Let Us Seek Blessings (Isaiah 65:16)
God does not rest. Because He has not been resting since the beginning until today and shall not rest in the future, either (Is 62:6-7), laziness is God's enemy (Mt 25:26-30), and He will operate through curses, let alone blessings. It is not foolishness to seek blessings, it is faith and obedience (Ge 32:26). Jesus also sought blessings (Lk 24:50-51) and the Holy Spirit also is the one who grants them. Bestowing blessings is God's will (Ps 133:3), the intended will of Jesus Christ and that of the Spirit as well. He who is ashamed of blessings shall never enjoy them whereas he who loves them shall acquire them (Ez 44:30). Men of God are those who seek blessings constantly.
¡Û Because blessings are God's property, one can obtain them from no one else.
¡Û Because blessings are real situations, he who is fond of them as abstractions shall not obtain them.
¡Û Because blessings are God's working, only he who serves God receives them.
¡Ø Let us receive blessings. Let us seek blessings. Let us seek them zealously and enjoy them.
