How to Get Blessed by God.
By Leon Kaoma.
We are now living in a fast world. We have instant messages, instant love, instant money. Our generation lacks patience. Look at the number of young girls and boys indulging in premature s*x. The church today is full of hypocrites. What is happening? It's like having values in this generation is something peculiar. We only live for today, disregarding our future plans.
The individual who is patient and thinks of 3 years from now, that individual will win. The individual who focuses on her long term objectives will prevail. The individual who is capable of thanking God for the little she has will win.
Time tells what we really value in life. God excepts us to plan for our lives but today we now have individuals who pray for blessings when they have no visible plan for their lives. God cannot give you something that you cannot manage. God cannot give you a new job when you are unfaithful at your current one. God blesses an orderly life, a life that has a plan and is organized.
"Is there anyone here who, planning to build a new house, doesn't first sit down and figure the cost so you'll know if you can complete it? If you only get the foundation laid and then run out of money, you're going to look pretty foolish. Everyone passing by will poke fun at you:"He started something he couldn't finish?
--Luke 14;28-30, MSG
