BLESSED IN EVERY WAY
What are your deepest thoughts regarding the love of God? Does he love you? I mean for real? The more I study the word, the more I see God's heart towards us. He passionately loves us and longs to bless us with the wealth of who he is! King David was convinced of God’s heart to bless him – consider what he wrote.
Psalms 5:12 For surely, O Lord, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield.
Genesis 24:1 Abraham was now old and well advanced in years, and the Lord had blessed him in every way.
2 Corinthians 9:10-11 Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.
When we say God loves us, what do we mean? Is his type of love some weird love that wants us to obey but doesn't want to do good things for us? Of course, the greatest blessing God can give us is not money or material things! Our greatest blessing is God himself! We must also note though, that according to the Word, God longs to bless us in every way; spiritually, physically, financially, socially and in every other way! God's blessing is accessed through faith alone! The starting point of relationship with God is, by faith, accepting his incredible love as displayed in the shed blood of Jesus Christ at the cross! Listen to what Jesus said:
Matthew 7:11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!
We must believe! There is no way to access the incredible goodness of God unless we believe! Believing is the connection between heaven and earth! Please consider the way God thinks about you. His love for you is true, genuine, secure and beyond what your mind can fully conceive! Look at the word of God and consider the amazing love of God, because, he wants you to be....
