about having more grace, wisdom, strength, resources, and opportunities to fulfill His purpose.
The psalmist declared that the Lord would increase His people and their children. This reminds us that God’s blessing can extend beyond an individual to the household. When God brings increase into a home, it can create stability, provide opportunities, strengthen relationships, and enable the family to become a blessing to others.
However, increase requires stewardship. We should not only pray for God to bring more into our hands; we should also ask Him to give us the wisdom to manage what He provides. A household that receives increase without discipline can quickly lose it, but a household guided by wisdom can turn increase into lasting fruitfulness.
God may bring increase through new work, business opportunities, improved skills, wise investments, unexpected favor, or simply greater wisdom in managing existing resources. We should remain alert to the opportunities He places before us.
Do not despise your current beginning. What seems small today can become the foundation for something much greater tomorrow. Be faithful with what you have, work diligently, plan wisely, and trust God with the results.
Let your prayer be not only, “Lord, increase my house,” but also, “Lord, make my house ready for increase.”
May your home become a place of peace, wisdom, provision, generosity, and purpose.
