Bible study: How to receive blessings

Hey everyone! So today, I’m going to share with you all how to get blessings.

Before we get started, let’s have our moment of silence. 

At this time, I would like all of us to take a moment of silence and pray to God to guide us more towards him each day. Ask God to help us to honor him with all the work that we do. Take a minimum of 5 minutes and pray for this.

Now back to the show

How to get blessings

So the Bible actually has methods for obtaining blessings and favor from the Lord.

Let’s read a few bible verses as to how to obtain favor from the Lord and how to receive his blessings. 

Proverbs 3:3-4 states, “Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: Bind them about thy neck; Write them upon the table of thine heart: So shalt thou find favor and good understanding in the sight of God and man.”

What those verses are saying is to put mercy and truth within your heart. 

And if you do that, you will find favor in the sight of God and man.

That means that both God and man will favor you amongst other people. 

So that’s one verse that explains that we are to put truth and mercy within ourselves to find favor from God. 

Let’s continue

Proverbs 3: 9 – 10 states, “Honour the Lord with thy substance, And with the first fruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.”

That means to honor God with everything you have: Clothes, strength, height, talents, money, resources, etc. etc. and if you do that, the Lord will be the one to bless you. 

Proverbs 19: 17 states, “He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord; And that which he hath given will he pay him again.”

Do not be afraid to give to the poor, because God will repay you. 

But there is one last verse that I think is very helpful when receiving blessings.

Proverbs 18:12 states, “Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.”

So before you are honorable, you need to have gone through a humility phase in your life. 

And that word humility, it actually means lowliness, it means humble, it means meekness and small.

Before you are honorable, you need to have been small first. 

And that’s really what God is saying in these verses.
