The Blessed Life

 Psalm 128: 1-6

The text passage above paints a short but insightful picture of what a blessed life is.

This is what the blessing of those who fear the Lord should be.

God wants us fulfilled, and enjoying the blessed life He has prepared and given to us.

The life God planned and has for you is a good life, a great life, a blessed life.

The things that have gone wrong in our lives is often the work of the enemy not God.

You were not created for curses but for blessings.

Genesis 1:26,28

You are not created for defeat but for blessing, and victory.

1 John 5:4

God is intelligent and wise.

We see evidence of this in nature.

Nature is God's handi work.

The wisdom, intelligence, and creativity of God is seen in nature.

Job 12:7-10

God's glory is seen in nature.

Nature reveals careful planning.

Psalm 95:4-5

God has a well planned life in place for you.

God, in His wisdom has allowed others to go ahead of us, they've paid a price for God's blessing to come upon us.

Hebrews 12:1

Those of us in God's family are blessed through Abraham.

Genesis 22:16-18

Everything Abraham went through was part of the price being paid for you to live a blessed life.

It was God's wisdom at work.

Abraham's faith, patience, worship, praise, sacrifice, and obedience were working to qualify him and all those in Christ Jesus for the blessing.

Galatians 3:9

You can live a blessed life.

Everything you do to serve and please God today is not only securing blessings for you but for your generations unborn, just  like Abraham who tithed and it benefitted a generational line in his loins- the Levites.

Hebrews 7:9,10

You can, and you should live a blessed life because the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross connects us to the blessing of Abraham.

Galatians 3:13,14

In Christ Jesus, there is a blessing trying to get to you.

This blessing eradicates sorrow.

Proverbs 10:22

Navigating A New Year

 Isaiah  42:16 Our text passage above shows us God is the one who shows us the path to take and leads us in new directions. Your path matters to God. The way you you choose to take is important to God. Your steps are seen by God and ordered by God. Psalm 37:23 The year ahead of you matters to God too. Luke 13:8-9 Each year God has given you the grace to witness, experience, and journey through is another opportunity to be fruitful for God. God wants you to make the most of the year ahead of you to His glory. Human beings do not always know the way and path to go, we can be limited in wisdom. History shows we do not always make the best choices. The year ahead of us will require knowing the way to go, having the wisdom to make the best decisions and choices. Deuteronomy 30:19 To successfully navigate the year we need to stay in God.. To navigate is to find your way through, it is following the right path to a specific destination. Car drivers either buy a GPS/Navigation device system or

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18

The Importance Of The Anointing

Acts 10:38 The anointing is the presence of the Holy Spirit with a person. The anointing speaks, the anointing directs, and the anointing teaches people what they need to know and do. 1 John 2:27 You need the anointing. You can grow in the anointing. It is also possible to depart from the anointing. The anointing won't depart from you but you can depart from the anointing. You should remain in Him. It is worth it investing time to understand the your anointing, growing in your anointing and obeying the anointing. As you get to know a person better by spending time with them, so it is with the anointing in your life. With the anointing, you can't go wrong. The anointing strategically positions you in God's kingdom and in life. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit. Colossians 2:9 Jesus had the anointing when He was here on earth. Jesus is our example of what our life can be when we have the anointing. Hebrews 12:2 Jesus knew His purpose. Luke 2:49 Jesus
