Deuteronomy 28:1-2&15 (amplified)
1 If you will listen diligently to the voice of the Lord your God, being watchful to do all His commandments which I command you this day, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth.
2 And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you if you heed the voice of the Lord your God.
15 But if you will not obey the voice of the Lord your God, being watchful to do all His commandments and His statutes which I command you this day, then all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you:
I KNOW I'M BLESSED; I AM BLESSED OF GOD...OR ARE YOU?
I'm blessed, God is blessing me, these and many other sayings we like to say about the blessings of God on our lives. But have we stopped to see are we really blessed or is it the grace of God covering us. Have you ever notice that some of the same things we say are blessings, sinners have them or are doing them also? So how can I be sure that I’m blessed? Looking at our scripture today, it tells us that if we listen diligently to God and keep ALL HIS COMMANDMENTS, then blessings shall come upon us and overtake us. Have you ever been overtaken by a blessing? This means it just comes on suddenly…HALLELUJAH GLORY TO GOD! That says something right there, you are not expecting it, it just comes! You didn’t work for it, it just comes! GLORY! NOW THAT’S A BLESSING! Think about the things that just happened, that just came because of your obedience to God. Those are your blessings according to the word. However we can’t just look at one side. Unfortunately there are curses when we do not heed to the voice of God and keep ALL HIS COMMANDMENTS. And the word says these curses can overtake us as well. We must believe the whole word of God and not take what we want and leave the rest. The word is right and true...AMEN. I encourage you to read the whole chapter of Deuteronomy 28 and ask yourself are you truly blessed, challenge yourself with the word of God and watch blessings OVERTAKE YOU! PRAISE GOD!
OBEDIENCE BRINGS BLESSINGS; DISOBEDIENCE BRINGS CURSES!
Always a blessing

GOOD MORNING GOWM!
Colossians 3:1-4 (amplified)
1 If then you have been raised with Christ [to a new life, thus sharing His resurrection from the dead], aim at and seek the [rich, eternal treasures] that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.
2 And set your minds and keep them set on what is above (the higher things), not on the things that are on the earth.
3 For [as far as this world is concerned] you have died, and your [new, real] life is hidden with Christ in God.
4 When Christ, Who is our life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in [the splendor of His] glory.
THIS IS MY LIFE, OR IS IT?
Many of us continue to look for what to do with our life. We look in books, listen to our favorite speakers, seek a psychologist, and even discuss with our friends. Although these are not bad things, they are not the right way to seek what to do with your life. If we say we are born again believers, then we are risen with Christ into a new life. A life that doesn't belong to us but to the one who purchased it, Jesus Christ. When looking for what to do next with your life, look to Jesus. Stop looking at things here on earth (your circumstances). Yes your circumstances can impact things but it doesn't dictate your life. Christ is more than your savior, He is Lord of all! It's not our life, we have died. We have given up our ghost and picked up the Holy Ghost. When Christ is your life, look to Him for the answers. Your life is hidden in Him and when He appears, you appear and will glory in Him.
MY LIFE BELONGS TO CHRIST, IT IS NOT MINE. I HAVE DIED WITH HIM AND AM RISEN IN HIM!
Always a blessing,
Lady B

GOOD MORNING GOWM!
Ephesians 2:8-10 (amplified)
8 For it is by free grace (God’s unmerited favor) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation) through [your] faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [of your own doing, it came not through your own striving], but it is the gift of God;
9 Not because of works [not the fulfillment of the Law’s demands], lest any man should boast. [It is not the result of what anyone can possibly do, so no one can pride himself in it or take glory to himself.]
10 For we are God’s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].
You have been saved by grace, the grace of the Almighty God! There is nothing you can or have done that makes you saved. It is by grace alone! Stop trying to live right and LIVE RIGHT! Stop trying to stop cursing and STOP CURSING! Stop trying to stop having sex without marriage and STOP HAVING SEX WITHOUT MARRIAGE! Stop trying to stop talking about your sister/brother and STOP TALKING ABOUT YOUR SISTER/BROTHER! Stop trying to do all the right things and DO WHAT IS RIGHT! How can you know what is right you ask? God is right, His Word is right, and His Spirit is right. READ THE WORD and find out what is right. Apply the word in EVERYTHING YOU DO and you can't go wrong. If you don't read God's Word guess what, you don't have faith! Faith comes by hearing the word of God. If you don't have faith guess what, you can't receive grace from God. If you don't have the grace of God guess what, YOU ARE NOT SAVED!
FOR IT IS BY FREE GRACE FROM GOD THAT YOU ARE SAVED THROUGH FAITH!
ALWAYS A BLESSING!
