Every product has a specific function and each model is an improved ,enhanced version of the previous product.
If thats the story of the man made products,how much more would God the Creator take care to assign us functions and make us better than our predecessors.Abraham,Jacob,Joseph ,David and Solomon all were called out of their comfort zones and given a promise of blessings.
But between the time God gave them seeds of a vision and they enjoyed the fruits of the vision.There was a phase of transformation/change.
God has a plan and a purpose for each of us.HE watches every move so intently that HE never sleeps or slumbers.HE guards us and nourishes us so that we may become strong and fruitful.
For a tree to bear fruit the roots need to be strong.Young roots of faith would be strong only if we go deep through dry and parched sands till we reach the rocks through which steady waters flow.Heat,winds and rains may threaten the tiny leaves ,but the tiny leaves have a hidden potential to overcome these threats.
In times of difficulties and emptiness, the rock of our faith is JESUS and the steady streams of joy and happiness is from the Holy Spirit.
And when God blesses us there is restoration,health,abundance and we become a blessing to others too.
Claim the blessings of Abraham ,Joseph ,David and Solomon daily in your prayers..for we are called to reflect HIS glory and riches .
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
—Galatians 5:22-23
Abide in me as I abide in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in me. I am the vine, you are the branches. Those who abide in me and I in them bear much fruit, because apart from me you can do nothing.
If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask for whatever you wish,
and it will be done for you. If you keep my commandments,
you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my
Father's commandments and abide in his love.
-John 15:4-5,7,10
"Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store... And the LORD shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers to give thee.
The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow."
-Deuteronomy 28:5, 11-12
