A Blessed People!

Do you realize we are A Blessed People?


  • No matter what we see on television or read in the paper, we are  Blessed People!
  • No matter what the stereotypes and statistics say, we are
  • Blessed People!
  • Even when people turn their backs on us, we are Blessed People!
  • In spite of the trials and tribulations we face in life, we are 
  • Blessed People!
  • In spite of all the negative rumors you heard against you, we are 
  • Blessed People!
  • Even when your current situation does not compliment the promise God made you, we are Blessed People!
  • When it seems as if you have more going against you than for you, we are Blessed People!
  • When people laugh in your face and mock your belief in God, we are Blessed People!
  • When no one believes in your vision, we are Blessed People!
  • When your flesh desires to quit but your spirit will not give up, we are Blessed People!
  • When people walk away during the lowest points of your life, we are Blessed People!

Why are we a blessed people?  Why are we a blessed people?  We are blessed not because of the materialistic possessions we have.  Not because of temporary things we own.  We are blessed because through all that we have been through God is still on our side.  This is the reason we are Blessed People! After all we endured in life, God stayed when no one else did.  He comforted us when no one else could be found.  Beloved, we are blessed like that!
Scripture Reading for Today: 1 Peter 2:9.

What God Can Do in Five Seconds

God can do more in five seconds than we can do in five hours or months or years. This is one reason the habit of prayer is wise. Sometimes we do not get the five second breakthrough because we do not ask. To be sure, God ordains to do many good things through hours or months or years of labor. Prayer is not meant to replace toil. For example, God wills that a chapter be read, or a meal prepared, or a friend visited in the space of hours not seconds. He wills that a house be built in months not hours. He wills that a child be reared in years not months. But there are breakthroughs which could come in seconds. They often take us hours or days or months if they come at all. I have in mind especially the breakthroughs of insight that open a world of life changing truth and practical wisdom. All of Us Have Blind Spots and Blind Moments Many obstacles to joy and fruitfulness are owing to the fact that we cannot see reality the way it is. We cannot see the meaning of a biblical...

The Power of Spiritual Agreement or Oneness

Spiritual agreement is powerful because it combines the prayer power of individuals into a new spiritual entity that is "greater than the sum of the parts". This is first encountered (in a negative way) at the building of the Tower of Babel: Genesis 11:6 And Jehovah said, Behold! The people is one and they all have one language. And this they begin to do. And now nothing which they have imagined to do will be restrained from them. The "group mind" focuses the energy of the individuals onto a purpose, just like sunlight is focused by a magnifying glass and can burn paper or wood. These highly focused prayers and spiritual intents can bring about major spiritual transformations. Thus Jesus wants His Church to be united and powerful. Unity Is A Sign Of Maturity And Leads To Great Spiritual Power Ephesians 4:3-13 endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.  ….(11)  And truly He gave some to be apostles, and some to be prophets, and some to ...

When You Pray

My brother, my sister, when you pray do you believe God is able to do what it is you stand in need of?  Do you believe the Lord can handle whatever you bring to Him?  Do you believe He can do anything but fail?  Are your prayers spent telling God about your problems or praising Him for His power?  Do you find yourself crying about matters that the Lord said He would take care of in due time?  Do you often doubt God hears your prayers?  Do you wonder if God has forgotten about you?  Do you sometimes feel as if everything around you is chaotic?  Sometimes, do you think one more bad report will push you over the edge? Beloved, if you answered “yes” to any of these questions, this morning’s devotional is for you.  I have been sent to remind you of two important things: When You Pray  always acknowledge that you are talking to God ( Genesis 18:14 ); and When You Pray  always close in the name of Jesus ( Acts 4:12 ).
