He’ll get it to you; if He can get it through you

God will get his blessing to you; if He can get it through you:

There are lots of teaching, preaching and other materials circulating within today’s church about the blessings of Abram.  While it is Yahweh’s will to prosper and bless His people, many won’t walk in the realm of material blessing as Abram did due to their distorted view and purpose of being the recipient of such blessing.

Watch this !

Here’s the primary purpose of Abram’s blessing: Gen.12:2.  And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

The last six words of the above scripture are: and thou shalt be a blessing:  He ( God ) will get it / the blessing to you; if He can get it through you.  This is where the wheels fall of the chart or refuses to spin for many who are teaching / preaching and those who are expecting to be recipients of God’s blessing that was upon Abram.  The blessing / God’s empowerment upon one’s life serves to benefit every family that comes in contact with the person endowed by God (Gen.12:3).

A pure heart and the proper disseminating of God’ blessing by a leader will always bring honor to the name of the Lord; and has the ability to draw / attract even Kings and Queens that will come asking questions.

Watch this !

KJV:

1Kings.10:1.  And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the LORD, she came to prove him with hard questions.

 NLT:

1Kings.10:1.  When the queen of Sheba heard of Solomon's reputation, which brought honor to the name of the LORD, she came to test him with hard questions.

The Queen of Sheba not only saw all that she heard concerning King Solomon; but when she saw the affects of the blessing even upon Solomon’s servants, she fainted.
KJV:

1Kings.10: 4.  And when the queen of Sheba had seen all Solomon's wisdom, and the house that he had built,

: 5.  And the meat of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their apparel, and his cupbearers, and his ascent by which he went up unto the house of the LORD; there was no more spirit in her.

NLT:

1Kings.10: 4  When the queen of Sheba realized how wise Solomon was, and when she saw the palace he had built,

: 5.  she was breathless. She was also amazed at the food on his tables, the organization of his officials and their splendid clothing, the cup-bearers and their robes, and the burnt offerings Solomon made at the Temple of the LORD.

Whenever leaders ( Political / Religious) puts the interest of people that they’re leading ahead of their own; it catches God’s attention and causes Him to get involved in the process.  King Solomon is a prime example of this fact as he had a working knowledge of the same.

Watch this!

1Kings.3:7.  And now, O LORD my God, thou hast made thy servant king instead of David my father: and I am but a little child: I know not how to go out or come in.

: 8.  And thy servant is in the midst of thy people which thou hast chosen, a great people, that cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude.

: 9.  Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?

: 10.  And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.

: 11.  And God said unto him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies; but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern judgment;

: 12.  Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.

: 13.  And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches, and honour: so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee all thy days.


As modern day saints, we’re under a far better covenant (The New Testament) which was established upon the blood of Yeshua Messiah, and not the blood of bulls, sheep and goats as that of the Old Testament.  Yet the saints of the Old Testament / covenant walked in a much greater level of material blessing that the saint today.  Why is this ?  It’s because the Old Testament saints understood the principles of  “and thou shalt be a blessing”  and not as we do today in hoarding whatever we receive rather than seeking to be a blessing.

Many leaders, Political & Religious have failed God‘s test of being blessed, as they‘ve put their needs and concerns before that of the people.  Therefore they’re constantly in a begging / manipulating mode or trying to secure deals of provisions for themselves and families. 

God, blesses a man or a woman; so that they can in turn be a blessing to others.  People, if you’ve been faithfully walking with your leaders for a number of years, and you’re in lack of material substances whiles your leaders are in abundance; your leaders don’t understand the purpose of the blessing.

He’ll get it to you; if He can get it through you:
