From Our Pastor's Desk - October is Our Month of Double Portion

By Pastor 'Deji Adewale

Welcome to this Our New Month of Double Portion, in Jesus name.

Portion means an individual quantity or allotment of something taken as part of its whole. When someone receives a double portion, he gets a portion (slice, quantity, amount or piece) twice as much as that given to others.

In Isaiah 61:7 – “For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them” God promises a double portion of joy and blessing upon His children.

In 2nd Kings 2:9, Elisha asked Elijah “I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me” Elisha was to be considered the successor of Elijah and to be “doubly blessed” with power in the prophetic office.

He received his request. The many miracles Elisha performed confirm that he had indeed been granted a double portion. From Jacob to Joseph in Genesis 48:22 – “Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy brethren…” 

This month of Double Portion, the Lord will doubly bless every Mercy Seatizen, with power, grace, increase, joy, promotion and anointing.

He will anoint thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows, in Jesus Name.

Amen.
