THEME: PUT AWAY STRANGE GODS

TOPIC: BIBLICAL DEMAND FOR GOD’S BLESSING

TEXT: GENESIS 35:1-7

Every battle is preceded by a sound of trumpet. When God is about to do something special in the lives of people He calls them apart. It is my responsibility to prepare for God’s visitation. 2 chronicles 27:6

If God is calling for consecration He wants to do something. Genesis 16:16, 17:1. There was 33 years of broken fellowship and God had to call him to a life of consecration.

Many of us are just casual visitors to God. Our lives must be put right with God. The fact that demon bow before you or sicknesses are healed doesn’t mean your life is right with God.

REQUIREMENTS FOR GOD’S BLESSINGS. HOSEA 6:1

Four “R’s”

-RETURN -REVIVAL -RAISING UP -RAIN

RETURN: it is to go back to the place where you dedicated your life, the place of departure.

It is going back to God from back sliding. Deuteronomy 30:1-2. It is to return from exile. Return to the place of service. Psalm 100:2.

Our Return must be TOTAL. 2Chronicles 6:36-37

REVIVAL: Revival is God coming down. It starts with consecration. We need to live right to experience the move of God. God doesn’t come until the way is prepared for Him.

Return to the Lord paves way for revival.

RAISING UP: God Helps us rise.

RAIN: Rain is a blessings. The former rain comes at the time of planting. The latter shows double blessings. Open heaven is certain only to the pure. Jeremiah 4:3. Until there is a break up there can’t be a breakthrough. Malachi 1:6-12.
