As we continue to enjoy the love of Christ in this month of Grace and our year of Divine Satisfaction, we pray His grace will be sufficient for all.
Did You know You are Blessed Wherever You Are?
Deuteronomy 28:3 “Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the country”
You may have heard of people who think that to have better “luck” they have to move to a new home, work for a certain company or even migrate to another country.
The truth is that it is not the place that gets you the blessings, but whether God’s blessing is on you. And for you, child of God, you are already blessed with all spiritual blessings in Christ Jesus. (Ephesians 1:3) He has paid for your blessings with His blood. So the blessing is not on the land but on the person!
It was in the city of Jerusalem that Jesus was whipped, cursed and spat on. And it was outside the city on Calvary’s hill that He was pierced and crucified. That is why you are blessed in the city as well as outside in the country! In fact, you are blessed regardless of your location.
Perhaps you work in a non-Christian company and your boss doesn’t quite like you. In fact, they sometime mistreat you. But God can still bless you, in spite of your boss. You get blessed because you believe God for it. It has nothing to do with your boss or the company.
Why then don’t you seem to see the blessings?
My friend, if you don’t see the blessings, check what you have been believing and saying. Some people complain and blame everyone and everything around them – their parents, race, gender, environment and government – for their lack of blessings. Beloved, I want you to believe and confess that you are blessed because of Jesus’ finished work on the cross, not because you are of a certain race or work in a certain place.
It does not matter where you work or live, what colour your skin. If God blesses you, you are blessed! And it is all because of Jesus. So, say to yourself, “I am blessed wherever I am – blessed in the city, blessed in the country!”
