Isaiah 48:17 (King James Version)Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.
What an Awesome God we serve. I want to talk to you about God's way of profiting in life. The word dividends means the following:
1. a sum of money paid regularly (typically quarterly) by a company to its shareholders out of its profits (or reserves).
• a payment divided among a number of people, e.g., members of acooperative or creditors of an insolvent estate.• an individuals share of a dividend.• ( dividends) a benefit from an action or policy.When we serve God with all of our heart, He releases unto us His dividends so that we will profit in life. These dividend come in different ways. The first and most precious dividend came when He released His son Jesus to die on the cross for all of our sins. This dividend profited us in every area of our life. We could go to the father openly and without the veil. Jesus bridged the gap between Man and God. He restored all the benefits of living a life to the fullest. WoW! what great dividends we received by simply accepting Jesus into our hearts. Next after Jesus returned to heaven, the bible states God released the Holy Spirit to help guide us into all the truths in life.
These dividends go on and on. Jesus said when our mind is stayed upon Him, His peace is released. He went on to say when our ways please Him our enemies our at peace with us.(Proverbs 16:17).
We gain profits in life when we listen and obey what God has said to do, He knows what the best way to accomplish the goal. He also leads us by the way of Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit leads us to the will of God for our life. It might be a feeling in your gut not to do go or say that. This is God's way of leading you and I in the way we should go.
Remember God's ways is the best way. He has our best interest at stake. When He instructs us to move, we move. Isaiah 1:19 If, we are willing and obedient we will eat the good of the Land.
God Bless,
