Play your Part

Tuesday 13 June
READ: Isa. 1: 19 -20
MORE LESSON: Mal. 3:10-11

The Bible is filled with the promises of God for every area of the believer's life. There are promises for divine health, prosperity, wealth, longevity, fruitfulness etc. Whatever it is that you need, be rest assured that it has already been provided by God even before you knew to ask for them. However, it is important in receiving the promises of God to know that there is always a part for you to play. The reason God's promises elude many is that they seem to think that the promises are automatic; so they do not seek to know the part they are to play in activating the promises for their life.
Deut 8:18 says, But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day. This means that God has promised to give you the power to get wealth as long as you are committed to remembering Him with the wealth. You have a part to play in getting the power to make wealth. Your own part is to use your resources for God and His Kingdom.
The promises of God always leave you with a part to play. Exo. 15:26 says, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee. Divine health has been promised by God but your own part must be played. Your part is to obey every of God's commands in His Word. Disobeying God's command is sin; so your part in walking in divine health is to stay out of sin. Sin always opens the door for sickness. Obedience to God's Word qualifies you to obtain the promise of divine health.
Mal 3:10-11 says, Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts. If you want to live in financial open heaven where no devourer will be allowed to touch your resources; your part is to pay your tithes.
Receive the grace to play your part in obtaining the promises of God. God is forever faithful to His promises, we too must be willing and obedient to Him so that His promises to us may run to fulfilment.
