Jesus. He is going to change your life today. That is if you change your prayer. You need the blessing, but you need the blesser more. When you get the blesser in your life blessings follow you.
In the book of Mathew 6:31-33 Jesus says that God already knows that you need food. The same money for a house and clothe you are praying for God already knows you need it, however, he is waiting for your heart to desire something more. So that you won’t be coming to God every on and off asking the same thing, God wants you to have the source of those things in you so that you can be self-generating your solutions.
He wants you to seek his Kingdom where the production happens and be working in the factory where your solutions are made. Then you will lack nothing. “Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.” says Jesus in Mathew 6:31-33. Feel the weight of Jesus words and you will stop feeling the weight of life struggles.
David talks of God in psalms saying, “ The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside the still waters.”Psalms 23:1-2. After walking with God, David, the King of Israel realized that God took providing for him very seriously that He would not let him lack.
What was it that David did that made God so keen on providing for him. This is the same secret Jesus is teaching us in the book of Mathew. That we should stop looking and being enticed with the provision more than the provider. We should go looking for the provider and his Kingdom first and all other things should follow. The blesser is the carrier of the blessings.
When Jesus brings the Kingdom to you, everything changes. You might be praying for silver but what you actually need are legs that can walk. If you can afford the Kingdom of God, God will not let you fail to afford anything cheaper. Go for the Kingdom, find the blesser. You need a real relationship with the King.
Jesus says, “Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” John 12:32.
God promises amazing things in the book of psalms,“Because he loves me,” says the LORD, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honour him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation.” psalms 91:14-15How then do we seek the Kingdom of God?Love? Love is the answer. Love the owner more than his things, and adore the blesser more than the blessings you want from him. The bible says, “If ye love me keep my commandments,” John 14:15Jesus goes further to say, “He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him and will manifest myself to him.” John 14:21He adds to say, “… If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. ” John 14:23 … and that my friend is how the Kingdom we seek finds us when seek it.
God as the blesser does not just want us to ask for blessings and forget him. He needs people who know what to do with the blessing. People who can love. If you can love God, then you are ready to love others, you are ready for other blessings when God, the greatest blessing of all makes an abode in you. God in you is the greatest blessing you can ever have, it can never be quantified or measured in worth.
Let the Kingdom be in you and the King will dwell there and supply your needs. You have a right to all your Kingdom’s privileges when you become a citizen and more so, a citizen who hosts the King, a citizen whom the King loves.
Jesus says, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it.” John 14:12-14
