Gifts from Above!

 

“…how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!”

Matthew 7:11

Gifts from Above

Oluwafemi, God is going to bring gifts across your path that you’ve never seen—forgiveness, favor, wisdom, mercy, abundance, relationships. They are gifts. You don’t have to force them out of God’s hands. You don’t have to talk God into giving them. You don’t have to perform good enough. Just be a receiver. “God, You promise that whom the Son sets free is free indeed. I receive that freedom right now. You say my latter days would be better than my former days. I receive a bright future. You say my children will be mighty in the land. I receive that by faith.” Now thoughts will whisper, “You’ve seen your best days. Nothing good is in your future.” You have a choice. You can let the gift sit there and think, “You’re probably right. I want to be blessed, but it’s never going to happen.” That’s self-sabotaging. Do yourself a favor and receive God’s far and beyond favor. “Heavenly Father, I receive the gifts, the promises, the abundance, the great relationships, a long healthy life, and a bountiful, productive, abundant year.”

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that You are constantly showing me Your goodness, with every good gift that comes into my life. Thank You that I can receive Your gifts of grace and believe the promises You have spoken are coming true. I will live today with an attitude of thankfulness and gratefulness. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
