Can you name all your blessings you received the last 5 years?




Deuteronomy 28: 2 (AMP)

“All these blessings will come upon you and overtake you if you pay attention to the voice of the LORD your God.”

I was asked if I can name all the blessings I received the last couple of years, say for the last 5 years. I thought about it and I actually can name my blessings. I am blessed with work for the past couple of years which seemed impossible.  I thank God for this opportunity and I believe God changes even the Kings heart. Yes, I can also tell about the wonderful experience I have had when it comes to my cake business. I am not very good at calculating my costs but in time I will get there. But praise God even my cakes are doing well.

In my personal life, I am also very blessed, I think of Mothers Day when all my children come and visit me and bring me beautiful gifts. I wasn’t even expecting to see them, praise God for this. I must tell you even during the year when I feel at my lowest my children phone me out of the blue. I truly am blessed.

In my relationship with my husband and stepchildren, I am blessed there as well. I have received unexpected gifts from my husband and stepchildren. I didn’t expect anything from my husband as I know he has bought me a ring and we are waiting for it to be delivered, and he bought me the most beautiful bunch of flower. My heart sang for joy.

Work wise, God has honestly helped me here. I am so grateful for this opportunity, it opens a door for me to do things I could have done otherwise. I praise the Lord for these opportunities.
I read that an Author John Mason said “We typically see things not as they are, but as we are. By how we position ourselves, we’ll see the evidence of God everywhere or nowhere. Too often our minds are locked on one track. We’re looking everywhere, and the answer is under our nose. When a person is positioned correctly, he’s ready to receive all God has for him.”

I believe that I am obedient to God check this link to Deuteronomy 28 verse 2 – 13 in the King James Version. 

Can you identify all the blessings in your life for the past 5 years. Sit down and make a note, write them down and give praise offers to the Lord our God.

Prayer

Abba Father, humbly I come into Your presence, bring You praise and I worship at Your feel, I believe Lord that You are a good, good Father, You care deeply about each and everyone of us. I dedicate all my family and friends into Your hands today. I pray for supernatural blessings for our obedience. In the Holy Name of Jesus Christ my Lord and my Saviour. Amen

2nd Wedding Anniversary!

Hey, hey it is my 2 nd anniversary!   This has been an interesting time in my life and I must be honest I am starting to see the changes in my own life.    Firstly remember I am a city girl with this bad ass attitude, my way or the highway.   Ah, now let me tell you that doesn’t work like this.   My husband has a firm hand over me and keeps me in toe.   I am still my own person and have many new interests.    How was my day today?   Well the normal, got out of bed at 04h30 and then left the house by 06h00 arriving at work at 07h00.   Then to top it off in an early morning meeting at 07h30 to 08h30, then back in the office.   I worked on three projects; getting information from people isn’t that easy.   I firstly completed my own scope of work, followed up with the suppliers and then going back to the next person.   As I work according to my time keeping schedule I then finally got to lunch time.   I...

Wisdom in Trusting God

Proverbs 3: 5-6 NIV “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.” My journey has been really interesting and there are days when I find it really difficult to trust in God.  On those days I go and make all kinds of plans and I think and worry about the matter at hand and at the end of that day I am tired, frustrated and I feel sick to my stomach.  Are you able to relate?   It sounds so easy when you read these words “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;”  Many times I take my problems to the LORD and I leave them with the LORD and after some serious thinking and worrying I go back to the LORD and take the problems back. This has been something I did for a number of years and lately, I have realized it has to change, I have to trust in the LORD.  After all, God is the creator and knows the plans for...
