In my last post, I made it clear that God giveth power to be rich,but God doesn't just bless people but has put mechanism in place to ensure man is blessed.
I remembered saying the word of God says I will bless the work of your hand. God promises of blessing is to bless us through resources he has put in our capacity.
Today we will be looking :
How do you build capacity/ Areas you should build to receive God blessings
Build your skills : many want God blessing to come upon their work,but no effort to improve on his/ her skills. In the book of Daniel 1: 3 &4
KJV:And the king spake unto Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs, that he should bring certain of the children of Israel, and of the king's seed, and of the princess
KJV:Children in whom was no blemish, but well favoured, and skilful in all wisdom, and cunning in knowledge, and understanding science, and such as had ability in them to stand in the king's palace, and whom they might teach the learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans. You will notice from the passage above, an unbeliever king was not ready to look for people without sound skills, he wanted people who have enough skills to to work with him. God blessing may not come if one fails to build his/her skill. The word of God says the gift of man will make him stand before kings and not ordinary men. If any areas of out life or work, we must build and develop ourselves to meet the requirements . If Esther wasn't a virgin then, she will miss out of been the queen . Human preparation make him/her receive God blessing.
Be deligent in your work : to be deligent requires one to be patience while following the procedure. It also means waiting till the process complete. Many lunch out too early because they are not ready to wait for the process to be complete thereby missing out of God blessing
Prov 22: 29
KJV:Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.
Get the right knowledge : many are not getting the knowledge required of them in areas they find themselves. This makes me remember the story of Moses,whom after God had giving him directive, he succeeded yet he needs extra knowledge which is delegation of duty. This knowledge is needed as added advantage for Moses to make things easier for him in the leadership role. Untill Jethrol came and gave him insight that he needs he was over burden himself ( Exodus 18: 10 -26)
Learn to multiply the little with you: Gen 13:5-6 gave story of Abraham and Lot, both of which have their cows ,goat and sheep but at a point they both have use their skills and knowledge to increase the little with them to the point that both of them can't stay together because they had increase their resources. God is waiting and trusting us to be faithful with the little he has giving us. The word of God says that you that his faithful in little will be made ruler of much.
In the journey of life, you don't need too much strength but you need too much of sense.
I will continue this topic in my next article and we shall be looking at what do you do next after God has increase or bless someone.
Thanks for reading my article..see you again☺️☺️
