Chased by God’s Blessings—How to Attract God’s Blessings and Walk in His Favor

The key to God’s amazing turnaround plan for you to walk in His favor in every area of life.

Have you ever known someone who seems to be constantly hounded by problems? Every time you see them, there’s a new crisis … health, finances, family, or peace of mind. It’s as if the enemy is harassing them day and night.

The good news is this: God offers a supernatural turnaround to anyone willing to heed His instructions. His Word clearly shows how you can attract God’s blessings instead of endless troubles, and live under the covering of His favor.

Would you like to know how?

When God’s Blessings Chase You

Deuteronomy 28:1–14 paints a powerful picture of the blessings available to those who walk in obedience to God. The Lord not only promises blessings, He also declares that His blessings will overtake you.

“And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you …” (Deuteronomy 28:2).

That means you don’t have to chase God’s blessings. When you walk in His favor, His blessings chase YOU.

Notice how comprehensive God’s favor is:

• Blessed in the city and in the country (v. 3)
• Blessed in your body and in the fruit of your labor (v. 4)
• Blessed in your coming in and going out (v. 6)
• Blessed with victory over your enemies (v. 7)
• Blessing on everything you set your hand to (v. 8)
• You are established as part of the Lord’s holy people (v. 9)
• You receive breakthroughs from God’s  bounty and “good treasure” (v. 11)
• You are positioned as the head and not the tail (v. 13)

This is not partial favor. This is an all-encompassing blessing: spiritually, physically, and materially.

The Condition for God’s Favor

As with countless promises in Scripture, there is a condition attached.

Every blessing in Deuteronomy 28 flows from God’s invitation in verse 1:

“Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God …”

Too often, believers claim the promise but ignore the condition. If we desire the favor of God described in His Word, we must obey His voice and walk in His commandments.

God’s blessings are not random. They are responsive.

Attracting God’s Favor

Many people believe God’s blessings are unpredictable—something that happens (or doesn’t happen) over which we have no personal control or responsibility. This kind of thinking leaves believers living a passive and powerless life.

Scripture teaches something very different. God has already made His decision: He wants to bless you. Now the decision is yours—will you align your life with His favor?

In Deuteronomy 30:15–20, God placed a clear choice before His people:

“I have set before you life and prosperity, and death and adversity …
I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse.
So choose life …”

The choice could not be clearer. Will you choose obedience and blessing—or will you tolerate conditions that allow curses to operate?

Choosing Life Through Obedience

God tells us exactly how to choose life:

• Love the Lord
• Walk in His ways
• Obey His voice
• Hold fast to Him

This is not a casual decision. It requires wholehearted surrender.

Joshua understood this when he stood before Israel and declared: “Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve … But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord” (Joshua 24:15).

Joshua made his decision that day. You must do the same this day, and every day.

A Personal Decision That Changes Everything

There are many competing voices in today’s culture—many false “gods” vying for your loyalty. But the call of the one true God remains unchanged.

Pause for a moment and allow the Holy Spirit to examine your heart. Is there an area of obedience you’ve delayed? Have you resisted the voice of the Lord in some way?

Make a fresh commitment today to live your life in a way that is fully pleasing to Him.

Then get ready—because when you align your life with God’s will, a tidal wave of blessings will begin to chase you and overtake you.
