RECEIVING YOUR BLESSINGS BY OBEDIENCE

Service from our Friday meeting 12-23-16


RECEIVING YOUR BLESSINGS BY OBEDIENCE

Jeremiah 17:7   ⁷ Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.

To be able to trust in the Lord you must first know who the Lord is.

Then you must have a personal relationship with him that can only come through the word and obedience.

God blesses us through obedience.

You can be prayed up, built up, lifted up, but if you are not obedient to the word of God you are not going to be blessed.

When you are obedient to Gods word, faith can produce healing, prosperity and peace of mind.

When you take action on God’s word, that is faith. Now God can reward you because you have trusted him.

When life gets to the point that you cannot see any light at the end of the tunnel, trust God. The problem with the church today is we only believe and do not respond to the word that is taught.

Satan will say, don’t trust what you cannot see. This is how most people see life.

You must admit the reality of something that you cannot see based on the word of God.

The unrighteous live by what they see, we the righteous of God thru Christ Jesus live by the inspired word of God; His will.

When you are convinced by the word of God that what he says is the truth, then, Gods power and presence will manifest in your life.

Jesus destroyed the evil and the strategies of the devil at Calvary with his blood and mercy.

Because of His mercy you have been able to enter into the family of God through grace. God’s grace.

Grace will give you the strength to walk by faith.

2 Corinthians 5:7   ⁷ (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)

God will strengthen your inner man then; your inner man will begin to follow Him.

That is what you lean on, not your own understanding.

To have that yoke destroying, burden removing power of God, you must first come to the grace of God, through obedience to God.

Put the word in your mouth, speak it in obedience.

The word says, what does it profit for anyone to profess that they have faith, but have no good works to show for it.

James 1: 22-23   ²² But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

²³ For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

Ephesians 3:20   ²⁰ Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.

You must give the Holy Spirit something to work with.

The same Holy spirit that directed the path of Jesus is the same spirit that dwells in us.

If we want God, the father to bless us we must walk in obedience.
