Showers of Blessing

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord. “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.” Isaiah 55:8-9.

God spoke to Abraham to get out of his country and from his family and from his father’s house to a land that God will show him. Abraham obeyed God every time God spoke to him and we see how he prospered. God wanted to bless Abraham so He wanted him to come out of his present condition. God has a master plan for each one of us just as he had for Abraham. Obey His plans, although at times it might sound strange but His ways are perfect. You will be blessed and your blessings will overflow when you go according to His plans. People who reside in the land to which you are taken will have supernatural favor on you. They will come out of the way to help you. He has set “ravens” to help you all the time.

Joseph was sold to the Ishmaelites and was taken to Egypt because his brothers hated him for the dream. As we read in Genesis 39:2 “The Lord was with Joseph, and he was a successful man” and in verse 3 it says “And his master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord made all he did to prosper in his hand.”

Let us see what Joseph had to say when he met his brothers in Egypt in Genesis 45:5. “But now, do not therefore be grieved or angry with yourselves because you sold me here; for God sent me before you to preserve life. Genesis 45:8 “So now it was not you who sent me here, but God, and He has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.”

So when the Lord takes you to a strange land believe that He has done everything for you as He did for Abraham and Joseph for He has better plans for you.

Previously, we were in a land where we were comfortably settled as per worldly standards but God wanted us to move into a new place. We obeyed God blindly and took a step of faith without any hesitation. Whenever we had to move we did it joyfully relying on His Word and were promoted to greater heights. Every change was for a purpose. This is our experience.

Walk in faith and Be Blessed!

  1. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose (Romans 8:28 KJV).

    TO understand - One must know the differnce of TRUST & FAITH. often people fail to distinguish and that just makes them "ordinary beliver". A Believer in Fire and Faith will often step out there comfort zone, and allow themselves to be in GOD's Plan - rather than making there own plan. "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths." (Proverbs 3:5-6)

  3. Absolutely right, Prince. Many of us do not realize that the real blessing is when you step out in faith. Once we came out of our comfort zone and stepped out in faith the Lord's hand kept moving in our lives and He has blessed us supernaturally during the last ten years. When the Lord visits us He always comes with a blessing! What a gracious and compassionate Lord we serve. Hallelujah!
