People of God should learn to be positive things about themselves. No matter the problem you are passing through don't cause your self and speak negatively

God is merciful and kind

God is a miracle working God.
Thank you Jesus Christ

Kobojunkie:
All you have done yet again is spew more doctrines and traditions of men, and then conclude it all by saying that God and Jesus said to pray for blessings. Picking verses from random locations and then pinning them together is exactly what the Pharisees and Sadducees of Jesus's days had become masters of. Did you know that?

Do you ever wonder why those who claim to belong to Jesus Christ are not even able to see God's righteousness in their lives? I am talking about not needing to worry about what you will eat, drink, wear, where you will lay your head?

The reason is simple, and it is because people have chosen to wander away from obeying Jesus Christ and instead chosen to make prayer warriors** of themselves where God never asked them for that. God is still a righteous God. He still desires to, and in fact, does provide for those who live in obedience to Him. He feeds them, cloths them, protects them, provides for them, takes care of them when they are sick, and provides them shelter when they have none. God fights for them, but the key is not that His followers pray for all that He gives them. No, the reason is that they obey Him, for that is what God promised will happen to those who obey Him.

God's blessings are freely given to those who obey God. "Ask anything in my name ....", Jesus said that to those who love Him. And who are those who love Him? Those who obey His every commandment. Jesus Christ said it, and John the apostle echoed it.

** Doctrines and traditions of men

Kobojunkie you are confuse and try not to be confused. The teaching of Jesus Christ teaches the people of God to pray to God for whatever they want. Blessings can be define as the good things God give to his people because his people love him by obeying his command and pray to him.
During the life time of Jesus Christ on earth Jesus would go away to lonely places where he prayed. Jesus always obey the commandments of God but still pray to God because he knew that through prayer he will receive the blessings of God which would help him to fulfill God's purpose for his life on earth.
Jesus Christ also teach his disciples to pray and never become discourage because Jesus Christ know that blessings can be delayed from manifesting by the enemy; the devil. Someone who obey the command of God; his blessings can be delayed from manifesting except such Christian continue to pray until his blessings is manifested.
There are many ways to receive the blessings of God which are by obeying the commandments of God, by giving and by giving to the poor, also through prayer and so on.
Daniel ( in the Scripture) his blessing was delayed by the Prince of Persia for 21 days but due to continually prayer of Daniel, his blessings was manifested and the delay was removed.
Jesus Christ was a prayer warrior because Jesus Christ always go to a lonely places to pray for a long time for God's blessings.
You kobojunkie, you will not say that you have never pray to God to bless you before?
People pray to God for blessings like; praying for healing, protection,good job, journey mercy, e.t.c, All this are the blessings of God. Obeying God does not mean you would not pray to God for his blessings. God command his people to pray to him, if Jesus Christ can pray to God for his blessings who are you kobojunkie to say that the follower of Jesus should not pray for all the blessing they want from God. Are you more righteous than Jesus Christ.
