You Are Blessed

I was reading through Psalm 23, Isaiah 43, and Deuteronomy 28 and thinking about how blessed we are. Rather we feel like it or not we are blessed and not cursed. We have what we believe. Moses said, Deuteronomy 28:1-2 “Now if you faithfully obey the voice of the LORD your God and are careful to follow all His commandments I am giving you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth. And all these blessings will come upon you and overtake you, if you will obey the voice of the LORD your God. Jesus said in John 10:10 I have come that you might have life and life more abundantly. Luke 1:45 Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord's word to her will be fulfilled." Study Deuteronomy 28:1-29 Guard your heart The wellspring of life Proverbs 4:20-27 My son, pay attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not lose sight of them; keep them within your heart. For they are life to those who find them, and health to the whole body. Guard your heart with all diligence, for from it flow springs of life. Put away deception from your mouth; keep your lips from perverse speech. Let your eyes look forward; fix your gaze straight ahead. Make a level path for your feet, and all your ways will be sure. Do not swerve to the right or to the left; turn your feet away from evil. Jude 1:20-25 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen. Malachi 3:15-16-17 NLT Proverbs 4:10-19 Romans 12:1-2 Ephesians 5:15-21
