HOW TO ATTRACT THE BLESSING
Psalm 1:1-3 ESV - Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of
sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates
day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does
not wither. In all that he does, he prospers.
Whatever it takes to get blessed do it at all costs and whatever it takes to get cursed do not do it at all
costs. Every child of God should position himself/herself at a place where they can attract God’s
blessings. How you live determines what you attract into your environment.
{Proverbs 16:7} - A peaceful man attracts peace into his environment.
{Matthew 26:52} - A violent man attracts violence into his environment.
{Luke 6:38} - A giver attracts givers into his environment.
{Genesis 31:7} - A deceiver attracts deceivers into his environment
Whatever you would love to see and to experience in your life, do it to others.
Matthew 7:12- Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law
and the Prophets.
