“For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the Lord, which run to and fro through the whole earth.” Zechariah 4:10KJV.
Never despise little things. The Bible often illustrates that outstanding outcome stem from humble beginnings. Zechariah 4:10 emphasizes that the Lord values small beginnings, and those who trust in Him will witness their growth into significant achievements. Think of it, everyone started life as a small thing. The parable of the mustard seed, found in Matthew 13:31–32, highlights how the smallest of seeds can grow into the largest of garden plants. Similarly, David, a shepherd boy, defeated the giant Goliath with just a slingshot and a few stones, demonstrating that God can use the seemingly insignificant to achieve the extraordinary.
Throughout the Bible, we see how God multiplies and blesses the little we offer in faith. In the New Testament, Jesus fed five thousand men with five loaves and two fishes (John 6:9–13). This miracle shows God can multiply what we think is insufficient. Another powerful example is the story of the widow and her jar of oil in 2 Kings 4:1-7. The prophet Elisha instructed her to collect empty vessels and pour her small amount of oil into them. Miraculously, the oil did not run out until all the vessels were filled, providing enough to pay her debts and sustain her family. These stories remind us that when we are faithful with the little we have, God can magnify it beyond our imagination. So, never despise the day of small things, for in God's hands, they hold the potential for greatness.
Prophetic Word: The Lord is speaking to you today: Do not despise the small things, for I am the God of multiplication and abundance. Just as I took the five loaves and two fishes and fed thousands, I will take the little you have and expand it beyond your wildest dreams. I see your faithfulness in small matters, and I will reward you openly. The small beginnings you see now are the foundation for the great things I am preparing for you. Trust in My timing and My ways, for I am orchestrating your steps. You will see the fruit of your labor, and your small beginnings will lead to a harvest of abundance. The oil of your efforts will not run dry, and the seeds you plant in faith will yield a bountiful harvest. Stay steadfast, and watch as I, the Lord, transform your little into much.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, we come before You with gratitude for Your Word and the promises You have given us. We thank You for reminding us that You value the small things and that You are the God of multiplication. Lord, we pray for an increase in faith, that we may not despise the days of small beginnings. Help us to see the potential in the little we have and to trust You to bring about a great harvest.
Father, we pray for Your blessing upon the small efforts and resources we offer. Just as You multiplied the loaves and fishes, we ask that You multiply our offerings and endeavors. Give us the wisdom to use what we have wisely and the patience to wait for Your perfect timing. We declare that our small beginnings will lead to great outcomes, and we will see Your hand at work in our lives.
Lord, we thank You for the prophetic word that encourages us to remain faithful. We receive Your promise that You will bring about a great increase in our lives. Let Your favor rest upon us, and may we see the manifestation of Your greatness in everything we do. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
Your future is great.
