There are reasons why people don't get blessed.
There are reasons why the power of God don't flow effectively in people's lives.
You may think it is sins...But it isn't for the case of Christians.
So many Christians pray for breakthrough, enlargement of coast etc but God isnt answering. Do you want to know why?
1. Read Genesis 22:1 and Deuteronomy 8:2-5
God test people before He can manifest His promise upon a man's life.
There is a big gap between Gods promise and manifestation.
God promise and before He manifest that promise He test the man to ascertain how firm he is in Him, how much he loves Him, how well he can handle the condition when been blessed...
Check the Bible thoroughly, you will noticed that all men of God weye tested before the promise began to manifest....Abraham twice, David several times, Joshua, etc
If Abraham had failed the test do you think the promises will be fulfilled in his life?
If Abraham had not welcome those angels and fed them, do you think Isaac would be born?
If David had killed Saul that night, he won't have touch let alone enter the throne?
Is it not the same God that raise the dead? Is it not the same Jesus that made the blind to see? So is that situation too difficult for Him to handle?
It's not sin that hinders those blessings.
Many Christians don't pass the test. They remain where they are because they fail the test.
Don't take God's promise for His manifestation. Man must be tried before the next level can be unveil for him.
2. What delay most times, even after fasting and praying in faith, is because we don't have the capacity to receive the blessing. Are you ready for the blessing? Are you ready for the increase, because more increase more work and responsibility? More population more, more work.
Don't you know if some people received 1 billion dollars right now they will faint. When they recover they become dictator?
The effectiveness of prayer is the capacity to receive the blessings. Why should a man in a small one apartment with small space expect God to answer his prayer for Large refrigerator or big generator set? Where is he putting it. If he thinks of enlarging his coast first then those items will come.
Why should a pastor whose church is small be praying for church increase? God is saying do you have the capacity to receive it? Just expand first and watch how the increase will come miraculously. Some would say, "God I need population in my church" and in reality they are yet not ready to handle that kind of crowd. Such prayer can't be answered.
God I need children, but how do you handled other children or how well are you ready?
If God can block Rachel's womb because Jacob loved her and never liked Leah, open the eyes of your heart to decode when He is dealing with you and correct quickly.
When a man doesn't have the capacity to receive answers, or when God Sees that it will destroy the man, he withhold that which he seek from him.
Remained blessed
May God open your eyes to know His will.
Apostle Julius Ikhide-Iyke Etaifo
