Posted by Jonathan Merigala In Matthew chapter 14, we see the three steps to becoming a blessing to others:
- Jesus took the loaves and fish;
- He blessed; and
- He broke them.
Then the multitude was fed.
This is how the Lord wants you to be a blessing.
- You have to give Him everything fast.
- Then he will bless you with the power of the Holy Spirit.
- Then he will break you through many trials, frustrations, disappointed hopes, failures, sicknesses, betrayals to humble you and reduce you to nothing in the eyes of men.
Then, he will bless others through you.
The Bible says that Jesus was first crushed and then the Father’s work prospered in His hand. Jesus allowed His human self-will to be broken in the different situations in His life. Only then was He able to offer himself.
It for this purpose that the Spirit strengthened Him.
It is only as you allow the Holy Spirit to break the strength of your own will that you will become spiritual.
Personal Reflection:
How must our own will be crucified?
