"He saved them from the hand of him who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy. The waters covered their adversaries. There was not one of them left. Then they believed his words. They sang his praise. They soon forgot his works. They didn't wait for his counsel."(Psa 106:10-13)
Here is the beginning of the destruction of Israelites. God delivered them from the strong - cruel hand of Pharaoh by his mighty hand. Jehovah performed so many miracles in the land of their enemy. They saw all those miracles by their eyes. They saw the mighty hand of The God of Israel divided the sea and when the water became like a wall to them. They saw by their own eyes when the Pharaoh’s chariots cast into the sea and his army drowned in the Red Sea. Yes, They sang His praise with the laud voice by saying:
“ I will sing to the Lord, for He has triumphed gloriously! The horse and its rider He has thrown into the sea! The Lord is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation; He is my God, and I will praise Him; My fathers God I will exalt Him.” Ex15:1-2
But soon, when they begun the journey to their promise land through the wilderness, they forgot all the blessings, the miracles… all the works done by their God.
Brothers & sisters of mine, I want to call back your memories. Just seat back and count the works of God that are performed in your life on those past years. I am not saying remember your bad days and failures or the things you lost… forget them! But think and meditate what God has done in your life. If you do so, you will be filled in faith and you will be strong for tomorrows’ journey.
O you blessed sons and daughters of my Father! I have a different message for you today while you are counting your blessings. Check what you are counting. Are you counting your account balance in the Bank or in your wallet? Or are you looking to your mansion, cars, business…? Are you satisfied by what you have and you are thinking these are the real blessings of your father? ..."Yes!" you can say me “Every good gift and every perfect present comes from heaven; it comes down from God, the Creator of the heavenly lights, who does not change or cause darkness by turning.”
But, you sons and daughters of my Father, let me show you the real blessing that comes from heaven. “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! He has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realm” (Eph.1:3)
Know that these blessings are the blessings of HEAVENLY REALM, because they came from heaven. So then, they will show you where and from where you are. Let us count them together.
1. Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.
2. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
3. Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.
4. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled.
5. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
6. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
7. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.
8. Blessed are those who have been persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.
9. Blessed are you when people reproach you, persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven. For that is how they persecuted the prophets who were before you. (Mat 5:1-12)
Hope you know that you can’t buy them from any religious markets, or they will not be found any were in this world. Or your work is not necessary to make them yours. THEY ARE SIMPLY YOURS IN CHRIST JESUS. Are you IN CHRIST? Then they are yours. So seat back and count your blessings. How many of them are manifested in your life? Search your heart. Be sure, all are in you. Because CHRIST IS IN YOU. As much as you are living in Him, you will be blessed more & more by these blessings.
