Workers.(4) Honoring your

parents. (5) Obeying God’s

Words.

I. WORSHIPING GOD“Worship the LORD your God, and his

blessing will be on your food and water. I

will take away sickness from among you,

and none will miscarry or be barren in

your land. I will give you a full life span.”

(Cuotv I^yipv 23:25-26 – Exodus 23:25-26)

II. TITHING TO GOD Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may

be food in my house says the Lord Almighty. Test me in

this,” says the LORD Almighty, “and see if I will not throw

open the Floodgates of heaven and pour out so much

blessing that you will not have room enough for it. “I will

prevent pests from devouring your crops, and the vines

in your fields will not cast their fruit,” says the LORD

Almighty.”

(Maa^laa^ki 3:10-11 – Malachi 3:10 -11)

III. SUPPORTING GOD’S WORKERS

The best of all the first fruits and of

all your special gifts will belong to the

priests. You are to give them the first

portion of your ground meal so that a

blessing may rest on your household.”

(E^saa^ken 44:30 - Ezekiel 44:30)

IV. HONORING YOUR PARENTS

“Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you.” (Exodus 20:12).

V. OBEYING GODBlessed are all who fear the LORD,

who walk in his ways. You will eat

the fruit of your labor; blessings and

prosperity will be yours. Your wife

will be like a fruitful Vine within

your house; your sons will be like

Olive Shoots around your table.

(Singx Nzung 128:1-3 – Psalms 128:1-3)

Thus is the man blessed who fears the

LORD. May the LORD bless you from

Zion all the days of your life; may you

see the prosperity of Jerusalem, and

may you live to see your children’s

children. Peace be upon Israel.

(Psalms 128:4-6 –Singx Nzung 128:4-6)

CONCLUSION1. The LORD will send a

blessing on your barns and on Everything you put your

hand to. The LORD your God will bless you in the land

he is giving you.” (Deuteronomy 28:8).

2.The blessing of the LORD brings wealth, and he

adds no trouble to it.”(Proverbs 10:22).

3. “I am setting before you today a blessing

and a curse—the blessing if you obey the commands of the LORD your

God that I am giving you today; the curse

if you disobey the commands of the LORD your God

and turn from the way that I command you today by following other gods, which you have not known.” (Deuteronomy 11:26-28).
