TOO BLESSED TO FAIL

Title: TOO BLESSED TO FAIL

By Rev. Samuel Arimoro

Main Text: Psalm 1:3 
Supporting Texts: Deuteronomy 28:1-13, Philippians 4:19, Ephesians 1:3

INTRODUCTION 
As believers, we are not just blessed, but we are too blessed to fail. Our position in Christ has placed us in a realm of blessings that cannot be revoked or diminished. No matter the challenges we face, God's blessing upon us guarantees that we will rise above adversity and succeed. Today, we will explore how God's blessing empowers us to live a life that is marked by success, fruitfulness, and victory, regardless of the obstacles we encounter.

1. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE BLESSED?

a) Walking in God's Favour (Deuteronomy 28:1-2)
Being blessed means walking in the favour of God. It means being aligned with God's will and purposes for your life, and as a result, you experience His goodness and favour. The blessing of God is more than just material wealth; it is a state of divine favour and protection that covers every aspect of your life.

b) Positioned for Success (Psalm 1:3) 
The Bible compares a blessed person to a tree planted by the rivers of water, which brings forth fruit in its season. A tree planted by a river has a constant supply of nourishment, ensuring that it is always fruitful. Likewise, those who are blessed by God are positioned for success. They are planted in environments where they can thrive, grow, and bear fruit.

2. THE BLESSING OF GOD EMPOWERS YOU TO OVERCOME FAILURE

a) The Blessing Breaks Every Curse (Galatians 3:13-14)
Through Christ, we have been redeemed from every curse, including the curse of failure. The blessing of God upon our lives ensures that even when we face setbacks, we will not be destroyed by them. God’s blessing gives us the resilience to bounce back from failures and turn every obstacle into an opportunity for growth.

b) The Blessing Provides Divine Wisdom (James 1:5) 
When you are blessed, you have access to divine wisdom. This wisdom enables you to make decisions that lead to success and prevent failure. With God's wisdom, you are empowered to navigate through challenges with insight and understanding, making choices that align with His will.

3. BLESSED TO BE A BLESSING

a) Blessed to Prosper in Every Area (Deuteronomy 28:11) 
God's blessing is holistic—it covers every area of your life. Financially, emotionally, physically, and spiritually, you are blessed to prosper. The blessing of God ensures that every part of your life reflects His goodness and favour.

b) Blessed to Bless Others (Genesis 12:2-3) 
The blessing of God is not just for personal gain; it is meant to overflow into the lives of others. When you are too blessed to fail, you become a channel of blessing to those around you. Your success is a testimony of God's faithfulness and inspires others to trust in His provision.

4. LIVING IN THE REALITY OF YOUR BLESSING

a) Faith in God's Promises (Philippians 4:19)
Living in the reality of your blessing requires faith in God's promises. God has promised to supply all your needs according to His riches in glory. When you believe and walk in this promise, you live with confidence, knowing that you are too blessed to fail.

b) Obedience Unlocks the Fullness of Blessing (Deuteronomy 28:1)
Obedience is the key to unlocking the fullness of God's blessing. When we obey God and follow His commands, we position ourselves to receive the blessings He has promised. Disobedience, on the other hand, can hinder the flow of God’s blessings in our lives. Therefore, it is important to remain in alignment with His will.

CONCLUSION
You are too blessed to fail because the hand of God is upon your life. His blessing guarantees success, resilience, and fruitfulness. You may encounter challenges, but God's blessing will empower you to rise above them. As you walk in obedience, faith, and divine wisdom, you will experience the fullness of God's blessings, and you will be a testimony of His faithfulness. Remember, you are blessed to be a blessing, and God will continue to use you to impact the lives of others for His glory.
