Five conditions of blessing


Psalms 84:11 

For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless.

Colossians 1:23  

If you continue in your faith, established and firm, not moved from the hope held out in the gospel. This is the gospel that you heard and that has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become a servant.

2 Timothy 2:12-13  

12 if we endure, we will also reign with him. If we disown him, he will also disown us;

13 if we are faithless, he will remain faithful, for he cannot disown himself.

Read Isaiah 58.

Enter the Throne Room

 “Now we can come fearlessly right into God’s presence.”  Ephesians 3:12, TLV

Christ meets you outside the throne room, takes you by the hand, and walks you into the presence of God.  Upon entrance we find grace, not condemnation; mercy, not punishment…

Because we are friends of God’s Son, we have entrance to the throne room.  This gift is not an occasional visit before God but rather a permanent “access by faith into this grace by which we now stand.” (Romans 5:2, NIV)

He Cares

Give all your worries to him, because he cares about you.  I Peter 5:7

Maybe you don’t want to trouble God with your hurts.  After all, he’s got famines and pestilence and wars; he won’t care about my little struggles, you think.

Why don’t you let him decide that?  He cared enough about a wedding to provide the wine.  He cared enough about Peter’s tax payment to give him a coin.  He cared enough about the woman at the well to give her answers….Max Lucado.
