LOOK!

"But the servant replied, "Look, in this town there is a man of God; he is highly respected, and everything he says comes true.  Let's go there now.  Perhaps he will tell us what to way to take."

1 Samuel 9:6

My friend, LOOK!  Look around you; seek out the men and women of God in this world.  They are here for you; they can help you, they can speak words of life into you, they can surround you in prayer and help direct you on your way.  You are not alone - not ever - God makes sure of it.  So, begin to look around; look around with the eyes of your heart - listen with the ears of your heart.  Pay attention to everyone you come in contact with, because the answers to which you seek, the prayers you wish to be answered, and/or the directions you seek, just might be in the words of the stranger you pass by on the street.

When you pay attention to God and do what he tells you...

”If you pay attention to these laws and are careful to follow them, then the Lord your God... will love you and bless you and increase your numbers.  He will bless the fruit of your womb, the crops of your land - your grain, new wine and oil - the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks in the land that he swore to your forefathers... You will be blessed more than any other people; none of your men or women will be childless... the Lord will keep you free from every disease...”

Deuteronomy 7:12-15

Yes, when you follow God with all your mind, heart, body and soul, you will be, (you already are), blessed to no end - life is one victory after another for you.

Want to be blessed abundantly? Then, obey God - do what he says

"If you fully obey the Lord you God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations on earth.  All these blessings will com upon you and accompany you if you obey the Lord you God:

You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country.

the fruit of your womb will be blessed, and crop of your land and the young of your livestock...

Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed.

You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.

The Lord will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you.  They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven.

The Lord will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hand to.  The Lord your God will bless you in the land he is giving you.

The Lord will establish you as his holy people... all the peoples on earth will see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they will fear you.  The Lord will grant you abundant prosperity...

The Lord will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands.  You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none.  The Lord will make you the head and not the tail... You will always be at the top, never at the bottom.  Do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today, to the right or to the left, following other gods and serving them."

Deuteronomy 28:1-14

The blessings of God come when you look to him, listen to him, and follow him, and him alone!
