Reading 1, Hebrews 10:11-18
Hebrews 10:11-18 GNBDK
[11] Every Jewish priest performs his services every day and offers the same sacrifices many times; but these sacrifices can never take away sins.
[12] Christ, however, offered one sacrifice for sins, an offering that is effective for ever, and then he sat down at the right-hand side of God.
[13] There he now waits until God puts his enemies as a footstool under his feet.
[14] With one sacrifice, then, he has made perfect for ever those who are purified from sin.
[15] And the Holy Spirit also gives us his witness. First he says:
[16] “This is the covenant that I will make with them in the days to come, says the Lord: I will put my laws in their hearts and write them on their minds.”
[17] And then he says, “I will not remember their sins and evil deeds any longer.”
[18] So when these have been forgiven, an offering to take away sins is no longer needed.
Responsorial Psalm, Psalms 110:1, 2, 3, 4
R. (4b) You are a priest for ever, in the line of Melchizedek.
The LORD said to my Lord: “Sit at my right hand till I make your enemies your footstool.”
R. You are a priest for ever, in the line of Melchizedek.
The scepter of your power the LORD will stretch forth from Zion: “Rule in the midst of your enemies.”
R. You are a priest for ever, in the line of Melchizedek.
“Yours is princely power in the day of your birth, in holy splendor; before the daystar, like the dew, I have begotten you.”
R. You are a priest for ever, in the line of Melchizedek.
The LORD has sworn, and he will not repent: “You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.”
R. You are a priest for ever, in the line of Melchizedek.
Gospel, Mark 4:1-20
Mark 4:1-20 GNBDK
[1] Again Jesus began to teach beside Lake Galilee. The crowd that gathered round him was so large that he got into a boat and sat in it. The boat was out in the water, and the crowd stood on the shore at the water's edge.
[2] He used parables to teach them many things, saying to them:
[3] “Listen! Once there was a man who went out to sow corn. [4] As he scattered the seed in the field, some of it fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up.
[5] Some of it fell on rocky ground, where there was little soil. The seeds soon sprouted, because the soil wasn't deep.
[6] Then, when the sun came up, it burnt the young plants; and because the roots had not grown deep enough, the plants soon dried up.
[7] Some of the seed fell among thorn bushes, which grew up and choked the plants, and they didn't produce any corn.
[8] But some seeds fell in good soil, and the plants sprouted, grew, and produced corn: some had thirty grains, others sixty, and others 100.”
[9] And Jesus concluded, “Listen, then, if you have ears!”
[10] When Jesus was alone, some of those who had heard him came to him with the twelve disciples and asked him to explain the parables.
[11] “You have been given the secret of the Kingdom of God,” Jesus answered. “But the others, who are on the outside, hear all things by means of parables,
[12] so that, ‘They may look and look, yet not see; they may listen and listen, yet not understand. For if they did, they would turn to God, and he would forgive them.’ ”
[13] Then Jesus asked them, “Don't you understand this parable? How, then, will you ever understand any parable?
[14] The sower sows God's message.
[15] Some people are like the seeds that fall along the path; as soon as they hear the message, Satan comes and takes it away.
[16] Other people are like the seeds that fall on rocky ground. As soon as they hear the message, they receive it gladly.
[17] But it does not sink deep into them, and they don't last long. So when trouble or persecution comes because of the message, they give up at once.
[18] Other people are like the seeds sown among the thorn bushes. These are the ones who hear the message,
[19] but the worries about this life, the love for riches, and all other kinds of desires crowd in and choke the message, and they don't bear fruit.
[20] But other people are like the seeds sown in good soil. They hear the message, accept it, and bear fruit: some thirty, some sixty, and some 100.”
Dearest Father,
Thank You for 30, 60, 100, and a 1000-fold return on all my investments in time, talent, and treasure as is written in the Gospel today.
Mark 4:20
[20] But other people are like the seeds sown in good soil. They hear the message, accept it, and bear fruit: some thirty, some sixty, and some 100.”
I'm really just amazed how You hear all my thoughts.
A few days ago, I just fleetingly wondered where in Scriptures I could find the verse where it said “30, 60,100-fold.”
I could have looked it up but I just didn't take the time. Although, every day, I claimed it from You, Lord.
Now it’s the Gospel today.
You see, around 2022, I was on my daily walk and was contemplating on Genesis 26:12 where it says about Isaac sowing in famine and reaping a 100-fold return.
Genesis 26:1, 12 GNBDK
[1] There was another famine in the land besides the earlier one during the time of Abraham. Isaac went to Abimelech, king of the Philistines, at Gerar.
[12] Isaac sowed seed in that land, and that year he harvested a hundred times as much as he had sown, because the LORD blessed him.
The Lord gave me that message when I was experiencing a great financial famine and He inspired me to start partnering with a ministry as my sowing.
He led me to Gary Kasee who taught me my role in God's Kingdom as a child and heir of the King with authority to declare His will over my life. I don't have to beg for mercy and pity whenever I pray but stand in confidence before the throne of God's grace as His behoved child clothed with the Blood of the Lamb.
That's when I stopped crying about my financial worries as a major provider of my extended family and started claiming and declaring God's words more powerfully.
So I sowed 10% of my income as seed offering into Garee Kasee’s ministry aside from my 10% tithe to my local church.
Then I started claiming Genesis 26:12 on my daily walks for a hundredfold return.
But suddenly, You also brought this Gospel to my mind, of the 30-60-100 fold return of Mark 4:20.
Here, I'll share with you my Scripture Journal entry for September 24, 2022, and let's all learn from it.
24 September, 2022 - Consider it done
Psalm 90
17 May the sweetness of the Lord be upon us, to confirm the work we have done!
Child, when I say something, consider it done.
Done because of My finished work on the cross.
When I said, "It is finished!", I'm saying it is done!
You have everything you need for life, spirituality, and prosperity.
So I was walking meditating on Genesis 26:12-14 and actually speaking it to myself:
Like Isaac, I sowed in famine in the land the Lord has shown me and I reap in the same year…
And then, suddenly, Mark 4:20 came to me:
30 - I have £1M in reserve,
60 - I own a £100M company, and
100 fold return - I earn £120B/month in recurring residual profits from multiple passive income rivers quickly, easily, and effortlessly, doing what I love and enjoy, working whenever, wherever I want with my family and friends in a business empire and financial dynasty God has established for me, giving me and my family total time and financial freedom, but most importantly, generating 99% tithe for generations to come.
These are what I've been claiming for since I felt the desire to become an entrepreneur and be in business to fund the work of God in the world and become a source and symbol of blessing according to Zech 8:13:
Among the other nations, Judah and Israel became symbols of a cursed nation. But no longer! Now I will rescue you and make you both a symbol and a source of blessing. So don’t be afraid. Be strong, and get on with rebuilding the Temple!
Zechariah 8:13 NLT
I forgot that this was the initial vision You had given me when You first gave me that desire to be in business: You will rescue me and make me both a symbol and source of blessing. I just have to be strong and get on with rebuilding the Temple.
That was my assignment: rebuilding the Temple, the people of God.
I was in Cardiac Rehab then, as a nurse. Now that I'm in Media and Publishing as a virtual assistant, I totally forgot about that specific assignment, rebuilding the Temple. I thought You gave me this one when I was starting my digital content and e-commerce business: proclaiming the Good News to the afflicted (Luke 4:18).
But in essence, that is the same assignment - rebuilding the Temple. It just got more specific. I will rebuild Your temple, Your people, by inspiring and encouraging them with Your Word and the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Really, Lord, my hundredfold return this year is £120B/month? £1M in reserve, which I've started claiming this month, is just a 30-fold return, and the £100M company, that I've been claiming since I desired to be in business in 1996, to make me a billionaire, just 60-fold return?
I remember I just started claiming £120B/Month recurring profits, to make me a trillionaire, just last year, 2021, when You showed me a digital and e-commerce business that I can do and have inspired me to start.
Really, all 30-60-100-fold returns, all in the same year?
Why, is anything too hard for Me to do?
“Where is Sarah, your wife?” the visitors asked. “She’s inside the tent,” Abraham replied. Then one of them said, “I will return to you about this time next year, and your wife, Sarah, will have a son!” Sarah was listening to this conversation from the tent. Abraham and Sarah were both very old by this time, and Sarah was long past the age of having children. So she laughed silently to herself and said, “How could a worn-out woman like me enjoy such pleasure, especially when my master—my husband—is also so old?” Then the Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh? Why did she say, ‘Can an old woman like me have a baby?’ Is anything too hard for the Lord? I will return about this time next year, and Sarah will have a son.”
Genesis 18:9-14 NLT
Nothing, Lord. Everything is possible for You. And everything is possible for me, and anyone, who believes.
Do you believe I can do this?
Yes, Lord. In fact, I'd love for You to do it.
I want you extremely rich so you can fund the assignments I tell you to. I want you rich at all times so you can be generous on every occasion.
Do you trust me to manage that much money?
That's why I'm training you to listen and obey Me in every little thing. Only when You learn to obey all that I want you to do will these blessings of Obedience come to you.
Also, what is a year to Me?
Yeah, I just remembered the Responsorial Psalm today:
4 A thousand years are to you like a yesterday which has passed, like a watch of the night. Psalm 90
You are right when you say, "You don't know how this will happen but you know Who will make this happen." Cause as I've said, I will do the doing and you do the believing.
I'm so excited, Lord. I'm even excited with the $1M in reserve You told me to claim, how much more the fulfillment of my lifelong dream of becoming a billionaire, and now even a trillionaire, just so I can display Your glory.
Oh, I now remember why I desired to become a billionaire. It's because when You said You will make me a source and symbol of blessing, I thought, what's a clear symbol that a person is financially blessed? Become a billionaire! That way, I can not only become a symbol but also a source of blessing. Cause then I will have more than I need. I can give 90% and still live well off with the 10%!
I thought that was the highest I can attain to, financially. But then last year, I stumbled upon a video that talked about the 15 trillionaires of the world, one including Solomon with a worth of 2.2 trillion, I guess, if I'm not mistaken. And I suddenly thought, wow, there's something higher than billionaires that really existed in our world? And to think Solomon became extremely rich because You blessed him!
That's how I started claiming 120B/Month in recurring, residual, passive profits. So I can be a trillionaire!
A while ago, when walking, I always look up, as You said to me, and I marveled at the beautiful, beautiful sky with the amazing cloud formation. And I prayed that You display Your glory in my life as clearly as You do in the sky.
Why do you think I let you claim the 30-60-100 fold return all in the same year? Exactly to display My glory.
Then do it, Lord. Have Your way in me. As always, I pray, do in me what You must, in order to do through me what You will.
In that same year, on my birthday in November, I discovered a teaching on YouTube about 1,000-fold return from Deuteronomy 1:11.
May the Lord, the God of my fathers, increase you a thousand-fold more than you are and bless you, just as He has promised you!
Deuteronomy 1:11 NASB1995
So now I've been claiming that too.
May the Lord, the God of my fathers, increase me a thousand-fold more than I am and bless me, just as He has promised me!
I've made this as one of my two vision boards that I always look at when I'm working on my desk:
Now I'm claiming all 30-60-100-10000-fold returns.
Why not? Why leave anything on the table?
God, our Father, Who's super rich has already given them to us, by His grace. We don't deserve it. He just gives it without any strings attached.
That's grace.
This morning, after receiving Jesus in the Holy Communion, I was about to turn back to my seat when my eye caught this t-shirt design about grace. It's this:
G - God's
R - Riches
A - at
C - Christ’s
E - Expense.
Today, let's receive the grace of God. Let us be good soil that hears God’s word and believes, and bears fruit in our lives 30-60-100-1000 fold return.
In Jesus’ Name!
