PRINCIPLES OF DIVINE
BLESSING
Memorise: Wherefore the Lord
God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father,
should walk before me forever: but Now the Lord saith, Be it far from me; for
them that honour me I will honour and they that despise me shall be lightly
esteemed. 1st Samuel 2:30
Read: Deuteronomy 28:1-6, (KJV)
1 And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken
diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy
God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day,
that the Lord thy
God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:
2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake
thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy
God.
3 Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou
be in the field.
4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of
thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the
flocks of thy sheep.
5 Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store.
6 Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed
shalt thou be when thou goest out.
Bible in one year: Jeremiah
5:14-7:29, Psalms 44:17-26
MESSAGE
If
you want to command the blessings of God, you must be willing to pay the price.
If you want the kind of blessing that does not have any form of sorrow, you
must be willing to obey the instructions of God. If you want the kind of
blessing that is no respecter of seasons, you must be willing to live a holy
life. This means it is very possible for you to enjoy God’s blessing all the
days of your life; however, there are principles that command this blessing.
When you follow and honour God, you have no fear of tomorrow. There are many
people who are worried about what their tomorrow looks like. They don’t know
what will happen next. For those who are living holy, they know their tomorrow
will be alright as promised by God in His Word, they know they will prosper.
This is automatic for them because the Word of God says: Open Heavens 30 August
2016:- Principles of Divine Blessing
“If ye be willing and obedient,
ye shall eat the good of the land”
Isaiah 1:19
If
you are living a holy life, God will supply all your needs. There are many
people who are blessed but they have no peace. For those who walk in the path
of God, He blesses them and adds peace to their blessing.
“say ye to the righteous, that it
shall be well with him for they shall eat the fruit of their doings”
Isaiah 3:10
If
you want a glorious promotion, you must live a holy life. The Almighty God is
no respecter of persons. He will never bend His standards. He is very strict
and perfect. It is the blessing of God that takes an individual to the top. The
moment you choose to live by His standards, God will lift you up on high. If
you do not live holy, you will always see yourself falling down. Those who are
down always suffer but when you are on top, the Lord will bless you greatly.
This is why you have to make up your mind to pay the price of consecration. The
knowledge of God produces material and financial blessings. The moment you
honour God with your life, you will have access to the good things of life. You
will attract blessings from all parts of the world and He will give you the
wisdom to keep the blessings. Obedience brings blessings; if you are obedient
you will have victory in every aspect of life. You will have access to the
fullness of God’s provision. Only those who walk in the principles of God can
command the blessing of God. He fed the Israelites for 40 years in the
wilderness with them working for one day. The blessings of the Almighty God are
inexhaustible. When you distance yourself from the principle of tithing, the
blessings of God will always be distant from you. There is no blessing for the
wicked unless the wicked repents and comes to Jesus. Fools are those who know
the consequences of something and still go into it. They know that the wages of
sin is death and still continue in sin. Divine blessings come to those who keep
the commandments of God. They enjoy good success and prosperity. The moment you
begin to walk in the principles of God, everything you touch becomes blessed.
It is obedience to the Word of God that attracts blessings into one’s
life. 30 August 2016 open heavens
Key point:
It pays to follow God.
