What Would You Sell Your Birthright For? Part [6] 06/29/2026 (Morning thought)

Deuteronomy 8:11 Beware that thou forget not the Lord thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day.

Again, The Lord tells us that wealth, and material blessings would be the result of obedience to His laws, but satan offers riches, and material blessings. The terms and conditions vary widely, but the offer is made, so that you have to choose which brand of blessing you prefer…. Deuteronomy 8:12 Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein; 13 And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied.

Deuteronomy 8:14 Then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the Lord thy God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage; 17 And thou say in thine heart, my power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth. 18 But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth you power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he swore unto thy fathers, as it is this day.

2nd Chronicles 1: 11 And God said to Solomon, because this was in thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honor, nor the life of thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king. 12 Wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honor, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the like.

Deuteronomy 15: 4 Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the Lord shall greatly bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!

 

What Would You Sell Your Birthright For? Part [5] 06/29/2026 (Evening thought)

Numbers 22:11 Behold, there is a people come out of Egypt that covers the face of the earth: come now, curse me them; peradventure I shall be able to overcome them, and drive them out.

In our day, there are persons who might have not a single qualification for a particular office and yet, he or she can get promoted to a position of trust, after bowing down in some form or another. Thus, great spiritual darkness has overspread the earth, and like Balaam, persons who have not a clue as to what they are doing, are given the reins of control. If persons are bidden to lie, some will lie, if some are bidden to steal, some will steal, and like Balaam, if some are bidden to curse, they would also curse.

It matters not what is the cost, once promotion will be secured, some folks will bow down, and sell their birthright in the process. Numbers 22:Come now therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people; for they are too mighty for me: peradventure I shall prevail, that we may smite them, and that I may drive them out of the land: for I know that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and he whom thou cursest is cursed.

Numbers 22:8 And he said unto them, Lodge here this night, and I will bring you word again, as the Lord shall speak unto me: and the princes of Moab abode with Balaam. 12 And God said unto Balaam, you shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people: for they are blessed. 15 And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honorable than they. 16 And they came to Balaam, and said to him, thus saith Balak the son of Zippor, let nothing, I pray thee hinder thee from coming unto me.

Numbers 22:17 For I will promote thee unto very great honor, and I will do whatsoever thou sayest unto me: come therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
