God, today, wants us to understand that every single one of us has been declared blessed of God. Do you feel that way? The blessings of God come with Him. I’m not seeking the blessing; I’m seeking the One Who blesses.

The blessings of God are not like ripe cherries that just fall from the tree on you haphazardly, or occasionally, or almost nonsensically. It doesn’t happen that way. The “seeking first the kingdom of God” standard perpetuates a cycle of blessing in your life. To leave it alone is to your own peril.

Now God wants to do something absolutely great in your and my life. But it’s not just to be contained in this generation, or for this crowd. The blessings of the Lord have an inherent “seed” characteristic. That once something explodes of a revelation in your heart, it’s not contained to you. It was given to you, and it blesses you, but it moves through you to other generations. So as the seed comes to you, it goes through you; and it becomes more and more seed. It’s called the law of reciprocity. That whenever God plants something in our lives, it becomes fruit on our branches, drops to the ground, becomes more seed for more trees to produce more fruit; and it exponentially grows to the next generation, and to the next, and to the next. So that what we come to understand is that God is more than enough. He’s not, “barely enough,” and if you think He is, it will make you stingy.

Some people say, “I think God wants to give you just barely enough.” Well, that is the most selfish thing I’ve ever heard in my life. Understanding that on one side of the ditch you have some folks claiming your spirituality is measured by the amount of money you have in an account, how many cars you have in your driveway, or how big or numerous your houses are; (and I just want you to know that all of that stuff is bunk, it’s absolutely ridiculous, the spirit of man is all over that); but on the other side of the ditch - is the “barely get along crowd” who says; “God is meeting my needs and that’s all that I want.” And I just want you to know that that’s equally as stupid. You say, “Well I think it’s humble.” No, it’s stupid. Why? Because if you settle for only having your needs met; then you’ve only got enough for you, and you have nothing to share with others. You can’t be generous, like the heart of God wants you to be.

Seek the One Who blesses, so that through you, He may bless more.
