BE POSITIONED FOR THE BLESSING

”Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in Heavenly places in Christ Jesus.” Ephesians 1:3 KJV

When you take a closer look at this scripture, you will notice that you are already blessed with not ‘some,’ but ALL spiritual blessings. However, it is your responsibility to bring your Heavenly blessings into the physical realm because that is where it is relevant to you. There is no point being sick, broke, feeling frustrated and depressed when your portion is divine health, financial abundance and prosperity of the spirit, soul and body.

In order to enjoy these blessings, the first step is to find out what the Word of God has to say about the situation you are faced with. Are you in need of the fruit of the womb? Are you facing financial challenge? Look through the scriptures and discover what the Bible has to say. The problem is that often, believers are too lazy to find out what God has to say concerning them. Every Word of God is pregnant with the power of God. So, all you need is a Word from God concerning that situation.

After finding the scriptures, do not just fold your hands and expect it to fall on you like a bag of cherries. You must arm yourself with the promise of God and go to war with it. It is a fight of faith. You must consistently impose what God has said over your situation and receive by faith what grace has made available to you. You need to meditate on that word which you have received; let it go beyond the letter to a revelation.

Speak the Word to yourself over and over again. Personalize it!  Study that promise and find out if there are conditions to be fulfilled. When you discover the inherent conditions in the promise, go ahead and work on them. Do not ignore the conditions or say it doesn’t matter. Make it a duty to work on it and pretty soon, you will see a manifestation.
