Positive Quote for the Week: Don’t Block your Blessing
“Don’t block your own blessing because of disobedience, God wants to bless you and bless you abundantly!”
The Bible is filled with the Lord’s promises, however a lot of times we tend to block them without even realizing it. God wants to give His children life in abundance; He is our Provider, Genesis 22:14. The thing is we can hinder or delay His promises for our lives by disobeying His Word.
Some of the ways that we can prevent our blessings are: not watching the things that we say, harboring unforgiveness, or clinging onto your pride, just to name a few. Regardless of what the reason is that you are not prospering in life, you want to evaluate your situation so that you can get to the bottom of it and find out why.
What we do know is that God wants for us to have a plentiful life where we have every bit of what we need, John 10:10. So, if you find yourself consistently struggling and you cannot catch a break, you have to ask yourself why? Why am I not receiving the Blessings that the Lord is promising throughout His Word? Once you can take an honest look at your life, you will have an idea of what it is that could be blocking your Blessings so that you can change it.
If you are a true believer of the Lord Jesus Christ and are walking in right standing with Him meaning that you are adhering to His Biblical Law, then you are a candidate for His Blessings and Promises. One of the most important passages of Scripture that you want to meditate on is James 1:22 “But be doers of the word, not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.”
We have to make an intentional effort to get into God’s Word: study it, digest it, and apply it to our daily lives. How can we follow the Lord’s Biblical law if we have no idea what it is? It is our responsibility to rightly divide God’s truth, 2 Timothy 2:15.
Scriptures pertaining to God’s blessings
Philippians 4:19 “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
3 John 1:2 “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.”
John 1:16 “And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace.”
Proverbs 16:7 “When a man’s ways please the Lord, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.”
James 1:17 “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.”
