Understanding Your Spiritual Identity as a Blessed Manનમૂનો

THE DUAL SIDE OF THE BLESSING

Today, I want to show you that there are two sides to the blessing. The first side of the blessing is that God puts something on you, and the second is that you express it in life. For emphasis, I will repeat it here: If you become blessed by God, success is no more your prayer, but how well you succeed is your responsibility. There is a side of it that you must do. God may put the same blessing on all of us, but He does not reward us equally because we do not do the same things with life.

A natural man can attain riches by his effort, but the blessed man will have riches without stress. According to Proverbs 10:22, the blessing is a creative force and a power. So, every wise Christian should understand that God has called us to become blessed before we start out labouring.

There are two kinds of riches in the world:

a) Blessed riches; and

b) Unblessed riches.

If you are rich, you have the money to buy what you want, but if you are blessed, you do not have to buy it to have it. The blessing does not mean you are not going to work but it simply means your work is going to produce the right result. One of the outstanding marks of a blessed man is that the hands of God team up with the work of his hands in life: Whatsoever he does shall prosper (Psa. 1:3). This covenant is more than any amount of money in the world.

Prayer: Father, thank You for showing me the other side of the blessing. I receive grace to do my part in manifesting the blessing in Jesus’ name.
