Biblical Text: ‘ Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many, and in horsemen, because they are very strong, but look not unto the Holy one of Israel.’ [Isaiah 31:1]

Acres of diamond was a true story of a poor farmer who settled in Africa and spent years struggling to raise his crops. His land was rocky and difficult to till. Disenfranchised with his circumstances, the farmer became increasingly fascinated by tales of easy wealth gained by men who searched and discovered diamonds in the countryside. He too, wanted to be rich! He grew tired of the endless labour and impulsively sold his farm to search for diamonds for the rest of his life, he wandered the West African continent searching for diamonds until he became broken spiritually, financially and emotionally. He threw himself into a river and drowned. Meanwhile, the man who had bought his farm discovered that there was diamond on the farm. He was stunned of his new found wealth. It was to become one of the worlds richest diamond mines! The first farmer had unknowingly owned acres of diamonds but was looking for riches somewhere else. Isaac thought there was a greener pasture in Egypt but God prevented him from going. That same year, he sowed and reaped a hundred-fold return; that probably was his own acres of diamond! We must not be quick to run off from our present location in search of greener pastures. Let God lead you, the location you are now might contain your own acres of diamonds.

KNOW IT ∞ Before seeking greener pastures, put it to God to lead you so as not to miss your own acres of diamond.
READ IT ∞ Genesis , 26:1-12, Isaiah 30:2-3
PRAY IT ∞ Father, by your grace, I will not miss my own acres of diamond in Jesus Name.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR ∞ Daniel 10-12
