Genesis 12:2
Most Christians want to bless others through their gifts and resources.
But it’s not just a desire.
God commands you to be a blessing to others because you have been blessed.
As you look for ways to bless others, keep in mind the four laws of God’s blessing:
- Your blessings should flow to others.
The Bible teaches that you are blessed not just so that you can feel good or so that you can be happy and comfortable.
You are blessed so that you will bless others.
This is the first law of blessing: It must flow outwardly.
- When you bless others, God takes care of your needs.
There’s almost nothing that God won’t do for the person who really wants to help other people.
In fact, God guarantees that if you will concentrate on blessing others, he’ll take care of your needs.
Luke 18:29-30
When you care about helping other people, God assumes responsibility for your problems.
And that’s a real blessing—because he’s much better at handling your difficulties than you are.
- Your blessings to others will come back to you.
The more you bless other people and the more you help others, the more God blesses your life.
Luke 6:38
You cannot out-give God.
The more you try to bless other people, the more God says, “I’m going to pour blessings out on you. We’ll play a little game here. Let’s see who will win. Let’s see who can give the most. The more you bless others, the more I’m going to bless you in return.”
- The more God blesses you, the more he expects you to help others.
Jesus said it this way in Luke 12:48
Never be afraid to share God’s blessings.
The more generous you are with sharing what God’s given you, the more you’ll see God blessing you in return.
Talk It Over
Think about some of the blessings God has given you.
Which ones have you shared with others?
Based on how much God has blessed you, how much do you think he expects you to bless others?
What will you do to bless someone today?
You don’t have to earn God’s love or work your way into heaven.
Ephesians 2:8-9
If you’re ready to commit your life to him, then pray this prayer:
“Dear God, I know I’m a sinner, and I ask for your forgiveness. I believe Jesus Christ is your Son. I believe that he died for my sins and that you raised him to life. Jesus, I want to trust you as my Savior and follow you as Lord from this day forward. Guide my life and help me to do your will. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.”
