Blessing Blockers
1. one of the most common is separation between you and another Christian. Example Mark 11:22- 23 but it is the scriptures right after it that define what to do to have the blessing. Look at 24 & 25. If not done there is your blessing blocker.
2. examine yourself to see if your are in the faith. The word talks about judging yourself. example II Cor 13.5a. Judge yourself, I Cor 11:31. This is not salvation but if you have gone against the law of Love which is #1 to the Father as stated by Jesus himself that all the commandments were in the first two commandments. Love God with all your heart, soul your strength and all that is within you and love your neighbor as yourself. You must love yourself too. We all must walk carefully in this.
3. Obedience (Romans 14.22 Isa. 1:19
4. Not honoring parents Mark 12:30-31 Ephesians 6
5. Hate a destructive force(self-pity) vs. Love the creative force.
6. condemnation Jn. 3:17 rom. 1:8
7. Prejudice 1john 2:9-12
8. Doubt and unbelief anxiety, opposite of trust
prayer of doubt negates prayer of faith James 5:15 God calls it an evil heart of unbelief Hebrews 3:12
Hebrews 11:6 talks about faith that it is the only way to please God.
9. Unrepeated sin which is so easy to get remedied with 1john 1:9
10. Praying correctly-there is a divine order
A. enter into his gates with thanks giving and into his courts with praise Psalms 100:4 also in the Lord's prayer we see Jesus using this same example. So, being thankful first and praising God is first.
B. Then present you requests using the word of God to remind God of what his word says about the situation. Know your WORD! Psalms 119:11 Psalms 119:5 opposite not using God's word Proverbs 28:9.
11. Robbing God of Tithes as in Mal. 3:8-10 This is lack of faith and trust in the father God and disobedience to the word. The Word says God is not mocked whatsoever you so you are going to reap.
12. conditions= God will help you out of them but it takes faith and patience. The power twins for answered prayer. You must spend time in the word and in prayer to get the wisdom of God on it.
In order to hear from God it will take time. Make time for God during your day to get his wisdom on the subject if you need it as for confirmation
