Have you ever heard the saying that "everything is coming up roses". Sounds like a pipe dream in this shaky world, a world with such hurt, anger, disappointment.

There is no one that really seems to have any answers for the major problems humanity is facing.

What if there was an answer and somebody that could lead you to victory in the midst of chaos? Well there is! From the beginning of time God has a proven plan for every man. In Genesis 1:28 God's spoken word over His creation was that He would Bless them. That charge has never been rescinded. Religion has squashed it by adding its own opinions and ideals. There are those that are finding out that the gospel (good news) declares that the Blessings of God are to fall on those that walk uprightly. Everyone is welcome.

What does it mean to be Blessed? It means that the favor of God goes before you and works things out before you get there. It means that the fullness (full supply) of what you need for others and for yourself will be there. It means complete satisfaction, safety, freedom in the midst of this worlds system.

Sure you may say that is just a dream. Doesn't God know about all the problems we are facing? YUP! He is the only one that has the master plan for your deliverance right down to your very next step. My dependency then can only be on His ability not mine. In Hebrews 1:2-3 Jesus is the one that created the worlds and upholds all things with the word of His Power. You have nothing to loose and everything to gain by trusting Him.

Let's get started. If you have never made Jesus the Lord of your life do it now (read Romans 10:9-10). Say, "Jesus be the Lord of my Life. Come into my heart. I receive you as my Lord and savior." Jesus will be the biggest blessing in your life. Now are you willing to see Him bless your life as was His original intent?

Let me give you one small nugget: A pattern that repeats itself many times in the Word of God found in Deuteronomy 30:14 God has laid out and displayed what the blessings are and the curses, see (Deut 28). Now in that 14th verse God said that in 3 areas - the mouth, the mind and the heart - the Word (God's Promises) are to be loaded and the Word must NEVER leave those 3 areas. The 3 must remain in agreement no matter who or what comes against you. They could be loaded with evil and consequently produce evil and negative results.

So Let the weak say "I am strong", let the poor say "I am rich and abundantly supplied". Fill those 3 areas with the reservoir of Gods 7000+ promises. God said in the 15th verse I have set before you Life and Good, or death and evil. Then finally in verse 19 God strongly hints that YOU CHOOSE LIFE and you and your descendants will have LIFE - a good life on the Earth.
