OVERTAKING BLESSING

OVERTAKING BLESSING

God’s blessing on the lives of His children is essential to their wellbeing. This is dear to God’s heart that the first thing God did in relation to humanity was to bless it.” Then God blessed them, and God said to them, Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it, have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”(Gen. 1:28)

God sustains His work by blessing. Your life is therefore under the operation of God’s blessing and cursing (Deut.11:20). God’s will for you is that you should be blessed and enjoy overflowing and overtaking blessings as you walk in obedience to His commandments. “Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the LORD your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. And all these blessing shall come upon you and overtake you because you obey the voice of the LORD your God.” (Deut.28:1-2)

What does the word Blessing mean;

(1) A divine gift which could be a natural gift or a spiritual gift that God released or endowed you with from His treasured storehouse in heaven to cause your work to succeed.(Deut.28:12)

(2) God’s blessing means His abiding presence with you. The most important asset a child of God needs in life is “Immanuel.” When God is with you, you will prosper in the work of your hand, be victorious always, live long to fulfill divine destiny. God told Isaac, “Dwell in this land, and I will be with you and bless you.” (Gen.26:3a). The rest of the story of Isaac in Gerar was awesome regardless of the famine in the land.

(3) God giving you strength, power and help to accomplish your mission or task on earth, ”that He would grant you according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man

(Eph.3:16).

(4) God working in and through you to produce His good pleasure (Phil.2:13)

The whole of Jesus Christ on earth is that He is God sent to bless you. The blessing of God could be conditional or unconditional; reversible or irreversible. You have the choice to make to live under God’s blessing or cursing based on your obedience or disobedience.

How do you Receive God’s Blessing?

(a) You must always look to Jesus for His blessing on your life, Ministry, work, and your family (Heb.12:2).

(b) You must believe in, love and obey Him (Jesus Christ)

(Matt 5:3-11, Matt 24:45-46).”Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it” (Rev.1:3).

(c) You must remove everything from your life that would hinder the blessing. “That you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts.” (Eph 4:22)

God’s blessing as promised by God if His commandments are obeyed is sure to come upon and overtake you.

However, God’s blessing may not be equated with personal material gain or

the absence of suffering in our lives which promotes His ultimate blessing.
