Locating your Hidden Blessings.

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ” (Ephesians 1:3 KJV)

The blessings you have been seeking from God are concealed within the spiritual realm. This realm is unseen to the naked eye but can be perceived through the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

The Bible says, “Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear” (Hebrews 11:3).

As stated in John 4:24, God is a Spirit, and as revealed in John 1:14, He manifested in the flesh as the Lord Jesus Christ. Hence, it is not unexpected that all blessings from God originate in the spiritual realm before materializing in the physical world.

Satan and his agents, known as demonic spirits, are all housed within the spiritual realm with the singular purpose of creating obstacles to the blessings that God has bestowed upon you from reaching you.

An illustration of Satan’s efforts to impede divine blessings in the spiritual realm can be observed in Daniel 10:13. When Daniel engaged in fasting and prayer to God, an angel was dispatched to him but became entangled in combat within the spiritual realm with one of Satan’s agents, referred to as the prince of Persia.

Many of God’s children pray and often wonder why their prayers are not answered. Often there is a blockage in the spirit realm by Satan and his agents to stop the blessings of God that has been released toward His children.

Many Christians who are faithful to God engage in prayer and frequently question the reasons behind unanswered prayers. It is common for obstacles to arise in the spiritual realm, orchestrated by Satan and his followers, in an attempt to hinder the blessings that God has bestowed upon his believers.

Some people prematurely abandon their prayers due to this interference. It is essential to possess persistence and spiritual fortitude when confronting these spiritual battles, for Satan will vehemently oppose any believer who is resolute in seeking communion with God in Heaven.

Currently, God continues to seek individuals who possess the qualities of ‘Daniel’ and ‘Esther’. God is in search of those who are prepared to confront the adversary without growing weary, particularly in a society where many find it challenging to be patient and dedicated to Gods in prayer.

This generation resides in a technologically advanced world where instant gratification is expected in all facets of life. The prevalence of social media, smartphones, fast food establishments, and self-service machines has led to a culture where waiting on divine guidance is perceived as time wasting. While desiring the blessings outlined in scripture, some people lack the expectation and perseverance required to adhere to the principles outlined in the Bible.

Many want God to enter their world but are not willing to enter God’s which is written in the Bible. Satan knows this so he waits in the spirit realm (the unseen world) to confiscate the blessings that God has released for you holding them hostage until you press in often with fasting and prayer before you get that breakthrough.

May the Lord strengthen you to fight the good fight of faith, for the battle is not yours but the Lord’s. God is always looking for a man or woman who will say, here I am Lord I will be a vessel. I will yield to your Holy Spirit, I will do things the Biblical way without taking shortcuts. I will be a channel that you can use to touch the nations. Are you that person? That’s why God said,

“come out from amongst them and be ye separate, said the lord, touch not the unclean thing and I will receive you” (2 Corinthians 6:17)

God’s hands are stretched out yearning for you to enter that place of discovery. A place where His hidden blessings can be located, a place where carnality cannot enter. A place where consecration, sanctification and holiness are a requirement. That’s why the Bible says,“without holiness, no man can see the Lord”.

I pray, that the zeal of God will enter you by the power of the Holy Spirit. May the hunger of the Lord birth a new passion ignite a fire within you and revive you. May you become the vessel that sparks a change in your family, community, church and throughout the nations.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, rekindle and stir the rivers of living water hidden inside your people to bring a hunger for you, to seek and search after the hidden treasures that you have released for them in the spirit realm.

Declaration

I declare that I will pursue God until He answers me. I will not give up or give in to any schemes of Satan. I will be victorious, I will overcome and recover all the blessings given to me by my Heavenly Father, through the power of God within me in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen!
