Wisdom Matters

Why does God want to bless our lives?


Listen Later

God wants to bless your life with abundance so that you can then be a blessing to others. God’s blessing can make a nation great. God's blessing can make a person’s character great. Those who have been strengthened by God’s blessings can be used as a conduit of his blessings to others.


Seeing ourselves as others see us is easy. Thinking greatness belongs to a select few is normal. However, according to God, greatness belongs to anyone he chooses to make great. 


We are blessed by God so that we can be a blessing to others. Our blessings have an eternal purpose. Our prosperity has eternal value. We simply need to understand that our greatness is the work of God in and through our lives.


God wants you to live a blessed life. God wants to make your character—your name—great. Consider the impact that great leaders have had in this world. Now consider the impact great Christians have made through their words, actions, and influence.


God wants to bless you and make your name great. God wants to bless our nation so that we can be a blessing to others. God is able to bless our lives so that we can be a blessing to those around us.


How have you come to define greatness? Whose influence has impacted your name, your character? God wants to make his children great so that they can help others understand how to live blessed lives as well.


Living with wisdom is a path to God’s blessings. And that path is a path to God’s greatness.
