Proverbs 1:29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord: 30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. 31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
Therefore, when we follow the same line of reasoning as it pertains to God’s blessings, we would discover that in every instance, the problem is never with The Giver, but with the receiver, and what he or she chooses to do with the blessing. With many Christians, the attitude displayed might cause God to put blessings on hold for the time being, lest folks vaunt themselves and become puffed up with pride.
The issue occurs so often, in both sacred, and secular history that in some instances it may not be safe for God to bless certain individuals. The reason for this is that more harm than good can be the result if the blessing is turned on its head or made to serve purposes other than what The Lord had originally intended. Now, it is true that God does not think and act as we do, for there is nothing such as the perfect man, or woman without their own set of issues.
We have all come short of the glory of God, and thus, the predicament of The Lord deciding to bless a faulty person whom He knows will pervert the blessing, often occurs. On the flipside of this predicament is the prospect of not getting anything done, for if He were to withhold blessing us, until He is sure we can handle it, that day may never come. Therefore, in some instances, The Lord goes ahead and blesses persons, so that at the very least, some level of good may be accomplished.
Proverbs 1:27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. 28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
