One of God’s life-giving promises is, “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matthew 6:33
Jean and I marvel every day at the blessings God has allowed us to experience and take part in.
Once you have known a life of blessings as you have truly sought God first you can be confronted with a subtle and lethal trap.
We look back and realize that the blessings started when we took the actions that
God set as conditions to receive the promises. The enemy tempts us to think it was our doing that qualified us.
That’s the trap.
Our obedience is not creative it is only acceptive. God does the creating and just requires us to live as acceptors of His mercy and grace. It’s God’s doing, not ours.
To God be the glory
