1 Chronicles 4:9-10

I. Neither an unhappy past nor human inheritance prevents the child of God from experiencing God’s blessing.

A. God’s child is not promised an easy life.

B. God’s child must acknowledge His covenantal plan for the world through His chosen people.

II. The child of God experiences God’s blessing as he or she seeks to be fully used of God in carrying out God’s great program in history.

A. God is pleased when we ask Him to enlarge our boundaries of service to Him.

B. God answers our cry for divine protection against spiritual attack and subversion.
