 Shalom,

Two of my favorite verses are found in today's Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan! The first is from Proverbs 11:24-25:

24 There are those who [generously] scatter abroad, and yet increase more; there are those who withhold more than is fitting or what is justly due, but it results only in want. 25 The liberal person shall be enriched, and he who waters shall himself be watered.

I LOVE how the Word of God goes against mere natural thinking! We serve a BIG GOD Who loves to bless His children and show off to the world! It doesn't make natural sense that someone could give out of their need and end up blessed beyond reason while some who are very well off, but stingy, can end up with nothing! It makes PERFECT GOD SENSE, though! All of Proverbs 11 goes back and forth concerning the BLESSING of doing things God's way and the failure that comes with rebellion against God and His Word! Revelation 18 tells what is ahead for those who have done, and continue to do, wickedly! The RIGHTEOUS will ALWAYS come out on top and be BLESSED! The evil, rebellious and wicked will NOT have it so good! We are already seeing GOD expose the evil wickedness that tried to steal from God's people and GOD has said, "ENOUGH"! The Word of God is VERY CLEAR on the BLESSING of the RIGHTEOUS who stand on God's Word and FOR Godly principles, and the 'reward' of the wicked and their wickedness! It is NOT pretty! !Then we have THIS in Zechariah 4:6 that shows that our GOD is NOT bound to this natural realm, but operates in the SUPERNATURAL realm! ALWAYS to BLESS us! 

6 Then he said to me, This [addition of the bowl to the candlestick, causing it to yield a ceaseless supply of oil from the olive trees] is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit [of Whom the oil is a symbol], says the Lord of hosts

AMEN! GOD is NEVER limited by the restictions of the world! HE is GOD ALMIGHTY and NO ONE shall TOUCH Him! Amen! Here is Hillsong with "":

Shalom in Him!
