God is not stingy with His blessings, but He will not bless you unless your life is clear in every aspect. Many people desire God's blessings, but do not understand why they are not getting them. Pastor Hampton, by God's help, gives the solution to this dilemma. Before you will be blessed God, you must prepare for the blessing. You must be willing to reason with God, and be honest and humble enough to acknowledge and deal sufficiently with anything He shows you. Once you clear the way, God will pour out His blessings upon you, as He has been desiring to do.

There is notion in the atmosphere that would have you to believe that God and His way of life is oppressive and tyrannical. Many today have bought into this false narrative and have become turned off to God and his religion without substantive cause. In today's episode Pastor Hampton beautifully advances to us that God’s nature is not negative, destructive, or damning, but rather the polar opposite. He is stimulated by extending mercy. Even when God pronounces his judgement and executes justice it’s always out of love, and never revenge. Thank God for his unmerited, undeserved, and under appreciated mercy that He extends to all his human children on a daily basis.

We are living in a time of violent spiritual warfare. Our foe is aggressive, and so are all of his forces. Through his aggression, and the lack of aggression of those who claim to be God's people, this entire world is under the devil's sway. He has taken the world and a great portion of the church through his violence, and it is only through a greater violence and aggression that will we take it back! Only through spiritual aggressiveness can we be prepared for the devil's aggression. Without this violent mentality, we will struggle just to keep what we have instead of invading the enemy's territory. But with this aggressive attitude, be it fully known that we will make the devil back up! He can only hold up under the consistent onslaught of a divine aggression for so long before he breaks!
