Today’s Message: Handfuls on Purpose

Share

Today’s Scripture

“And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of the LORD your God.”
(Deuteronomy 28:2, ESV)

Handfuls on Purpose

Our God is a rewarder of those who seek Him! When you keep God first place and do your best to honor Him, Scripture says, “His blessings will chase you down and overtake you.” That means you will come into increase, promotion and good breaks that you didn’t necessarily deserve. That’s God rewarding you for walking in His ways.

We see this principle in the Old Testament with Ruth. She was out in the fields following behind the workers and gathering up the leftover wheat that they missed. She was trying to take care of her mother-in-law, Naomi, but they were barely surviving. One day, the owner of the fields told the workers to leave handfuls of wheat on purpose for Ruth. Ruth came into blessings that were simply dropped at her feet.

Every one of us can look back and see times where God has left us handfuls on purpose—something that we didn’t deserve or even ask for. We just stumbled into it. That’s a “handful on purpose.” I encourage you to always keep your expectancy up. Keep trusting God and obeying His voice because He is ready to bless you in unexpected ways today!

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You for Your goodness and faithfulness in my life. I trust You as my provider; You are the One who cares for me. I acknowledge You with my love and thank You for leaving me ‘handfuls on purpose’ today in Jesus’ name! Amen.”

  1. All religions are terror organisations. Even the same Christians have terrorised helpless people. Take for instance the Catholics who are well known for fondling little boys. Whilst the popularity of Catholics has dwindled in the western world the dull Africans continue worshiping this trash. The same religion used to colonize their mentality. The same religion used by pf to hoodwink you into national prayer whenever pf fails

    • When a hunter successfully uses a trap or a weapon to gain an advantage over a potential victim, that trap or weapon does not benefit the victim but will likely be valued by the hunter, who will likely want that trap or weapon to be copied in the future with slight modifications that might make it even better at giving the hunter an advantage over the intended prey. Likewise, religion isn’t perpetuated because of any value it might have for its victims. It’s perpetuated for the advantage it gives some humans over others and occasionally modified in ways that might increase the advantage it gives those who control it over those who are controlled BY it. Yes, it most certainly is a social parasite.?

  2. Belief systems have flourished because they give people hope – people who have nothing to offer society at large. The foolish are trapped in religion by the already “infected” who preach guilt and punishment and a way to escape this in some future life. This is emotional entrapment….
