You and me, we have been blessed in some amazing ways. We live in a country with great freedoms. We have material wealth and financial resources that are unheard of in other countries.
As we hold this wealth, then, we must ask the next question:
“Why has God so blessed His people in America?”
Again, the Word gives a clear answer:
“God be merciful to us and bless us and cause Your face to shine upon us so that Your way may be known on earth and Your salvation among all nations” (Psalm 67:1-2).
God’s principle that His people are blessed to be a blessing is established in the covenant He made with Abraham ).
— Neal Pirolo
Pirolo makes the point that God has blessed you and me in so many ways for one reason – that we would now bless other people by making Him known throughout the other nations on earth – telling them about His great salvation. Are we using the wealth and resources and freedoms that God gave to us on ourselves?
Or Are we using them in a way that pleases Him – using the blessings He has given us to impact the nations for Christ?
