LIVING THE BLESSED LIFE: THE BLESSING OF GOD IS WHOLESOME – AND IT’S LIFE GIVING!
The BLESSING of God is the ENABLING and ENDOWED grace bestowed upon the BELIEVERS’ in Christ, and it’s firstly SPIRITUAL before it takes a PHYSICAL hold effect as a result of its operations, administrations and manifestations. It thus means that THE BLESSING of God is Not Material Stuff As – Car, Property, Money and such likes as some people do think or suggest. Physical stuff rots, decays and expires but God’s BLESSEDNESS does not rot, decays and expires – and it’s not limited by any human, demonic or natural factors. It’s a treasured enabler in the heavenly for earthly affairs – Ephesians 1:3; Matthew 6:19-21
Hence, having material gains as CAR, PROPERTY, MONEY and MORE may be results of God’s BLESSINGS but not THE BLESSING of God. Besides, there are lots of people that have obtained all these mentioned material stuff above through illicit, wicked, oppressive and devilish ways. Could that be God? NO, NEVER, NOT AT ALL. Hence there are not the BLESSING of God. So you can’t measure God’s BLESSEDNESS from the physical possessions, because a man’s life in BLESSEDNESS does not consist or measured simply on the abundance of physical things you think you possess. Luke 12:15.
Also, to ‘BEING BLESSED OF GOD’ simply Means – to being Empowered To – Succeed, Achieve, Become, Innovate, Create, Get and such likes. For it’s THE BLESSING of God that makes one enriched in the kingdom and thus sustains one enrichment; and it’s not just about having material acquisition as money, property, car and more as known that makes one rich. For money and other material gains has wings, they COMES and GOES but THE BLESSING OF GOD that enriches us, ABIDES and ABOUNDS forever – Proverbs 23:5. It thus means, you can be EMPOWERED to succeed again and again no matter what levels of challenges are about you even as Isaac of Abraham experience with God at famine after been at plenty at a time. Genesis 26:1-5, 12-25.
So if you must crave and pursue anything in Life and Godliness, then crave and pursue for God’s given blessing and build your life on God’s given BLESSEDNESS which will eventually enrich you wholly and not just a pursuits on wealth or material acquisitions as many do or think or suggest.
THEREFORE, KNOW FULL WELL THAT:
** THE BLESSING OF GOD is wholesome, complete, fulfilling, peaceful, all embracing and not limited to just things physical only but the total being of man – spirit, soul and body (1 Thessalonians 5:23; Luke 2:52).
** THE BLESSING OF GOD empowers, gives enabling, rights, privileges and creates enrichment and fulfilment (Deuteronomy 8:18).
** And You are BLESSED with THE BLESSING OF GOD as a possession already (Ephesians 1:3/2 Peter 1:2-4), and it can be made tangible today by FAITH – acting on THE WORD accordingly as you BELIEVE.
Henceforth, I say to you, live on God’s gracious BLESSEDNESS and all other things will come together timely. I pray that THE BLESSINGS OF GOD be your vehicle of enrichment in Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.
