Blessings for Obedience

Scriptures referenced: Deuteronomy 8, 11, 28:1-14

Heavenly Father, 

As I come before you this day, I enter into Your gates with thanksgiving and into Your courts with praise.  I give you all the glory, all the thanksgiving, all the honor, and I say GLORY HALLELUJAH to Your Name.

"Now You O Lord said it shall come to pass, if I diligently obey Your voice, to observe carefully all Your commandments which you have given me that You will set me high above all nations of the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon me and overtake me, because I have obeyed Your voice O God: 

I will be blessed in my town and in the country. I will be blessed with many children and productive fields. I will be blessed with fertile herds and flocks. I will be blessed with baskets overflowing with fruit, and with kneading bowls filled with bread. I will be blessed wherever I go, both coming in and going out. 

You promised to bless me in everything I do and that my storehouses will be filled. You have promised to bless me in the land You are giving to me.  You promised to send rain at the proper time from Your rich treasury in the heavens to bless all the work I do. Thank You Lord for allowing me to be a blessing to many nations, and not having to be a borrower. You said if I obey Your commands and walk in Your ways, You would establish me as one of Your chosen children. Then all the nations of the world will see that I belong to You, and they will stand in awe of Your awesome Glory.

Father, You said if I obey every command that You have given, I will be able to go in and occupy the land you are about to bless me with. You have promised me that I would enjoy a long life in the land the You swore to give to my ancestors and to me, their descendants; You promised a land flowing with milk and honey.  For the blessings You are about to give me is not like that of the world. No, it's a land of hills and valleys with plenty of rain, a land that You will help me to care for day after day throughout the year. I am so grateful that wherever I set me feet, the land will be mine.  It doesn't matter if it's north, south, east, or west, You have promised this land to me.

You said if I obeyed all the commands You have given me, and love You with all my heart , my soul, and worship You, then You will send the rains in their proper seasons so my harvest will be plentiful and I will never go hungry. Oh Lord help me to listen and obey Your commands so that I will be the head and not the tail, and I will always have the upper hand. Lord I promise never to turn away from any of the commands that You are giving to me, and never to follow after other gods or worship them. I will not to allow my heart to be turned away from You and worship other gods. For Lord I don't want Your  anger to burn against me. Nor do I want You to shut up the skies and hold back the rain, so my harvest will fail, and my life ends quickly in that good land that You are blessing me with. 

You promised to conquer my enemies when they attack me. You said if they attack me from one direction, You will make them scatter from me in seven! I praise You for keeping Your promise and sending fear and dread ahead of me, and for driving out my enemies from my land. Thank You Lord for not allowing my enemies to be able to stand against me.  

Father, I promise to commit Your words to my heart, and tie them to my hands as a reminder, and will wear them on my forehead. I promise to teach them to my children, and will talk about Your words when I am home, I will talk about them with my friends, when I go to bed, and when I get up. I will write them on the doorposts of my house so that as long as the sky remains above the earth, me and my children will flourish in the land You swore to give my ancestors. 

Once more Lord, I promise to be careful to obey all the commands You have given me, and will show you how much I love You by  walking in Your ways and clinging to Your Words.  Therefore today I can claim these blessings in my life because I am obeying Your commands. I thank you Father for keeping Your word and blessing me with an abundance of good things in the land You swore to give my ancestors. 

Father, when I come into the land that you are giving me, I will be careful not to forget the One who blessed me with this land, I will not forget the One who has caused me to prosper.  I will never forget Your faithfulness Father, I promise to honor You by blessing the land in Your Holy Name.  I promise to walk around it praising the Name of Lord, I promise to give you all the Glory, all the honor and the Praise for all that You have done. 

O Lord that You would bless me indeed. That You O Lord would enlarge my territories. That Your hand would be upon me. And that You would keep me from evil that I may not cause pain.

I know speak forth, declare, and prophesy these things forth into my life in the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
