Are you curious about the distinction between multiplying a blessing and having it folded into an increase and overflow? If so, I’m delighted to explain!
Isaiah 61:7, “You will receive twice the honor and joy in place of your shame and confusion. You will also be blessed with double abundance, leading to lasting joy in your life.”
When God blesses us, it is often in abundance. He not only provides us with the original blessing but also rewards us with a greater amount. This is known as a multiplied blessing. When the Lord showers His blessings upon you, you will experience an abundance of more than enough.
Folding is the process of doubling an object’s initial size or level. It works similarly to how you would fold a piece of paper, which is doubled if folded once and quadrupled if folded twice. This process can be repeated to make it bigger; stronger, eventually leading to an overflow.
Mark 10:29-30, “Jesus instructs His disciples to make a similar amount of progress. “Jesus said emphatically, “If you are willing to give up your family, possessions and follow My teachings, there will be a great reward awaiting you.” Whoever abides in the faith now will be rewarded a hundredfold; this includes having homes and family, enduring persecutions and ultimately, achieving eternal life in the world to come.”
Pyrite is a powerful stone that symbolizes completion and the rewarding feeling of fruition. This represents a significant milestone – the 48th step on our spiritual path towards fulfilling our destiny in life with God, through Jesus Christ. When we faithfully do what God has planned for us, we will start to see evidence of a hardworking person’s efforts coming to fruition.
We can expect an increase in abundance and progress from God accompanied with joy and feelings of satisfaction. Pyrite helps us trust that it will all come true, as it is entrusted to us for safekeeping by the Lord Almighty. So, as we make our way down the winding road of life, let us keep this treasure close by so that when doubt sets in, its glittering iridescence gives assurance that all will be fine if we just stay committed and believe!
1 Peter 1:1-4, “Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:”
“Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.”
Rephrased, “Writing to those who possess a similar precious faith as ours, which has been granted by the righteous acts of our God and Savior Jesus Christ, Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, salutes you.”
“May the knowledge of God and Jesus bring you greater grace and peace. His divine power has made available to us all the things which are vital for life and devotion, through understanding of Him who called us with glory and goodness. God has been incredibly generous and provided us with incredible promises. By having faith in them, we can take part in His divine nature and stay away from the world’s corruption that arises from our sinful desires.”
The power of God’s promises to mankind is manifested through His divine will and grace. When we dedicate our lives to Christ, live obediently and make a lifelong commitment to Him, we can experience these promises come alive in our lives. As we progress along the path that God has provided us, we are rewarded with an abundance of blessings from the heavenly storehouse.
Malachi 3:10, “The Lord of Hosts is instructing us to be generous with our tithes and offerings and that if we do, He will reward us immensely by opening the windows of heaven and pouring out such blessing that we can’t contain. Let’s give back to the Lord and trust Him for the great reward.”
“The Lord of hosts declares that He will protect your ground from being devoured, so that all the fruits of your labor remain safe. He further promises that your land will be a delight to all nations, and you shall be blessed by them.”
He has blessed us with incredible abundance, and it is up to us to embrace it. By adhering to the Lord’s teachings, we are honored to give Him the respect He is due and in return, He blesses us with increase and overflow from windows of Heaven with His love and grace – as He has sworn since the start of our existence. The Holy Spirit generously bestows us with its bountiful overflow.
Pyrite is known as the ‘Guardian Stone of Fruition’ and symbolizes the 48th step on our journey towards purpose, destiny, and fulfillment in life with God through Jesus Christ. It reminds us that hard work towards our dreams and goals comes with a great reward of abundance, increase, and overflow from God; often accompanied by joy.
Pyrite shows us that true joy does not lie in comforts but in experiencing success after much labor. As we take each day to diligently reach our goals, we can become closer to finding our fulfillment through God’s grace.
Ephesians 1:3-6, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.”
Rephrased, “We thank God, our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, for blessing us with numerous spiritual gifts in the heavenly realm. He selected us to be holy and without fault before Him because of His love even before the start of creation. God, in His perfect and wise plan, predestined us to be adopted as His children through Jesus Christ. This was done to the praise of His glorious grace that had made us accepted in the Beloved.”
God is pouring out into your life a 100-fold increase for honoring His commands and walking on the path that He has set for you. The Guardian Stone of fruition is symbolic of this bounty, with Pyrite, the 48th step, representing abundance, increase, overflow, and joy of the Lord – what happens when we are obedient to Him.
As this God-given blessing washes over us through the release of the Holy Spirit, Mercy triumphs over Judgement in telling us that even if we fail, God will be faithful to give us new beginnings to start again. His Word is our assurance of His goodness and by entrusting ourselves to Him more with each breath we take and following Him despite our fears and doubts ahead, we can experience His outpouring in abundance – a 100-fold increase!
Pyrite is a bright metallic element made up of iron and sulfur, and it is seen as a symbol of God’s blessings to us in the form of growth, abundance, joy, and fulfillment. It stands for the 48th step on our journey towards realizing our potentials in life by seeking solace from God through Jesus Christ. As we put in hard work accompanied with faith, we will receive not just godly wisdom but also abundant fruition–increase and overflow. This guardian stone reminds us that nothing can replace hard work and faith in bearing actual fruit with joy.
Titus 3:1-8, “Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work, to speak evil of no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing all humility to all men. For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another.
But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared, not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
“This is a faithful saying, and these things I want you to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men.”
