Daily Devotional

Other Bible versions say that God wants to give you a hope and a future. God wants to give you a life of prosperity, and not to harm you. God wants to amaze you in ways you never thought imaginable.

Take Joseph, for example, who went from being thrown into a pit to being a ruler who dispersed food in times of famine. Or Paul, who was stuck in prison — God sent an earthquake to release him so that he could continue doing His work. God continues to do amazing things today, and He wants to do amazing things in your life.

The Bible says that when you draw closer to God, He will draw closer to you. Despite the circumstance, despite where you are right now in your life, remember that God created you to give you a hope, a future and a life of abundance. But He wants you to stand firm on His Word and on His promises. He wants to build your faith in Him — not in the worlds mechanisms of creating prosperity. And remember, if God cannot trust you with the little, He will not trust you with the greater things in life.

Remember that the measure that you put into the Kingdom of God will be measured back unto you. If you do not have a passion for the Kingdom of God; if you are going to church just to sign the attendance register, God will not bless you to the extent that He had planned for you. He wants your heart 100% turned to Him. He must be your everything.

"Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you." My friend, put the kingdom of God first in your life — sow time, finances and your life into moving the kingdom of God forward. And God will bless you. I have seen it time and time again.

God wants you to be a stream through whom His blessings flow; He wants to prosper you, He wants to do great things in your life.
