Good morning ☀️
I’m reading Deuteronomy 28. The first 14 verses promise BLESSINGS for obedience and the remaining 53 verses describe CURSES for disobedience. Prosperity preachers focus on the blessings and rarely mention the curses. We would do well to read and meditate on the entire chapter.
Let’s start our day with some of the blessings realizing they are conditional.
“If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations on earth. All these blessings will come on you and accompany you if you obey the Lord your God: You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country.”
We seem to be living through the curses right now. #pray #Christian #Israel #America Human ingenuity will not solve the world’s problems.
Every Believer is struggling with something. Perfection is not ours on earth, but we still celebrate our knowledge and relationship with the King. 👑
“Therefore, in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”
2 Corinthians 12: 6-10 NIV).

Greetings, 👋
God keeps His promises. What He does for one, He will do for another. It’s about our relationship with Him.
“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.
For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.
Isaiah 43: 1b-3a (NIV).
Greetings 👋
What is God saying to us? Does God know us BEFORE we are born? The WORD says . . .
“Upon you I have leaned from before my birth; you are he who took me from my mother's womb. My praise is continually of you.”
Psalm 71: 5-6 (ESV).
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.”
Jeremiah 1:5 (ESV).
