Today’s Devotion
Topic: Positioned for Blessings
Text: Malachi 3:10 (NKJV)
“Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And try Me now in this,” Says the Lord of hosts, “If I will not open for you the windows of heaven And pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it.” Amen.
God wants to open the windows of heaven and pour out blessings on you today and every day of the year.
But notice that today’s verse reveals there is something we have to do first—we have to step out in faith and bring our tithes and offerings to Him. In other words, we have to be obedient to God with our finances. We have to remember that we are stewards over the resources God has given us.
When we are good and faithful stewards, the Lord entrusts us with more. He opens the windows of heaven. Have you ever thought about what kind of blessing would be so great that there would not be room enough to receive it? It may be hard to comprehend, but that’s what God’s Word promises—to overwhelm us with His blessings!
Be encouraged today, dearly beloved, be a giver, a “tither” and a friend to the needy. Put yourself in a position to receive His blessing. Begin to thank Him for His faithfulness. Lift up your eyes to Him. As the scripture says, prove Him and see Him move mightily on your behalf!
Pray with these points:
(i) Thank God for choosing to bless you.
(ii) Also thank Him for opening the windows of heaven in your life.
(iii) Pray for the Lord to help you be obedient to His Word.
For all the Lord is and has been doing, giving back to Him should have been the easiest deed. One which from the depth of our hearts we do, without any struggles. How is it then that we complain and murmur at the least call to give? Click: https://youtu.be/MIVvDD7GEKs
