Blessed In This Life & the Next

I am surprised by the amount of people whom believe in God, who don’t consider themselves blessed. As if God is only the God of Curses but not the God of Blessings. I mention in this message that according to scripture you can be blessed and cursed at the same time:

'I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) ' Revelation 2:9

We are in poverty but we are rich, we are under much tribulations but we are blessed. My subject for this messages surrounds the scripture Luke 18:29-30 where Christ proclaims that you can be Blessed In This Life & the Next:

““Truly I tell you,” Jesus said to them, “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or sisters or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God will fail to receive many times as much in this age, and in the age to come eternal life.”” Luke 18:29-30

Personally in my entire life, I have never seen the righteous forsaken. Those or Them, he or she, diligently seeking after God daily, I have never seen that person forsaken

“I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread.” Psalm 37:25

I’ve often said this to people, but thought we are cursed as a people. If you personally Follow Gods Laws, His Commandments, His Statutes, His ways and you will be individually blessed in this life and the next:

“And when we were carried away captives to Nineve, all my brethren and those that were of my kindred did eat of the bread of the Gentiles. But I kept myself from eating; Because I remembered God with all my heart. And the most High gave me grace and favour before Enemessar, so that I was his purveyor.” Tobit 1:10-13
