Scripture of the Day - November 12, 2012

Leviticus 26:3  If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;
4  Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.

There is a season for everything, even the blessings of God. For new growth to take place something must die. Jesus explains this in John 12:24  Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.
If we want the blessings of the Lord We must be willing to allow the Spirit to lead us. The Spirit can't lead us if we are full of self will.
We must be willing to die to self will and follow after HIM. Self will leads to the barren land where you abide alone and nothing grows. Self will hinders the blessings of God. It's not till you release your self will that God can work with you and you can then bring forth fruit.
Oh how precious are the commands of God...keep them and do them, for they lead us to the blessings.
