Overtaking Blessings…

Posted on by admin

Deuteronomy 28:2 “And all these blessings shall come on you, and overtake you, if you shall hearken unto the voice of The Lord your God.”

Have you ever been driving along a road and suddenly noticed a vehicle has sped right up behind you. In no time it overtakes and is in front of you. What you hadn’t noticed coming up behind is now clearly visible in front of you.

Now, the only way that something can overtake is if it’s travelling on the same road, in the same direction that we are. This verse shows that you and I are travelling on the very same road as God’s blessings whenever we listen to and obey His Word. When we stay on this road so does God’s blessing.

Now, there is an amazing promise from God delivered through this verse. It lets us know that the blessings God has prepared are not just travelling on the same road but they’re going to catch us and then overtake. This means that God’s blessings will move from being in a place that’s hard to see into a place where it will be impossible to miss them. They’ll move from the unseen into our future right in front of us.

God’s blessings are right on our tails. They’re waiting for the opportunity to overtake and get in front of us so we can see them. Why not allow them to by listening to and obeying God’s Word in every part of life. Before long we’ll have the Blessings that God promised clearly in our gaze, ready to be pursued for a happy future!

Wisdom…

Proverbs 8:34 “Blessed the man, blessed the woman, who listens to wisdom, awake and ready for me each morning, alert and responsive as I start my day’s work”

Some days we wake up feeling a little grumpy and it often effects our whole day. Other times we wake with joy and a heart full of hope. This often results in a day blessed from beginning to end. We soon discover that how our day starts often influences the direction it will take.

Our verse reassures us that we have the right to days filled with blessing and happiness. Whether we are male or female it is our right as born again believers. It also shows us that there is a specific way to achieve this in our lives.

Here is a key to experiencing this blessing. First thing every day we should wake up and find wisdom. As we continue through our day we must be alert and responsive to her voice.

So, how do we discover this wisdom? We open our Bible, the book of wisdom, and allow it to guide every part of our day. Every piece of wisdom we will ever need is contained in its pages.

This week why not start each day with wisdom. Before doing anything else seek some from the Bible. It will change your day. It will set you up for a blessed and happy time. It will allow God’s Wisdom to navigate your day rather than anything else. So, get ready for a happy and blessed week together!
