“BLESSED ARE YOU”
BY PASTOR YEMISI BAMGBOSE
DEUTERONOMY 28:1-3
Sacrifice will attract the attention of heaven.
The phrase ‘Blessed are you’ is in reference to an individual and not a group of people.
To us believers, blessings come by the way of the cross of Jesus Christ - 2 Corinthians 8:9.
To be blessed is to be favoured and assisted by God.
Blessings change your story.
A blessing is God commanding every force in heaven, on earth and underneath the earth to
assist an individual to succeed in life.
There are conditions required by anyone who will receive blessings from God.
There are general blessings that we enjoy and there are covenant/faith-based blessings that
are only for the children of God.
To be blessed means you have everything you need for the journey in life.
God does not want us to stumble our way through life without achieving the purpose for
which we are here for.
Everything you need is in His blessing to us.
He said to Moses that “I will make all my goodness go before you and declare the name of the
Lord, He show mercy to whom He will show mercy, and He will show compassion to whom He will
show compassion” - Exodus 33:19.
God deals with individuals, especially as it relates to His plans, purposes and promises.
With every blessing of God, comes a condition to be fulfilled by as many as are willing to
obey it.
Every child of God is designed to be blessed and be a blessing to others.
The purpose of every child of God is not money or position but, in touching lives for Jesus.
We are to make impact wherever we find ourselves. Impact is better than income.
Being a Blessing is not referring to making of money alone but God touching lives through
you.
We must be people of faith with our faith in the unfailing Word of God.
Our faith is in God that cannot lie, nor deny Himself, and whose promises are Yea and Amen.
1 Samuel 15:29.
We must always engage and honour the covenant practices written in the scriptures.
We must remember that a covenant we honour will be a covenant that will work for us.
When we are obedient to all His instructions and keep His words, then the benefits of those
instructions and the words we obey will work for us.
Christians are engrafted into the family of God by divine covenant.
It is our responsibility to search out those covenants and obey them for our own good.
The Word of God that we honour and obey will work for us.
We must know that the Word of God cannot fail - Isaiah 40:8.
Heaven and earth may pass away, but not a word out of His words will ever go unfulfilled.
When we honour God with our lives, and engage in covenant practices, we will be blessed.
God, the eternal Creator knows how to bless His own children if we follow His principles
Deuteronomy 8:18.
But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God, for it is He that giveth thee power to get wealth,
that He may establish His covenant which He sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.

The key word for the blessed is his or her ability to harken diligently to the voice of the Lord
his/her God.
The second is our observation to do all His commandments.
It is only then that the Lord will set us high above all nations of the earth.
How good are you at hearkening to the voice of God? Are you very selective at what you
hearken to or not?
Abraham hearkened to the voice of the Lord when he was told to leave his father and
mother to a land God will show him - Genesis 12:1-3.
As a result of hearkening to the voice of the Lord, God caused him to prosper greatly.
We too will prosper when we hearken to the voice of the Lord and do whatever He says.
Sacrificial giving is another cure for curses, proven by Psalm 126:1-5.
Your sacrifices will shut the mouth of lions and it will turn your captivity into liberation.
When you live sacrificially, you will live in liberty.
We must be people that offer sacrifices of praise to God if we are going to enjoy His
unending blessings. Psalm 50:23.
Psalm 20:3.
Every opportunity to offer sacrifices to God is an opportunity to break free from curses and
oppression.
Do not wait on your church to call for sacrifices before you make one. Create an opportunity
for your lifting and breakthrough today.
If you honour God, He will bless you beyond your wildest dreams.
Life is not about what to eat, wear, or possess but, about what you sacrifice.
Jesus sacrificed His life for our freedom and liberty and we too must live like our Father, a life
of sacrifice.
We can not afford to continue to pursue what unbelievers are pursuing. We must realise that
when we put God first in all life matters, our life will matter to Him - Matthew 6:25-28.
Jesus advised us not to take thought for our lives as life is more important than raiment.
When we put God first in all things, He will make our matter of utmost importance to Him
and thereby cause every element to work for our good.
Matthew 5:3-11.
Jesus listed certain categories of blessed people.
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are they which hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled.
Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God.
Blessed are the peace makers, for they shall be called the children of God.
Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness sake, for theirs is the kingdom
of heaven.
Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of
evil against you falsely, for my sake, rejoice, and be exceeding glad, for great is your
reward in heaven, for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
Above all, when we practice all what was listed above and obey them, then we shall be
blessed indeed.
Prayer: May the blessings of God continually be our portion in Jesus name, Amen.
Shalom!

2020 PROPHECIES BY THE GENERAL OVERSEER OF RCCG
WORLDWIDE INDIVIDUALS: This Year (2020) is going to be A YEAR OF SERIES OF JOYS
The reason is that it is going to be a Year of “Series of Victories”
Now by implications, it means that it will be a Year of “Series of Battles”. But you will WIN!
And that is why He asked me to tell you in advance that “The Battle is Not Yours”
GOD says: This new year, He will answer prayers.
INTERNATIONAL: This year unless you pray very hard, it is going to behave like a child that is
having convulsion; earthquakes and volcanoes that have been dormant for years will erupt, the
reason is due to SIN. SIN is becoming more rampant. There will also be change of governments all
over the world, some of the changes will be peaceful, and some will not.

A LESSON ON LYING A minister told his congregation, "Next week I plan to preach about the sin of lying. To
help you understand my sermon, I want you all to read Mark 17."
The following Sunday, as he prepared to deliver his sermon, the minister asked for a
show of hands. He wanted to know how many had read Mark 17. Every hand went up. The minister
smiled and said, "Mark has only sixteen chapters. I will now proceed with my sermon on the sin of
lying."
PROSPECTING FOR THE LORD On a sunny Sunday afternoon, two young church members were going door to door to invite
people to visit their services. When they knocked on one door, it was immediately clear the woman
who answered was not happy to see them.
She told them in no uncertain terms that she did not want to hear their message, and before they
could say anything more, she slammed the door in their faces.
To her surprise, however, the door did not close; in fact, it bounced back open. She tried again,
really putting her back into it, and slammed it again with the same result - the door bounced back
open.
Convinced these rude young people were sticking their foot in her door, she reared back to give it a
slam that would teach them a lesson. Just then, one of them said quietly: "Ma'am, before you do that
again, you really need to move your cat."

HYMN 1
O LORD MY GOD
O Lord my God! When I in awesome
wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy hands hath
made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder
Thy pow’r thro’ out, the universe dis-
played.
Chorus
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God to Thee;
How great Thou art! How great Thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God to Thee;
How great Thou art! How great Thou art!
When through the woods And Forest
glades I wander,
And hear the birds Sing sweetly in the
trees;
When I look down, from lofty mountain
grandeur
And hear the brook, and feel the gentle
breeze;
And when I think that God, His Son not
sparing
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;
That on the cross, my burden gladly
bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin.
When Christ shall come, with shout of
acclamation,
And take me home, what joy shall fill my
heart!
Then I shall bow, In humble adoration
And there proclaim, My God, how great
Thou art!
HYMN 2
HOLY, HOLY, HOLY!
Holy, Holy, Holy!
Lord God Almighty
Early in the morning our song shall rise to
Thee;
Holy, Holy, Holy, merciful and mighty!
God in Three Persons, blessed, Trinity!
Holy, Holy, Holy!
All the saints adore Thee
Casting down their golden crowns around the
glassy sea
Cherubim and seraphim falling down before
Thee,
Which wert and art, and evermore shall be.
Holy, Holy, Holy!
Though-the darkness hide Thee,
Though the eye of sinful man
Thy glory may not see
Only Thou art holy;
There is none beside Thee
Perfect in power, in love, and purity
Holy, Holy, Holy!
Lord God Almighty!
All thy works shall praise Thee
Thy name, in earth and sky, and sea
Holy, Holy, Holy, merciful and mighty,
God in Three Persons, blessed, Trinity.

HYMN 4
BLESSED ASSURANCE
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine
Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.
Chorus
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long;
This is my story, this is my song;
Praising my Saviour, all the day long.
Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rapture now burst on my sight,
Angels descending, bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.
Perfect submission, all is at rest
I in my Saviour am happy and blest,
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Fill’d with His goodness, lost in His love.
HYMN 3
IMMORTAL INVISIBLE, GOD
ONLY WISE
Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
In light inaccessible hid from our eyes
Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of
days,
Almighty, victorious, Thy great name we
praise.
Unresting, unhasting and silent as light,
Nor wanting, nor wasting, Thou rulest in
might!
Thy justice like mountains high soaring
above,
Thy clouds which are fountains of goodness
and love.
To all life Thou givest to both great and
small;
In all life Thou livest, the true life of all;
We blossom and flourish as leaves on the
tree,
And wither and perish-but nought changeth
Thee.
Great Father of Glory, pure Father of Light,
Thine angels adore Thee, all veiling their
sight;
All laud we would render; O helps us to see;
‘Tis only the splendour of light hideth Thee.
