RECEIVING GOD’S BEST
Ephesians 3:20 (KJV) – “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.”
Psalm 37:4 (KJV) – “Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”
Many People Does not know that God has the best for Them.
Some know God has The best for them but they do not know the key to access the best of God.
One of the important Point I want to bring to your notice is that if we do not position ourselves to receive God’s Best, we might miss the best .
Those that Receive the best from God , I discovered something uncommon them :
They go extra mile in their devotion to God.
They go extra mile in their commitment to God
They go extra mile in their consecration to God.
This is why God appoint them for the best.
There is divine appointment for the best .
Some Best Of God can not be Receive Until We Give The Best To God.
》Until We Give the best of our Time
》Until We Give the best of our energy
》UNTIL We Give the best of our praises
》Until We Give the best of our Offering

Positioning Ourselves For God’s Best is the best decision you can ever make In your life.
This is why the choice we make in life can determine whether we will receive God’s Best or not .

Examples
1. Esau: In the Bible, Esau is portrayed as a impulsive and impatient person. He rashly sold his birthright to his brother Jacob for a bowl of stew, which later brought sorrow as he realized the significance of what he had lost (Genesis 25:29–34).
2. Samson: Samson, known for his incredible strength, often let his lust and impulsivity control his actions. One example is when he married a Philistine woman against his parents’ wishes, which ultimately led to sorrowful consequences for him and his family (Judges 14:1–3).
3. Lot’s wife: When Sodom and Gomorrah were being destroyed, Lot’s wife could not resist looking back despite being explicitly commanded not to. Her impulsive action resulted in her being turned into a pillar of salt (Genesis 19:26).
4. King Saul: As the first king of Israel, Saul had great potential for success. However, he frequently made decisions based on fear and rushed to take matters into his own hands rather than seeking wisdom from God. This ultimately led to his downfall and a life full of sorrow (1 Samuel 13:7–14; 1 Samuel 31:1–4).
5. Judas Iscariot: Judas, one of Jesus’ twelve disciples, allowed greed and impatience to blind him and rush him into betraying Jesus for thirty pieces of silver. His hasty actions resulted in immense sorrow, leading to his own death by suicide (Luke 22:47–48; Matthew 27:3–5).
