MADE FOR THE BLESSING

I will make them and the places surrounding my hill a blessing. I will send down showers in season; there will be showers of blessing. (Ezekiel 34:26)

The goodness of God knows no bound. It is in the nature of God to bless His people at all times. However, why many do not experience the manifestations of these blessings as they ought to, is due to lack of spiritual growth. God is not a waster of resources.

From our scriptural text we discovered that the first thing God takes into consideration before the release of His showers of blessing is the promise of building the people. He said; "I will make them...." The making process always precedes the blessing season. What you are asking God for now in prayer, have you paused for a moment to ask yourself if you are matured enough for it? Can you handle that financial breakthrough? Can you handle that marriage? We are meant to focus first on our spiritual, emotional and mental growth before demanding access into certain level of blessings.

The bible reveals this truth to us in Acts 20:32 "now I commit you to God and to the Word of His Grace, which CAN BUILD YOU UP, AND GIVE YOU an inheritance among all those who are sanctified."

Until the word build you up, it cannot give you access to an inheritance. As it is in the physical, so it is as well in the spiritual realm. You cannot give a car key to a 4 year old to drive no matter how you love the child. Like my son will always say,"Dad, let me drive" and I will look at him and smile, because I know he is not matured enough to handle what he is requesting. Likewise, God often smiled at you, because He knows you do not understand the magnitude of what you are demanding. Give yourself first to the word, and grow in order to access your inheritance.

Galatians 4:1-2  What I am saying is that as long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole estate. He is subject to guardians and trustees until the time set by his father.

Apostle Paul made us understand that as long as you're a child, you're no different from a slave. Who is a child? A child is someone not matured in reasoning, in decision making. You can be of age and still acts as a child. Age is not a yardstick for maturity. What gives you access into the blessings you are made for, is your growth in the word of God.

1 Peter 2:2 Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation.

Have you seen when a newborn baby is hungry? The baby will cry and cry until the mother gives her food. When you see a baby that does not cry for food such a child will look retarded, malnourished.

In other words, when a believer does not crave for spiritual milk, that is the word of God, he/she becomes retarded. Though is a believer but lacks necessary essential nutrients for his growth. The essence for the crave is for nourishment, growth.

Prayer:
1. Oh Lord, build me up with your word today.
2. I walk in the fullness of God's blessing, I can never be limited and I can't be stopped in Jesus name.
3. The blessings of God is at work in my life making me rich and prosperous in everything I lay my hands on in Jesus name amen.
GOD BLESS YOU.

THE POWER OF FASTING AND PRAYER 2 DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE!

 "But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting". You may not know what the future holds and that is the more reason why you should hold unto the one who holds the future. God knows what lies ahead of us this year and as we connect with him through prayer and fasting he empowers us to overcome, prevail and win over every battle, challenges and attacks of the enemy that may come our way. From the Scripture above tells us about the response of Jesus to his disciples when they were faced with an impossible situation that has to do with a man whose son was sick. The disciples tried all they could but their efforts to heal the young man was not fruitful. When Jesus showed up, the seemingly impossible situation became possible. Jesus was able to heal the man's son. So the disciples were amazed and they asked Jesus why they couldn't do it.  I declare: May Jesus shows up in your marriage, shows up in your finances, family in the name of Jesus. Where your strength...

GODS' PROMISES

The Lord was gracious to Sarah as he had said, and the Lord did for Sarah what he had promised. Sarah became pregnant and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the very time God had promised him. (Genesis 21:1-2) Understand that our God is a Covenant Keeping God. Whatever God says He will do, that, He will surely do. He has the capacity and capability to do it. Jesus was speaking to His disciples and said; “And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible”. (Mark 10:27). Whatever promise God has for you in His word, He is able to bring it to pass. But the things that bring about the delays are; unbelief, doubt, fear, and sin (Mark 11:23). Make sure you deal with these four things and stop them before they stop you from possessing your possession. Do you also desire the fruit of the womb like  Sarah? The word says…. “None shall be barren” (Deuteronomy 7:14). Therefore, in the name of Jesus, I decree God’s visitat...

THE BLESSING OF FRUITHFULNESS.

Then God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it. Reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that scurry along the ground." Genesis 1:28 NLT The first blessing that was released on man is the blessing of fruitfulness. What does it mean to be fruitful. Fruitfulness is the empowerment to bear fruits. Another word for fruitfulness is to be productive; to generate results; to prosper.  God planted man on earth as a seed, expected man to bear fruits. When a man is barren, his prayer can be hindered. Why? Because man was designed to bear fruits in as much you're not bearing fruit your prayer can be hindered.  You didn't choose me. I chose you. I appointed you to go and produce fruit that will last, so that my Father will give you whatever you ask for, using my name. ( John 15:16).  In other words, the reason why you don't received whatever you ask for is because of your unfruitfulness. Because you were cho...
