THE SEED
”All these blessings will come on you and accompany you if you obey the Lord your God:“ Deuteronomy 28:2 NIV
God uses diverse ways to bless His children, one of such ways is through obedience. Obedience to God opens the door to His blessings. According to His unfailing word, God is ready to give us the blessings that will accompany us in our journey through life and even beyond. All we need to do is to obey Him, to do according to His lead and not ours. If you lack the heart that takes to God’s instruction then you plan to be in lack of God’s blessings in life. In our obedience to God’s instructions and lead, we stand to enjoy His numerous blessings upon all that is identified with us in life as detailed in the book of Deuteronomy 28. You will be blessed where you live, your journey to and fro, your children, your spouse, your business and your health…will be blessed because of your obedience to God. The blessing will not allow your enemy to have power over you and it will put your fear in their mind not to do you evil. This blessing is divine and not from this world. Deuteronomy 28:12 ” The Lord will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none.“ These and more we have been called to enjoy in Christ. Beloved, the truth is we gain all in obedience and lose all in disobedience.
BIBLE READINGS: Deuteronomy 28:1 – 13
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, help me with the Holy Spirit to walk in obedience. Amen
