RECEIVING DIVINE BLESSINGS

RECEIVING DIVINE BLESSINGS


Have you ever heard of
The “PROSPERITY GOSPEL?”
It is a BELIEF
That the FAITHFUL
Will be blessed
With MATERIAL riches
And worldly success


I don't think that
I believe in that=
However=I do believe
We can RECEIVE
DIVINE BLESSINGS from God


Today's gospel is in DIRECT
OPPOSITION of the prosperity gospel=
It states that
We might RECEIVE
The same hardships
And REJECTION
That Jesus did


“If they PERSECUTED me=
They will PERSECUTE YOU” John 15:20


And most of the APOSTLES
Were martyred too=
They died for their FAITH
The way that JESUS did


In a way
The PROSPERITY GOSPEL
Can be considered TRUE


While we may
NOT RECEIVE worldly blessings=
We do receive
DIVINE BLESSINGS
In this life


We are BROUGHT into
A DIVINE RELATIONSHIP
With Jesus and the FATHER


And he gives us
The strength
TO ENDURE
Whatever we have to


RECEIVING DIVINE BLESSINGS!


“I will make them
And the places
Surrounding my hill
A BLESSING


I will send down
Showers in season
There will be
SHOWERS OF BLESSING” Ezekiel 34:26


“BLESSINGS crown the head
Of the righteous=
But violence overwhelms
The mouth
Of the wicked” Proverbs 10:6


Jesus promised us
That we would be
REJECTED and suffer
As he did
In this world


But he also
Promised us DIVINE BLESSINGS
This is really
TRUE PROSPERITY


RECEIVING divine blessings
From the LORD


“His DIVINE POWER
Has given us
Everything we need
For a godly life


Through our knowledge
Of him
Who called us
By his own glory
And goodness” 2 Peter 1:3


These BLESSINGS=
These riches
Are the ones
That LAST FOREVER
And ever=even
Into the NEXT LIFE


In Jesus' name=and the name=of OUR ETERNAL FATHER
