Friday Miracle Overnight – 6th Dec-24
Matthew 2:1-8
The wise men came to Jesus because they saw the star. A star is composed of fine dust and gases that, when combined, create a spark. This dust represents both spirit and flesh—when the two come together, they form something extraordinary. That’s why people refer to celebrities as “stars.” There is something within them—a unique combination of talent (flesh) and inspiration (spirit)—that makes them shine.
However, the star that the wise men saw was no ordinary star. It was extraordinary, aligning seven stars into one magnificent sight. Unlike the sun, which rises from east to west daily, these wise men saw the star before those in the west. As Copernicus noted, the east is ahead in time.
During my visit to Tonga, a place where the sun rises earlier than anywhere else, I marveled at the culture and people. They used bark cloth as both mats and garments and lived in a kingdom rich with tradition. The sun in Tonga rises at 3 a.m. with a brightness comparable to midday in Kampala. It reminded me of how the wise men followed the star westward, moving by night and resting during the day.
Child of God, the anointing on these wise men enabled them to succeed where others had failed. Likewise, you will succeed where others have faltered. When others rest, you will rise and achieve. Declare it: I will succeed where everyone else has failed.
The wise men saw the star, but the people in Jerusalem did not. Herod himself, though informed, lacked understanding of worship and divine purpose. He said, “Go and find the child, then tell me so I may worship Him,” but he had no intention of doing so. Herod’s ignorance highlights a key truth: not everyone around you will understand what God has revealed to you.
Tell the person next to you: Simply because we are related or live in the same country does not mean you understand what I know. Your uniqueness is God-ordained. You are not ordinary. Speak this over yourself: I am destined for greatness.
When the wise men found Jesus, they worshiped Him and presented treasures of gold, frankincense, and myrrh—each symbolizing divinity, worship, and preservation. These gifts financed the journey of Jesus and established a precedent for investing in God’s kingdom.
Child of God, the anointing of the wise men is upon you. The things God is about to do in your life will astonish those around you. When others fail to support or acknowledge you, don’t despair. What you are about to produce will surpass anything they have.
Raise your hand and declare: Heavenly Father, in the mighty name of Jesus, I receive the anointing of the wise men.
The wise men’s wisdom extended to knowing what to give, when, and to whom. They financed the work of God without hesitation. Consider Joseph, who failed to leverage the connections with the kings to whom he had access. Don’t make the same mistake. Understand what God is doing in your life and act on it.
You didn’t come to this moment by accident. You are here to be anointed, transformed, and used by God. What God is doing in your life is unique—it’s not happening to everyone. Raise your hand and say: Lord, help me understand what You are doing in my life.
Like the wise men, let your words and actions be backed by proof. The anointing upon you will transform your life, your family, and your community. Child of God, like Abraham, through you, all the families of the earth shall be blessed (Genesis 12:3). You are here to be anointed for greatness. Raise your hand and say: “Heavenly Father, let me understand what You are doing in my life. Fill me, transform me, and use me for Your glory.”
The God who performed miracles for others will do the same for you. Raise your hand and declare: Heavenly Father, I am ready to receive and walk in the anointing of the wise men.
Let me share a testimony:
On Tuesday, December 3rd, we visited the Rukumba family in Rushere, Kiruhura district, for a powerful thanksgiving service and Miracle Crussade. This family was thanking God for an extraordinary miracle. Mrs. Esther Rukumba, the matriarch of the house, had fallen gravely ill. She reached the brink of death, and at one point, it was reported that she had passed away. However, God had a different plan.
The family rushed her from Rushere to multiple hospitals in Kampala, and she was admitted to the ICU. This woman of God had raised daughters who were not only strong in faith but also unwavering in their belief in the power of prayer. During a service, these daughters stormed the stage, desperate for a breakthrough. They declared, “Our mother is dying, and she’s in a coma. Pastor, you cannot continue preaching—we need you to come.”
I told them, “I’m not going. I’m still preaching.” They insisted, “No! We’ve been here since morning. You must come with us.” At that moment, the Spirit of God directed me to give them a handkerchief instead. I handed it to them, and they went back to their mother in faith. When they placed the handkerchief on her, the miraculous happened: Mrs. Rukumba woke up from her coma.
Two days later, she was brought to a service in a hospital ambulance, accompanied by four nurses. They arrived early, and she rested as the service went on. At around 4 a.m., I prayed for her. She was still frail—more dead than alive—but God’s power moved mightily. That woman, who had been at the edge of death, received complete healing. Today, she is stronger than ever before!
When we visited the Rukumba home, their testimony had drawn thousands of people to their compound. Many came not only to witness the miracle but also to receive their own breakthroughs and to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. It became a grand crusade, a celebration of God’s faithfulness right in their home.
The atmosphere was filled with joy and praise. People came from far and wide, and the Rukumba family ensured everyone was fed. There was singing, dancing, and rejoicing as the power of God was evident to all.
This is what I want you to take to heart: Just as God moved in the Rukumba family, He will move in your family. Your home will become a place of testimonies and transformation. People will gather to witness God’s work in your life. They will see your children, your blessings, and your breakthroughs, and they will give glory to God. You are destined to be a miracle that transforms not only your family but also your community.
