Every Spiritual Blessing

 Happy Sunday everyone,

Do you know that God did not bless us? Let me make the statement better, do you know that God doesn’t bless us? The question is how? Let me tell you why.

First of all, I explained in a blog I wrote that God did not give us the authority directly, but because those who are in Christ benefit a hundred percent because it is Christ God gave that blessing. Now, God gave Christ these blessings on behalf of man, since Christ represented us. But my emphasis is on the level of blessings available to us in order to answer the question in the first paragraph.

Now, if a person should bless you, it implies the giver still has more left right? This is where I am going, Christ became one with God and we, in turn, would be one with Christ the moment we accept Jesus as Lord. The truth is that God did not bless us, but in order to understand in a language, we would say God blessed us. If I want to really explain what God did, it would be like, we walked right into the blessing.

This blessing doesn’t mean blessings alone, but favour, abundance and so on, beyond your imagination. To make you understand again, God emptied Himself upon us. To a lay, layman this would mean God emptied His bank account upon us with nothing left. To a man it is like blessing without thinking. This is the extent of the great love God has towards man. So when we say we want God to bless us, this doesn’t make sense because He has nothing else to give us again, why? This is because there nothing we could ever think of even to our greatest, wildest imagination that He hasn’t provided for us, why again? It is because He gave us Himself!

When the Bible says in Ephesians 1:3 which says, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ” When God has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places, what do you think this meant? It means, God gave us everything and left nothing out. Now, every spiritual blessing comes out of God, so why possess the fish than possessing the source of the fish, so God gave Himself to us because He is the source of every spiritual blessing. This is very important for us to understand, but many of us still prefer the cash, the possession, which can finish one day, why not take possession of the source of the spiritual blessings which we activate through Jesus. This is just a tip of how God loves us.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.

                    

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
