The Bank of Heaven

UV 3729/10000 The Bank of Heaven The Lord will open for you His good treasure house, the heavens, to give rain to your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hand; and you will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow. Deuteronomy 28 v 12 If we do not swerve to the left or to the right but are steadfast in serving the Lord, not turn aside from any of His words, His commands, He will bless us with treasure from above. He will give us treasures out of darkness, secret treasures of which we know nothing. He will send us showers of blessing aplenty in due season, both the early rain and the latter rain. He will bless all the work of our hand. The words “ good treasure house” implies that there is a kind of Bank of Heaven in which all of us have accounts into which the Lord credits what we need as well as the abundance He wants to bless us to reward us with for our diligence, faithfulness, obedience and dedication. As the word promises, there is much profit in labour. There is much more blessing in God-blessed labour. We will not labour in vain but for gain in every sense of the word. The keys or codes we need to open our bank vault in heaven is already placed in our hands- diligence, dedication, devotion, discipline, determination. These are the good treasures that the thief cannot steal, the robber rob, the moth or rust cannot destroy. There is a season or particular time period of our lives when the Lord releases the showers of blessing upon us as the land rec We will not be indebted to foreignors but we will lend to others. He will send foreignors to serve us, even their leaders. He establishes the work of our hands so that it meets our needs. We will become signboards to point others to the Lord. These blessings and promises are conditional to our diligent study of the word, our careful listening to His voice, our careful obedience of His directions, counsel, commandments and will. In all our ways, we must lean on Him, listen intently to His voice, the whispers, promptings and nudging of the Holy Spirit. God is infinite in love, wisdom, power, grace. God plus us is also infinite in love, wisdom, power, grace. We are leaders of humanity by divine appointment and enablement or anointing. We will be above and not beneath. We are the TOP people not in terms of power, wealth, position but in terms of TOP- The Tabernacle of Peace. Since God, the Eternal One, the Almighty is tabernacle in us, we have peace. Peace or the holistic Shalom is the goal; the presence of God in us ensures peace. Prosperity is only a concomitant, an accompanying factor, a side dish. Happiness is the dessert.
