*Wednesday 6th November, 2023.**God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem, and Canaan shall be his servant.*(Genesis 9:27)
Noah cursed Canaan, Ham's son, to be a servant to Ham's brothers.
The curse applied to their descendants as well. The previous verse extended Ham's curse with a comparative blessing of his brother Shem.
Now Noah blesses Ham's other brother, Japheth. God will "enlarge" Japheth or extend his territory. In addition, Japheth's descendants will live in (or among) the tents of Shem.
The family line of Shem will eventually lead to God's people Israel, through Abraham and Isaac (Genesis 11:10–27; Genesis 21:1–3). This same family line will also produce the Messiah, Jesus (Luke 3:36).
However, it is not clear what it means that Japheth's people will live in or among the tents of Israel, or when that prophecy was fulfilled. Scholars have suggested many options, but none are conclusive.
In any case, the curse on Canaan's descendants is repeated a third time, giving it unusual emphasis in Scripture.
Canaan's people will be successful in many ways, and often will hold an advantage over other people and nations.
However, their fate will always come to the same eventual conclusion: failure, due to their opposition to God's chosen people. While the Hebrew language used here does not suggest that Canaan's children will become the literal slaves, the forced servants of Japheth's people or Shem's people, it does indicate a lack of favor.
The Message:
1. Let all the children respect their parents and their private lives inclusive (Ephesians 6:1-3).
2. Everyone needs to have regard for their spiritual parents also and most especially those who are laboring or had labored over them (Ephesians 6:1).
3. God sees what you think He didn't see.
4. A respectful child shall always be blessed. Be respectful and cultured.
5. A disrespectful child will not escape the wrath of God.
6. God will always visit the iniquities of the parents on their children. Therefore, parents are encouraged to live well for the sake of their children/future(Genesis 20:5).
7. The parents are expected to live rightly before their children. They should strive to leave a good legacy behind for their children (Ephesians 6:4).
8. You can be blessed only if you can have regard for your heavenly Father because if you have the fear of God in you, there is no one you will not be able to respect.
*I, therefore pray for you:*
You will not mess your life up yourself.
Your future will not become shattered before yourself.
You will not bring a curse upon your family.
The generational curse will not begin with you.
You will not misbehave before your destiny bearer and helper.
You will not suffer for the sin you never committed.
You will not become a slave to your siblings, cousins, and your mates in the name of Jesus Christ.
Your parents will not lead you against God.
You will not lose your honor before your parents and God.
Your misbehavior will not tear off your garment of favor in the name of Jesus Christ.
You will be blessed above your equal.
God will bless you.
Nations will serve you.
The world at large will bow before you.
You will rule over your generations and the generations coming after you in the name of Jesus Christ.
God will honor and bless your sincerity of heart.
Your good work and attitude will speak better and positively at the peak of your success in the name of Jesus Christ.
Your children shall be better, greater, and wealthier than you in the name of Jesus Christ.
Good morning, stay safe, and do have a blessed midweek in the name of Jesus Christ.
Shalom!!!
