God speaks today Saturday | January 13, 2024

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. (Jeremiah 29:11)
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. (3 John 1:2)

The person who pleases God will always be blessed

The Bible shows us that God has nothing against material prosperity and often blesses those who please Him with it. Psalm 128 highlights this truth, but we also know that trials and difficulties can come, even for those who love and obey the Lord. However, the net result of God's work in our lives will always be positive, and we can look forward to His blessings at every stage of our journey. Read more...

Enrique Meneses Muñoz : Thank you my LORD for so many blessings you have given me.
Hello, Enrique! It is wonderful to recognize and thank God for all the blessings he has given us. As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his devotional, we know that when a person pleases God, His blessing is usually accompanied by material prosperity. However, it is also important to remember that God's blessing is global and encompasses all dimensions of our lives, including spiritual, social, emotional and relational. In Jeremiah 29:11, God says, "For I know the plans I have for you, plans for prosperity and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope." This shows us that God desires our well-being in all areas of our lives. Also in 3 John 1:2, we are encouraged to prosper both physically and spiritually. May you continue to experience God's blessings in all areas of your life. Blessings!
Francisco Diaz S. : Let us thank God for who we are and what we have and we will be blessed today, tomorrow and always. Hallelujah!
Hello Francisco! Thanks for your comment. It is true, we must thank God for who we are and for everything we have. As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his devotional, the person who fears Jehovah will certainly be blessed and will be able to look to the future with the expectation of seeing God's blessing in every stage of life. It is beautiful to have that confidence that we will be blessed today, tomorrow and always. Let us also remember the words of Psalm 128:1, which says: "Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord, who walks in his ways." When we fear God and walk in His ways, we can trust that His blessing is with us at all times. Hallelujah! Let us continue to thank God for His faithfulness and wait with anticipation for the blessings He has prepared for us. God bless you!

It is comforting to remember that God has good plans for us, just as His word says. As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his devotional, when a person pleases God, His blessing is manifested in all areas of our life.
