The Land Of The Blessing

Apostle Grace Lubega

Deuteronomy 28:8(KJV); The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

I know a man who left his homeland only to settle in a homeless shelter in another country. He was hunting for green pastures, but what is so green about a homeless shelter?

That man did not understand the blessing of the Lord.

The blessing of the Lord is tagged to the land that He has given unto you. It is His intention to bless you in that place that He has ordained as your portion.

That’s the language in our theme scripture; “He shall bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee”.

You don’t need to travel to other nations in search of greener pastures in order to count yourself as blessed.

This does not mean that whosoever leaves their native land and goes to another nation is wrong to do so. However, there are those who move without a sense of divine purpose; they are not instructed by God but are simply convinced in their minds that a better life awaits them in other nations.

That is not the mind-set of a child of God who has understood the blessing of the Lord.

God can bless you anywhere as long as it is where He has ordained for you to be.

It doesn’t matter how remote the place is; He will still bless you.

Take comfort in the understanding that you are where you are for a reason; there is a reason you were born in that particular nation; a reason you speak their language; a reason you drank of its waters and ate the food from its ground.

If it is where God has purposed you should be, His blessing will work in you and for you right there.

His great name be praised!

GOLDEN NUGGET:

God can bless you anywhere as long as it is where He has ordained for you to be. Take comfort in the understanding that you are where you are for a reason; there is a reason you were born in that particular nation; a reason you speak their language; a reason you drank of its waters and ate the food from its ground.

PRAYER: Loving God, thank you for the blessing upon my life. I am in my nation for a reason and to fulfil your great and eternal purpose. I stand in the blessed assurance that no matter where you have placed me, blessings follow me. If it be a place far from civilisation, men will dig roads to get to me because I carry the blessing; My nation is prosperous because I am in it; I walk in the confidence that what matters most is that I have you. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
