I am sending you grain, new wine and oil,
enough to satisfy you fully...
The people of Judah were experiencing a time of grievous affliction. All their land was affected by the locust and caterpillar. When they turned from their ways and prayed that God would spare them, He responded with this promise. He promised to restore them their forfeited comforts.
Have you been through a time of pain, hurt, distress, loss, or grief? God’s promises are real answers to the prayers of faith. Your Loving Father says to you today, "I am sending you grain, new wine and oil, enough to satisfy you fully...". Never again will you be an object of scorn.
These words are a promise of restoration. It is a promise, which when manifested, will be unspeakably better than you have seen or imagined. This restoration will be such that everyone will know it is your Almighty, Loving Father that did it for you. And you will be satisfied as a result.
Suggestions for Prayer: Thank God for the promise of restoration. If there is any area of your life that you are believing God for a restoration, thank God in faith, that He has done it for you.

Suggested General Prayer Point - Pray for the homeless. Pray for their guidance and protection, even as they await the promises of God.

God's Love and Mine...
