HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN A MAN IS BLESSED?
Don’t define a man’s blessings by the things you can see around him or her. One of the most visible things around a blessed person is that he will have the ability to survive all odds. No matter any confrontation or challenges, oppositions, disadvantages he faces; hewill still succeed.
By this I know that thou favourest me, and raise me up, that I may requite them – Psalm 41:11
When you are highly favoured, nothing will be able to overpower you. You will face confrontations, but they will not be able to overpower you. You may lose your job but a greater one is coming. You may lose some money but that will not be the end of your story.
Joseph was one of the examples of people that were blessed in the scripture. Everything that was against him ended up working for him.
You can’t win a blessed man. Even if you are stronger than him, you can’t win him. It’s not about him; it’s about the blessing that’s in him. It’s not about you but God’s blessings that are in you. There is nothing the enemy wants to do that will change God’s destiny over your life. There’s nothing you can go through that will stop the hand of God from operating in your life. Joseph passed through a lot yet; he ended up being a prime minster. You can’t keep a blessed man down. You can talk him down but you can’t put him down.
Rejoice not against me, o mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light unto me – Micah 7:8
All things work together for a blessed man. Covenant blessing is contagious. This is why you must know who to connect with. Curse also is contagious. The only reason why a boat was sinking is because of one person – Jonah until Jesus came to the rescue.
Blessings convert evil to good. Joseph said “you thought it for my evil but God has transformed it for my good”
But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive – Gen 50:20
If God be for us who can be against us? Every opposition will be a raw material for your promotion.
God is an eternal God. When he blesses you, you are blessed forever. Whatever God releases in you has to live for eternity. It carries eternity as the expiry date. If you buy a product, there are two dates on it: the manufacturing date and the expiry date. Every blessing from heaven has eternity to live.
I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, not anything taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him – Eccl.3:14
God has blessed you, He cannot change His mind.
Don’t be afraid of being blessed. Some people are always afraid when thing are going smoothly in their finance, health, business or marriage. They are afraid the enemy may come in anytime. But, what God has blessed no man can curse.
People can look at you and say you are not intelligent enough to be blessed. They will say you don’t look like you should be blessed. That’s people’s opinion. To God, you are qualified for His blessings. You are blessed.
The devil is a trickster; he can’t change what God has done. The devil knows once God has blessed someone, he can’t change it.Even Satan can’t change the blessings of God in your life.
