Already Received Promises

Transcript:

So often, we have blessings being spoken over lives day in and day out and yet things do not seem to be changing in any areas of our lives. What are the things that are missing in our lives because of which we do not seem to receive blessing and promises from the Lord?

In Hebrews 7:6, we see Abraham met Melchizedek, king of Salem, on his way back from a war he had already won and received amazing spoils from this war. Melchizedek brought food and water and he nourished and refreshed Abraham. Abraham’s heart was so moved, and he decided to give one-tenth of everything that he had to this man of God. When Melchizedek received this one-tenth, he placed a blessing upon Abraham.

God had already given His promises to Abraham and still when Abraham saw somebody else who had also a blessing, promise, and glory upon his life, he wanted to honor him. Melchizedek blessed Abraham in spite of the promises that he had received from God. In other words, Melchizedek was not the carrier of the promises of God to Abraham and yet that one principle that Abraham activated is that of the giving of tithe/one-tenth which made it easier for Abraham to reach to his place of promise.

Many of us have promises from God but we are not doing anything to honor the people that God has placed around us and we are not activating the divine principles and protocols in different areas of our life to move the heart of God.

My prayer is that in this season the Lord will just open your eyes to see all those areas where you have made it hard for those promises of God over your life to come to pass and to also know and understand the one thing that you need to change today so that there will be an acceleration from your present place to your future place of promises.

You have to take active constant steps that will take you closer and that will accelerate your journey towards the promises that God has made over your life.
