“The Real You” series – Week 8: You Are Blessed!

Have you bought into the lie that you must jump through a certain number of hoops before God will bless you? My friends and I believed wrong in this area for a long time, but then we found the truth!

Six of us had a conversation regarding this subject and I’m so happy this video is now available for others to view. Here are the questions we answered:

– Why are you blessed?
– What do you have to do to qualify yourself for God’s blessing?
– Are you and I living under the old covenant or the new covenant?
– What about tithing? Is it under the old covenant or the new covenant?
– Should there be any fear attached to your giving?
– Will you be cursed if you don’t tithe?
– Will you be as blessed if you don’t tithe?
– Is being generous part of your identity?
– What does giving under the new covenant of God’s grace look like?

Here’s that link I mentioned in the video of my “Jesus In The Driver’s Seat” page:

This material obviously struck a nerve because we have received a huge amount of comments/testimonies from others after watching this video. Here are some of them:

Here are some of the verses we used during our conversation:

“I have given them the glory you gave Me so they may be one as we are one. 23 I am in them and you are in me. May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and you love them as much as you love me” – John 17:22-23 NLT

1 John 4:16 & 18 says, God is Love. Love NEVER brings fear, for fear is always related to punishment. But love’s perfection drives the fear of punishment far from our hearts. TPT

Galatians 3:10-13 (NLT)
10 But those who depend on the law to make them right with God are under his curse, for the Scriptures say, “Cursed is everyone who does not observe and obey all the commands that are written in God’s Book of the Law.” 11 So it is clear that no one can be made right with God by trying to keep the law. For the Scriptures say, “It is through faith that a righteous person has life.” 12 This way of faith is very different from the way of law, which says, “It is through obeying the law that a person has life.”
13 But Christ has rescued us from the curse pronounced by the law. When he was hung on the cross, he took upon himself the curse for our wrongdoing. For it is written in the Scriptures, “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”

Hebrews 8:13: “When God speaks of a new [covenant or agreement], He makes the first one obsolete (out of use). And what is obsolete (out of use and annulled because of age) is ripe for disappearance and to be dispensed with altogether.” AMP
