READ: MATTHEW 6:20-21
God is very balanced. Just as He releases a
flood of blessings, so also does He release a flood of destruction. Showers of
blessings and floods of judgement both emanate from God. If you miss out on
God’s blessings, you will end up with the rain of destruction. What you receive
from God at the end of the day is determined by your attitude and approach to
the conditions laid down in His word. Remember, God can turn a blessing into a
curse. The same God, who sends rain as a blessing, also sends flood through
rain as a weapon of judgement. What you will receive as a believer depends on
which side you are. If you are located on the same side with obedience, you
will earn God’s favour, which will release the blessings. If you are on the
opposite side, you will earn God’s wrath. Where are you presently located?
Rain is required to sustain life in plants, animals and human beings. But the same rain, when allowed to flow in excess causes a flood. A flood is a disaster that cannot easily be controlled. Imagine a street flooded with all the houses submerged. All the electrical gadgets will spoil. All the furniture will be soaked. All the books too. Even the certificates and other precious documents that are tucked away will not be spared. May you never experience God’s flood of judgement in Jesus name.
If you are not born again, you do not qualify for God’s flood of blessings but the flood of judgement. To avert this judgement, repent of your sinful lifestyle and ask God for forgiveness. Receive Jesus Christ into your life. He is the Ark (Hebrews: 6:18-19). As long as you remain in Him, you will be safe. Live a daily life of obedience. In Deuteronomy 11:26, God sets death and life and before you: Your choice is what determines whether you will be blessed or not. Choose life today.
How are you managing God’s resources in your care? May your blessings never turn against you in Jesus name. Use the blessings as the Holy Spirit directs. The One who gave the blessing has reasons for them. Find out what God wants you to do with the blessings and comply completely. That way, the blessings will never run dry.

therefore the words of this covenant and do them, that you may prosper in all
that you do.
