Minister Isaac Muriungi
You have been anointed by Christ. You are called to be kings and priests, bearing dominion to acquire lands and things for the glory of God. This anointing reminds you of your importance and your legacy. Walk with your head held high.
The Scripture in Psalm 92:10 (KJV) declares: “But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.” My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries; my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.
Turn to Genesis 27:27-40 (KJV), where Isaac blessed Jacob after the deception. Jacob received the blessing of abundance: grain and wine in plenty, nations serving him, and lordship over his brothers. When Esau returned and pleaded for a blessing, Isaac said the blessing had already been given. Esau wept bitterly, yet Isaac pronounced what remained: “Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above; And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.”
There is a blessing left for you. God is not only a blesser but also a lifter. Before you were formed in the womb, He knew you and predestined you. Consider Gideon in Judges 6:15 (KJV), where the angel addressed him as a mighty man of valour despite his hiding and self-view as the least. Even rejected seeds, like beans thrown aside, can still germinate and bear fruit. There is dynamite inside you to preach the gospel and walk in greatness.
Esau lost his birthright through careless decisions and negotiation, but mistakes can become messages. He asked for any leftover blessing, proving it is not over while life remains. When nothing is left but God, you discover that God is enough. Esau swallowed his anger to ask; anger is one letter from danger.
The key to Esau’s leftover blessing lies in becoming restless: unsettled enough to break free from control and oppression. Multiply your efforts, divide your destructions, and subtract your comfort zones. Faith is a muscle to exercise, not a pill.
A yoke is a wooden frame that harnesses oxen for ploughing, enforcing submission. Being unequally yoked leads to competition and struggle. The devil imposes yokes—addiction, depression, financial instability, generational curses – but Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8, KJV: “He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.”). His yoke is easy and His burden light (Matthew 11:28-30, KJV: “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”).
Become a yoke-breaker like Jabez in 1 Chronicles 4:9-10 (KJV): “And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren: and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with sorrow. And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.” Jabez broke the yoke of poverty and limitation through prayer.
Esau, with one blessing, amassed 400 men and wealth. Jacob, with seven blessings, bowed seven times in humility. Yet Esau ran to embrace his brother without bitterness, declaring he had plenty. Hate is a prolonged form of suicide; forgive to heal and avoid destroying bridges. Bitterness, hate, and revenge are luxuries you cannot afford. Surrender every grudge—there is more than enough waiting: partners, provisions, and purpose.
Become restless today. Blessings await those who break free.
Application: Recognise that no matter past losses, deceptions, or mistakes, a leftover blessing remains if you turn to God. Become restless—unsettled by limitations, yokes, and comfort zones—and exercise faith to break them through prayer, forgiveness, and decisive action. Hate nothing and forgive freely, for bitterness blocks provision. Enlarge your territory like Jabez, walk in your anointing as a king and priest, and pursue the greatness God has predestined for you.
