As I sat in the Presence, I saw God place a mark upon my heart. It was a shiny, golden mark. He said, “I’ve marked you to receive My blessings.”
I felt this truth settle upon me…but I felt a nagging within…a knowing…
I asked, “Then what is blocking me from advancing and receiving all these blessings?” I saw a spirit obstruct the view. That spirit existed right in front of me.
What is this?
I instantly knew it was a form of fear. Fear of man, fear of rejection, many different fears…all in one spirit.
“God rescue me from all fears, in Jesus’ name!”, I cried out.
Peace came and rested upon me immediately, and from that moment to this I’ve been changed.
Something has shifted. Even when confronted with some potentially stressful news, which used to set me off in a spiral of fear, I was completely cool, calm, and collected…and more than that…I was confident.
I have felt a confidence resting upon me that I haven’t previously known.
God marks His people. We know that. We are marked for heaven. But we are also marked for blessings. It would be impossible to become an adopted child of a King and not receive blessings abundant…right?
We are now God’s adopted children. We are made to be blessed.
Today, I encourage you to sit for a while. Close your eyes. Focus your heart upon God. Ask Him if you too are marked for blessings. Once you see, ask Him if anything is blocking you from receiving them in fullness. Thank Him for removing all the obstacles and then get ready…because the blessings are coming. We are designed to have more than enough…do you know why? So, we can share with others and draw them into the Kingdom, as well. God desires to provide for His creation. He longs to use us as vessels of blessings for others.
Are you ready to receive?
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely Your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Psalm 23:5-6
