2 Corinthians 12:9 “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness” ’

DAILY READING ; • John 7:25-52; 1 Chronicles 29; Zechariah13

This month the nation of Israel celebrates 73 years of their independence.
The independence of modern Israel was an answer to prayers and a dream come true.

For 2000 years, the Jews were wanderers among the nations. They were attacked and scattered from their homeland by the Roman army in AD 70 . Thereafter, they were forced into years of long exile, however in all their ordeal, the Jewish people remained faithful to the dream of returning to their own homeland one day.
They never ceased to pray and hope for their return and restoration of their national freedom.

Over the centuries, attempts to go back to their homeland were resisted by the Arabs who had taken over their territories.
However, the killing of 6 million Jews in the Holocaust ignited the desperate desire to return to their homeland. The fact that no single country was willing to give the Jews a home, made urgent the need for a Jewish state.

Following World War II, hundreds of thousands of Jews tried to return to Israel, but the British government in control of Palestine at the time refused them entrance.

However these Jews found other ways to migrate to Palestine. Despite restrictions, waves of Jewish immigration to the Land of ancient Israel continued secretly, as the Jews slowly regained control of the region.

The Long awaited opportunity to have their own state came in the month of May 1948, as the British rule in Palestine expired.
On May 14, 1948, the eve of Britain’s departure, David Ben Gurion declared the establishment of the State of Israel at a ceremony in Tel Aviv.
There was immense joy all over the Jewish world at this news.
However, the next day, the new state was invaded by the armies of Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, and Iraq.
In the ensuing war of independence, the Jews were eventually victorious.
They not only defeated their enemies but also expanded their territory in the process.
This marked the beginning of a new Jewish nation that is today a leader in many fields and respected among the nations.
Since its establishment, the hand of God has indeed distinguished Israel and turned the tiny Jewish nation into a sign and wonder to the world

The Jew’s Long awaited opportunity for a new beginning came in the month of May.
Interestingly the month of May is a month of new beginnings in nature, which sees new births in animals and new bloom in plants.
It is a month when renewal is brought to the earth.

May is the fifth month and the number 5 symbolizes God’s grace, goodness and favor.
By definition the word “May” means possibility; opportunity or permission; or to express wish or prayer.
By implication therefore, this month of May will be a month of possibility and opportunity.
In this month of May God will enable us to access doors of breakthrough that have not been accessible before. In this season, God is giving us leverage in the spirit realm to be bold, to step out and take new territories.
God’s sufficient grace has been made available for us through the Blood of Jesus.
No matter how uncertain global situations may seem currently, let us be assured that we have been granted the grace to shine as light in the midst of the darkness.
And because, the path of the just is as a shinning light that shines brighter and brighter, things can only keep getting better for us.

Certainly, God will go before us to make every crooked path straight.

In Isaiah 45;2 God says ‘I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron’

Indeed by the Blood of Jesus, throughout this month of May, we shall enjoy divine speed and supernatural favor because of God’s grace.
it is our season to see exploits, miracles, signs and wonders.

It is a month of divine opportunities. Doors shall be opening for us into new amazing levels.
We will be engraced by the Spirit of God to exceed expectations and indeed be a sign and wonder to all..
Let us therefore, begin to move by faith, believing God for unprecedented opportunities and breakthroughs.
Certainly, by the power in the Blood of Jesus nothing shall stop us from experiencing the grace and glory God has ordained for us in this season.

PRAYER: Lord, I thank You because I know that through the Blood of Jesus this month shall be an amazing month of divine grace for me. Indeed I shall be experiencing new dimensions of supernatural favour and breakthroughs that will turn me into a wonder in Jesus Name.
