Inspiration

“…if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God…all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you.”

The Scripture says that when you honor and obey God, His blessings will overtake you. Other versions say they will overwhelm you and come in abundance. When you chase after God, you don’t have to chase blessings. They will chase and track you down. You never dreamed you could pay off your house or send your child to college, then suddenly a blessing comes—a promotion, an inheritance, a business opportunity. You never dreamed you’d be running your department at work. What happened? You came into a blessing. God took you from the back to the front, from renting to owning, from not having enough to more than enough.

Blessings are not just material things. They’re also influence and prestige. People who didn’t give you credit or value your ideas will see you in a new light. Just keep doing the right thing and being your best. They may discount you now, but the day is coming when you’ll be in a position of honor and influence. It’s going to happen suddenly. You couldn’t make it happen. It’s the hand of God.

“Father, thank You for Your promise that as I honor You and keep You first place, blessings are headed my way, tracking me down and overtaking me. Thank You that You have blessings in abundance. I believe that I will be overwhelmed by Your goodness. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
