"Showers of Blessing" "And I will make them and the places
round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in His
season; there shall be showers of blessing. Ezekiel 34: 26
Winter is almost
over and Spring is in the air. The earth drinks in the rain and brings new life
into the dry hardened ground. It is time to rework the land and prepare it for
planting and growing so that a great harvest will come.
Like the land, sometimes our lives and hearts become hardened by
troubles, disappointments and trials and we need God's showers of refreshment,
revival, and blessing in our lives. Like the beautiful hymn, "There Shall Be
Showers of Blessing' , says, to receive those blessings we have to confess our
sins and call out to the Lord for an outpouring of His mercy and grace. "If my
people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my
face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will
forgive their sin and will heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14 If we do this,
then we will be ready to receive God's "showers of blessing" in our lives and
become the fruitbearers our Lord wants us to be.
There are some great opportunities coming up that will refresh and
bless your lives in the next few months.
