[The LORD thy God shall bless thee...in all the works of thine hands (Deuteronomy 16:15)]
from Deuteronomy 16:15

The Lord made all that he did to prosper in his hand. —Gen. 39:3.

Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord; that walketh in his ways. For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee. —Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. —Be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall he added unto you.

As long as he sought the Lord, God made him to prosper. —Beware that thou forget not the Lord thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day: and thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth.

Is not the Lord your God with you? and hath he not given you rest on every side?

Peace. Rest. Success. Happiness. Well-being. Prosperity. Blessing. God’s presence with me.

Those all sound so wonderful to me right now!

So…will I trust? and obey? and do good? and fear God? and delight myself in Him? and seek His kingdom and righteousness first?

I read this last night before going to bed:

I would have you without carefulness. —I Cor. 7:32.

He careth for you. —The eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him.

O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing. —Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? —Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Wow! Can you believe that?!

I admit to struggling against unbelief at times. No, I don’t mean that I think the Scriptures are untrue.

I simply mean that at times I have a hard time accepting that God intends for me to apply these verses to certain circumstances in my life.

I want to believe enough to tell God what He already knows: My requests, my needs.
