TRIGGER THE BLESSING

Have you thanked Him?

Have you praised Him?

Have you made it your priority to agree and cooperate with Him today?

Have you taken that deep breath and listened for what He has for you today?

1 Timothy 2:1 (The Message)

The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know.

Use whatever gift you’ve received for the good of one another so that you can show yourselves to be good stewards of God’s grace in all its varieties. 1 Peter 4:10 (V)

How do you plan to make today a little better for someone else?

Hadn’t thought about that?

Got a little too much on YOUR plate to even hope to consider the plate of another?

I know it is hard.

We are all so so busy.  The demands on each of us, on our time, our resources can be and is often exhausting. There doesn't seem to be the time nor the resources to even think about something like blessing others most days.

But trust me.

If you want a little more energy for your pending to do’s, add one or two that is designed to “bless someone else” to make another's life better and GOD will infuse you with blessing and the energy to carry it out when you do! 1 Peter 3:9 (MSG) …bless—that’s your job, to bless. You’ll be a blessing and also get a blessing.

But now you say you don’t feel like you have anything to offer someone else?

Read that little verse from 1 Peter again this morning!

That is not the case!

GOD has GIFTED you for SHARING HIS GRACE.  GOD’s grace and hope are unlimited! GOD’s grace and hope are infinite in their supply!  Therefore, GOD has gifted you uniquely today to SHARE what HE has already blessed you with!

So, don’t get apprehensive or ever think that you don’t have enough in your tank to share or that what you have to offer another is of no value.

Quite the contrary!

What you have is truly remarkable!

How do I know?

1 Peter says that your "GIFTING" was picked ESPECIALLY for you to SHARE with others. 

GOD crafted it. 

GOD set you apart with it!

GOD wants and longs for you to SHARE it so that HE might be glorified! 

Don't miss out on that!

Give freely and spontaneously. Don’t have a stingy heart. The way you handle matters like this triggers God, your God’s, blessing in everything you do – Deuteronomy 15:11(MSG)

See?

When we share the hope and GRACE of CHRIST, GOD BLESSES the other THROUGH US and FOR US and amazingly enough, GOD then blesses us too!

“Love only grows by sharing. You can only have more for yourself by giving it away to others.”

― Brian Tracy

So, ask yourself the question again.

How do you plan to make today a little better for someone else?

Let me help.

Ask GOD to help you SHARE the gifts you been given, and HE will trigger the blessing; both for them and you!

HAVE A BLESSED DAY!

Love you all!
