Our Substance Blessed
Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store. (Deuteronomy 28:5)
Obedience brings a blessing to all the provisions which our industry earns for us. That which comes
in and goes out at once, like fruit in the basket which is for immediate use, shall be blest; and that
which we lay for a longer season shall equally receive a blessing. Perhaps ours is a
hand-basket portion. We have a little breakfast and a scanty bite for dinner in a basket when we
go out to do our work in the morning. This is well, for the blessing of God is promised to the basket. If
we live from hand to mouth, getting each day's supply in the day, we are as well off as Israel; for
when the Lord entertained His favored people He only gave them a day's manna at a time. What
more did they need? What more do we need?
But if we have a store, how much we need the Lord to bless it! For there is the care of getting, the
care of keeping, the care of managing, the care of using; and, unless the Lord bless it, these cares
will eat into our hearts till our goods become our gods and our cares prove cankers.
O Lord, bless our substance. Enable us to use it for Thy glory, Help us to keep worldly things in their
proper places, and never may our savings endanger the saving of our souls.
