El Reino / The Kingdom

All of us women go through circumstances where we apparently feel that some people are unfair with us. All of us human beings are vulnerable to this. Perhaps there’s someone who betrays us, disappoints us, abuses us with words, or someone who constantly hurts us, which makes us feel let down and full of bitterness; this makes it hard to forgive.

But I want to tell you the first cause for which all God’s blessing for a woman can be lost is resentment. The second is when heart wounds are held on to. One says that one forgives but doesn’t forget (the reality is one hasn’t forgiven).

When a woman still has pain in her heart she cannot inherit these blessings, that’s why she must look after herself to not keep resentment. Her heart must be totally healed so that she can inherit each of God’s promises for her life. Eli lost the fruit because he didn’t protect his sons. Though he saw their faults he never disciplined them (1 Samuel 2:29). Sometimes one has a veil on one’s eyes and justifies the bad actions of a child. We must ask the Lord to impart sound judgement and that He’ll remove the veil so that we can have complete and balanced love. A love that reflects affection but that with it there will be correction and discipline, which must be exercised with love.

When there’s a spirit of overprotection, fruit is lost. In Eli’s case, although he had prophecies of blessing, all of them were invalidated and the blessing that should have rested on his house passed on to the life of Samuel. Many times, our parents or grandparents have allowed overprotection and this has brought curse to our lives. We must pray that God cancels out these arguments so that we can see great fruit in our life and ministry.

Through the prophet Joel the Lord said, “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions.” (Joel 2:28)

God’s dreams are reserved for His children in the end times. God wants  the dreams He gave His servants in the days of old to become our dreams.

We must understand that everything that God does is eternal, God himself called Abraham and gave him His dreams, He is the one calling us to give us those same dreams, the only thing that the Lord is waiting for is for men and women to rise, those that are willing to trust Him in the same way that Abraham and Sara did.

God has not changed His dream, He wants to make us fathers of multitudes. But in order for Abraham to conceive God’s dream, he had to resign to his land, to his family and the people that influenced him. And he went out wandering aimlessly, he was only trusting that God would guide him in the right direction.

Abraham’s faith led him to completely depend on God, and this pleased God and He blessed him by telling him that in him all the families of the Earth shall be blessed.

Having the dream of God means that everything that we do the Lord himself must receive all of the glory and all of the honor.

May this week be a glorious week, where the Lord gives you the breath of His Spirit and your life is filled with the presence of God, that your mind is renewed and your heart enlarged to receive God’s blessings.
