HOW TO RECEIVE BLESSINGS FROM GOD

Posted by George Soepboer Sr

But they are also the results of our obedience to God and our love for God.

When Adam and Eve were placed in paradise by God they were told by God to obey God if they wanted to be blessed by God and live forever on this world of God. They were not told by God to pray for blessings from God. But they were told by God to obey God. God wanted the willingness from all people on this world to love God, and to live in fellowship with God, and to obey God. If people were willing to obey God then they did not have to ask from blessings from God, for then they would receive everything they needed from God and then they would live forever on this world that is created by God.
( Genesis 2:15-17 ).

Adam and Eve did not wish to obey God and love God but they turned their back on God, therefore they lost all of the blessings from God. Adam and Eve did not lose their blessings from God for lack of faith in God, and they did not lose their blessings from God for lack of prayers to God, Adam and Eve lost their blessings from God and everlasting life on this world of God because they did not obey God because did not love God.
( Genesis 3:1-19 ).

The Jewish people also were promised to be blessed by God when they came into the promised-land that was given to them by God. God promised them blessings if they where willing to obey God and love God, but if they did not obey God and love God then they would lose the blessings from God, and then they would also lose the land that was given to them by God. Most of the Jewish people did not wish to obey God and love God; therefore they lost all of the good things from God. The Jewish people lost the good things from God like Adam and Eve lost the blessings from God. The Jewish people did not lose their blessings from God for lack of prayer to God, or lack of faith in God, but they did lose all the good things from God for lack of obedience to God and lack of love for God.
( Deuteronomy Chapter 28 ).

Adam and Eve removed themselves from the way and will of God because they did not love God. Many of the Jewish people also removed themselves from the will and way of God because they did not love God.

When Jesus Christ the Son of God came to this world from heaven by God then Jesus did not tell people to pray harder to God, or to pray more often to God. Jesus the Son of God told people to obey God and love God. Jesus told them if you obey God and love God then you will be blessed by God. Jesus did not tell people not to pray to God for we must always pray to God. But Jesus made it clear that prayer is not the only answer to receive blessings from God. We must also obey God and love God if we wish to be blessed by God. For if we obey God and love God then all of the things we need are provided by God.
( Matthew 6:25-34 )( Luke 12:22-31 ).

Our needs may never overpower our thinking for they are all known to God before we pray to God. But when we pray to God then our will must be set on doing the will of God. All of the other things that we need are known to God and will also be ours if we seek the will of God and if we truly seek to love God. For if we truly love God then we will also obey God. But our love for God must overpower all the things that we ask from God, for that are the only way that we can truly please God.
( Matthew 6:7-13 ).

Our mind must always be in the will of God, and our heart must always be with God. When our mind is set on doing the will of God, and our heart is with God then we are loved by God, and only then we will have a good relationship with God. When we have a good relationship with God then our whole life is in the will of God, and when our whole life is in the will of God then all of our needs will be supplied by God. Therefore we must never demand things from God, or think that we can claim things from God when we pray to God, but we must seek the will of God when we pray to God, and we must open our heart to God to show our love for God when we pray to God.
( Matthew 26:36-44 ).

All things are within the power of God. Therefore we must not only obey God and pray to God, but we must also truly trust God. For if we do not trust God then we can never please God, for God is a trustworthy God. When a promise is made by God then that promise will be kept by God, therefore we must always trust the promises of God.
( Numbers 11:23 )( Numbers 23:19 )
( Isaiah 50:2-3 )( Isaiah 59:1-2 ).

Our prayers may also not be self-centered prayers to God by only praying for the things we want from God. When we pray we must seek to live in fullness with God. And we must truly open our heart and mind to God when we pray to God. Therefore we must pray for things and ways that will make us live closer to God. That does not mean that we may not pray for all sorts of things to God, for we must pray about everything to God. But we must always seek the friendship and fullness of God when we pray to God and our heart must be wide open to receive that friendship and fullness of God when we pray to God. Therefore we must seek and pray for that fullness by God. When we seek and pray for that friendship and fullness with God then we will receive that friendship and fullness with God from God, for we are loved by God. And then we will also receive all of the things we need to live on this world with God.
( Matthew 7:7-11 )( Mark 11:24 )( Luke 18:1-8 )
( John 15:7 )( Ephesians 6:18-20 )( Colossians 4:2-4 )

We may and must ask things from God for that pleases God. We must not seek our help and strength somewhere else apart from God, for that does not please God. But if we pray only for selfish reasons without seeking the will of God then we will not receive what we ask from God. For a self-centered person is never in the will of God, for then we live for satan, not for God.
( James 4:1-10 )

We must seek the way that Jesus the Son of God lived on this world with God. Jesus the Son of God did not seek His will when He prayer to God, but Jesus the Son of God wanted the way and will of God when He prayer to God, for that is why He came from heaven to this world to please God.
( Matthew 26:36-44 ).

Therefore in good or bad times we must seek the will of God, and we must always trust God, and we must always love God. Also when we do not receive what we ask for by God we must trust and love God, for we do not always know the will and way of God.
( 1 Thessalonians 5:17-18 )

Sometimes bad circumstances in our life can be a way of God for us to do the work of God, and to accomplish things on this world for God. Therefore we must not only in good circumstances love and trust God, but in all circumstances we must trust God and love God.
( 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 )( Genesis 50:15-20 ).

If our heart is in the things of this world then our heart is not right with God, for we can never live for God when our heart is in the things of this world and not with God. We may enjoy the good things on this world for they are a gift from God. However, nothing on this world may take the place of God. And nothing on this world may hinder us from living in fullness on this world with God. And we may not allow any person to hinder us from living in fullness on this world with God. The first place in our life must always belong to God.
( 1 John 2:15-17 ).

Our prayers to God must always be to seek the will and way of God. We can receive things from God when we do not seek the will of God, but if we receive things from God when we do not seek the will of God that is never a blessing from God.
( Numbers 11:4-6---Numbers 11:31-35 ).

It is also wrong for us to think that we can claim by God or demand things from God, for noting belongs to us but it all belongs to God. It is only by the grace of God through Jesus Christ the Son of God that we are accepted by God and that we can be part of the kingdom of God. We have no rights by God for we all have sinned against God.
( Romans 3:23-24 ).

We can only plead for grace by God to be accepted by God through Jesus Christ the Son of God, for Jesus the Son of God paid for all of our sins by God for us to find acceptance by God.
( Ephesians 2:4-9 ).

Whatever we receive from God when we pray to God is by the grace of God. Job lived for God and with God, and Job pleased God by the way he lived for God.
( Job 1:8 )( Job 2:3 ).

However, even Job a blameless man did not have the rights to claim or demand anything from God.
( Job Chapter 38, Chapter 39, Chapter 40,
Chapter 41, Chapter 42:1-16 )

We may only humbly ask things from God when we pray to God. If we pray in any other way then we sin against God. We may pray for anything by God but we must seek to live on this world for God. Therefore in our pray we must always seek the will and way of God.
( John 15:1-8 )( Mark 4:20 )

If we ask things from God and we do not wish to live for God with the gifts we received from God then we will not only lose the gifts we received from God, but then we will also lose our life with God.
( Luke 13:6-9 )

Our whole life must be wrapped up in God, for if we live a life that is not wholly true to God then we do not please God. We can never please God if we live partial for this world and we live partial for God. For we cannot live for satan and live for God.
( Revelation 3:15-16 )

But if we seek to live in fullness on this world with God and we receive that gift from God then we will receive the greatest blessing of all from God, for then we live in fellowship with God. But that gift we will only receive from God if our whole heart is open to God to receive that gift from God. If we live in fullness on this world with God then we are complete in God, for the fullness of life is in God. Then all of the other things will also fall into place for they are all controlled by God. Adam and Eve made us a slave to satan and sin when they followed satan and turned their back on God. But Jesus Christ the Son of God paid for all of them sins for us by God. Therefore we can again live on this world in friendship and fullness with God like Adam and Eve lived before they turned their back on God. However, we will only receive that gift of friendship and fullness on this world with God from God when we are willing to open our whole heart to God and surrender our whole life to God.
( Romans 5:12-21 )( Colossians 2:8-10 ).

We must always pray for everything by God, for by our prayers to God we acknowledge that we depend on God and that we cannot do without God. But it is not through our many prayers to God and our long prayers to God that we will receive blessings from God. For the needs we have and the things we like to have from God are known by God before we ask things from God.
Therefore, in our prayers we must always honor God.
( Matthew 6:7-13 )

If we truly live in fellowship with God then we will receive the things we need from God before we ask things from God.
( Isaiah 65:24 )

Our prayers must first of all be thanksgiving to God for all of the blessings that we always receive from God. Therefore before we lay our needs before God we must give thanks to God. And we must acknowledge to God that we are always in need of God, and that we do not wish to do without God, for we cannot do without God. No one can do without God, for nothing does exist without God, and nothing can exist without God. Even the people who do not seek the help of God and do not pray to God receive blessings from God, for they also need God.
( Matthew 5:43-45 ).

In all of our daily needs we must look for by God. And all of our needs will be provide by God. We will not only receive our daily needs from God but the desires of our heart will be given by God to the people who love God and live for God.
( Psalms 37:4 ).

But if we wish to receive them blessings from God then we must also seek to please God. When we truly please God then we will show our love for God. When we truly love God then we will
Give up everything on this world that hinders us from living in fullness with God, and we will also give up everyone that stands between us and God. For if we want God to be good to us then we must also be good to God.
( Matthew 13:44-46 ).

If we wish to live in friendship and fullness on this world with God then we must love God. Our love for people may never over power our love for God. If we are not willing to let go of the people that hinder us from living in friendship and fullness on this world with God then we will never be a friend of God and live in fullness with God. We also must be willing to give up our own life for the love we have for God, If we are not willing to lay down our life on this world for God then we do not love God, and then we do not live for God.
(Matthew 10:37-39 ).

We also must be willing to give up everything we have on this world for God if we wish to be a friend of God and live in fellowship with God. We may enjoy all the good things of this world. However, we cannot live for the things of this world and live for God, for then we do not truly love God.
( Matthew 6:24 )( Matthew 19:16-22)( 1 John 2:15-17 ).

We must be willing to place our whole life in the hands of God if we wish to live in fellowship and fullness on this world with God, if we are not willing to place our life in the will of God then we will never be a friend of God and live in fullness on this world with God, and then we also will never be part of the glory in heaven by God.
( John 12:25 )

We may enjoy all of the good things on this world with God, but we may not place our heart in the things of this world for our heart must be for God. We also may not allow people to control our heart for we must give our heart to God. If we do not humbly open our whole heart to God then we will never live in fullness with God. We cannot share our heart with worldly gods and with the Lord God. For when the things of this world control our heart and mind then they are our gods. If we wish to live in fullness with God then we must remove all other gods.
( Deuteronomy 5:9).

We may enjoy all of the good things that are placed on this world by God, and all of the blessing we receive from God, but we must enjoy them with God. And we must open our mind and heart to be controlled by God, not by the things that are placed on this world by God, and the blessings we receive from God. If we live that way then we please God, and if we please God then we will receive the gift of living in friendship and fullness on this world with God from God. Jesus Christ the Son of God paid for that gift for us from God when He died for our sins on the cross to unite us with God. Therefore thanks to the Son of God we may enjoy that friendship and fullness on this world with God. And thanks to the Son of God we can also forever after this life enjoy that friendship and fullness with God. However, we must open our heart to God and to the Son of God to receive that gift from God, for we cannot have fellowship with God without Jesus Christ the Son of God. For our fellowship with God is wrapped up in Jesus Christ the Son of God, for He opened the way for us to God when He paid for all of our sins by God that separated us from God.
( John 14:23)( 1 John 1:3 ).

We cannot live in fellowship and fullness with God if we do not accept of Jesus Christ the Son of God as our only lifeline to God. We must accept Jesus Christ the Son of God as our only Savior to be accepted by God, for without Jesus the Son of God we will never find acceptance by God. And if we are not accepted by God then we also can never live in fellowship with God. We will only be accepted by God and become part of God through Jesus Christ the Son of God; there is no other way to find acceptance by God and to become part of God.
( John 1:12 )( John 3:16-18 )( John 14:6 )
( Romans 3:23-26 )( 1 John 5:11-12 ).
