Sermon: TAKING THE RESPONSIBILITY OF RECEIVING

Sunday service sermon by Evangelist Y Pamdaya

Topic: TAKING THE RESPONSIBILITY OF RECEIVING

Text: 2 Peter 1:3 KJV
According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:

The only thing that is free brethren is your salvation, beside there are things you must do to be bless or to receive from the Lord, brethren am not talking of sacrificing to idol but self denying
So nothing is free.
The question we need to ask and have answer to is WHAT MUST I DO TO BE BLESS OF GOD? and that is our focus today

Gos created everything and make man to rule over them, so it mean that you have been provided for by the lord all that you need
2 Peter 1:3 KJV
According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
This vers means all that you needs has already been giving you, name it, child, education, house etc
The question is WHERE US MY OWN BLESSING?
WHO IS HOLDING MY BLESSING ? Because the Bible say God has giving me, so God can't hold it away from me.

KEY TO RECEIVE FROM GOD

1. HAVE A HEAVENLY FOCUS.
Let your life center at the fact that you want to go heaven. So where is your focus
Matthew 6:33 KJV
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Matthew 6:19-20 KJV
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: [20] But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
Colossians 3:1-2 KJV
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. [2] Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

2. FAITH
If the greatest prophecy is said in to your life if you lack faith nothing we happen, it is by faith you receive from God, every time we hear prophecies of blessing and miracle how many of it manifested in our life. How strong is your faith? The bible say if you have faith you can tell mountain to live and it shall be, its not a matter of running from one prophet to another
Mark 11:23-24 KJV
For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. [24] Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them , and ye shall have them .

3. OBEDIENT
There is no anybody that has ever obey Gods word and lack, how obedient are you? If you disobey forget the blessing of God
Hebrews 5:9 KJV
And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;
And again the Bible say if ye willing and obedient ye will eat the fruit of the land. Don't forget the sarephat widow, she use obedient to collect her blessing , she didn't refuse, she took care of Gods servant and was blessed, so many of us love to hide Gods blessing they are liars, the widow say this is all I have to the man of God when the man of God asked her, so many of us don't use to obey the alter call,

4. HAVING THE WISDOM OF GOD
Gods wisdom guide and help from falling into wrong hand, if you are not wise in this world you cant be blessed, because devil will make sure he deceive you, people will use you and dump you, and beside God can't entrust his blessing on fools who will mismanaging it.

5. YOU MUST ENLARGE YOUR CAPACITY

Isaiah 54:2-3 KJV
Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; [3] For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.
There are some miracles and Gods blessing that is too big for you and for your wisdom, so you need to enlarge your capacity, learn more, receive training of the word of God on how to manage Gods spiritual resources

6. ASK ACCORDING TO GODS WILL
1 John 5:14-15 KJV
And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: [15] And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.

IN CONCLUSION
God has already giving you all you need, including salvation, all you need to do is to reach your hand and get your, be save today and forever
Salvation is the gift of God. Gibe your life to Jesus
