Summary: It almost sounds to good to be true, how much God wants to bless His people. But unlike that saying in the world goes, if its to good to be true, it probably is. Its not with God, He truly loves to bless His children.

Why won’t you let Jesus Bless You?
When Jesus is a big part of your life, you can’t help but be Blessed. The longer you serve Him, the more you realize, He really does know, what He’s doing.
It almost sounds to good to be true, how much God wants to bless us.
But unlike that saying in the world goes, if its to good to be true, it probably is.
Its not with God, He truly loves to bless His children. Sometimes we forget how good serving God really is!!
Psalms 68:19 NKJ
Blessed be the Lord,
Who daily loads us with benefits,
The God of our salvation! Selah
When a person finally decides to put God to the test, put Him 1st in their life and start living by kingdom principles and not just reading about them.
Good things start to happen, and happen all the time.
Someone might say, well that’s never happened to me. I’ve been going to church for 40 yrs.
Well maybe you’ve never gave your all before to the Lord, I’m talking about Your time, your talent, your desire, your tithe, your everything.
I’m talking about not holding anythging back!
He’s not a respecter of persons, which means if you are willing to give your all, so is He!!!
The word clearly states, if you take care of Gods business, He will take care of yours
I don’t know about you, but I think He does a better job watching my portfolio then I can, how about you?
Blessed be the Lord,
Who daily loads us with benefits,
The God of our salvation!
I. Living In The Blessings of the Lord!
It is God’s nature to bless His children
God does not keep books on the blessings that He gives to us. If He did we would owe Him more than we even think we did.
With Gods blessings its impossible to overdraft your account, in fact I believe that there are blessings we walk right by, each and everyday.
Unclaimed millions the state of Indiana has, I wonder a many millions of unclaimed blessings God has, that have never been claimed.
Others see God’s blessings upon our lives, as being rationed through out our lives.
Don’t want to ask for to much now, might need one later.
What they fail to understand is: His Blessings are inexhaustible, its not an intermitent thing, both now and later God wants to Bless His Children!!
Too Many people think, the idea of Blessing is just something you do before you eat; or something that is said when a person sneezes.
Still others say “well I don’t want people to think I’m all about money, I just want to remain humble.” Just give me a little cabin over in the corner of glory land.
You stay humble all you want, my bible says that I’m an heir to the world, I have a spiritual inheritance to claim. The Jesus I serve went to prepare a mansion for me.
I have the blessing of Abraham, I’m a child of the King!!
God says He wants to bless me, I WANT WHAT GOD WANTS, don’t you.
Who am I, to keep God from having what He wants!
Matthew 7:11 NKJ
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
Parents, you give your kids the best of things don‘t you?,
why would anyone think our heavenly father would do any less for His children???
Ephesians 1:3 NKJ
3. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,
4. just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,
5. having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,
6. to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.
We have been chosen in Jesus before the foundation of the world, to receive every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places
And the moment you became a Christian and accepted Jesus as your Lord and savior,
your sins were washed away and you received the righteousness of God thru Christ Jesus.
Vs. 6 says: He made us accepted in the Beloved, which means He was well pleased with Jesus His beloved son,
and since we are in Christ Jesus, He is well pleased with us as well!
The devil and the world, would tell you that you are not qualified to receive the blessings that God has for you,
