GOD’S BLESSINGS ARE FOR ALL

SCRIPTURE READING - 📖 Matthew 5:44-45

“But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you, that you may be sons of your Father in Heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.”

Additional Verses

📖 Genesis 19:1-26; Matthew 5:1-48

God’s blessings are not at all limited to a particular class of people. No one is too good or too bad to receive God’s blessings. The best blessing God has given to everyone is eternal life through His only Son Jesus Christ. For you to receive this special gift you must believe in His Son Jesus Christ according to John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” Christ did not come to suffer and die for the righteous, but it was for the sinner that He died. Look at how God blesses us with the rain and sunshine. Both the believer and the unbeliever receive the same measure. The sun shines for both the wicked and the believers. Matthew 5:45b says, “For He makes his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.” Our Father in Heaven is just perfect. As a child of God you must also desire to be of the same mind as that of the LORD Jesus Christ. You must love your neighbor irrespective of whether he is a believer or not because you were all created in the image of God. Remember that you were also once an unbeliever and it is only through God’s love that you are now a child of God. It is now your responsibility to give the light of Christ to all those around you who are still in darkness. Matthew 5:16 says, “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” When you do this, your name will so shine in the presence of your Father in Heaven. Remember, God has made you an overcomer through the death and resurrection of His Son Jesus Christ. So keep on winning souls to Christ Jesus as this is your main purpose here in this world. Alleluia!

Prayer

Thank You Father for this important teaching which shows me that You pour out Your blessings for every one of us. Help me not to slacken in my prayer life and also to pass on Your Light to all those around me. In Jesus Christ’s name I pray, Amen.
