A Hundred Fold Blessings!



Deepest prayer of St.Francis
God wants to give you 100 fold blessings!

Peter answered him, "We have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?"Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life- (Matt 19:29).










Peter left his vocation and everything followed the
Lord and asking the Lord What will be there for us? Well the Lord replied a great blessings! Jesus Christ is our greatest blessings and if you are dare enough to ask him basing on the promises of God you will be blessed tremendously.Jesus was speaking to Apostles! Yes indeed He will be speaking to you write now.Challenge yourself with the promise of God,claim it with unwaivering faith you will see 100times blessings coming to you.Remember this words are spoken by Jesus and they are not lies.No Bank gives you 100 times return it is Jesus and heavenly bank will return to you 100times on earth and also you will heavenly estate and inheritnace.

There is a story of St.Francis of Assissi:

We left St. Francis of Assisi bound, beaten and locked up by his father for spending his gold in the repair of San Damiano or St. Damian's Church. We now continue the adventures of this Seraphic Doctor of the Church.

Freed by his mother during his father Bernardone's absence, Francis returned at once to St. Damian's, where he found a shelter with the officiating priest, but he was soon cited before the city consuls by his father. The latter, not content with having recovered the gold from St. Damian's, sought also to force his son to forego his inheritance. This Francis was only too eager to do; he declared, however, that since he had entered the service of God he was no longer under civil jurisdiction. Having therefore been taken before the bishop, Francis stripped himself of the very clothes he wore, and gave them to his father, saying: "Hitherto I have called you my father on earth; henceforth I desire to say only 'Our Father who art in Heaven.'"

"Everyone who has left houses, brothers, sisters, father, mother, children or lands for the sake of my name will be repaid a hundred times over and also inherit eternal life." (Matt. 19:29)

St. Francis renouncing his inheritance and returning all his possessions to his father, including the clothes he wore.

On a certain morning in 1208, probably 24 February, Francis was hearing Mass in the chapel of St. Mary of the Angels, near which he had then built himself a hut; the Gospel of the day told how the disciples of Christ were to possess neither gold nor silver, nor scrip for their journey, nor two coats, nor shoes, nor a staff, and that they were to exhort sinners to repentance and announce the Kingdom of God. Francis took these words as if spoken directly to himself, and so soon as Mass was over threw away the poor fragment left him of the world's goods, his shoes, cloak, pilgrim staff, and empty wallet.

St. Francis giving away his cloak to a poor man.

At last he had found his vocation. Having obtained a coarse woolen tunic of "beast colour", the dress then worn by the poorest Umbrian peasants, and tied it round him with a knotted rope, Francis went forth at once exhorting the people of the country-side to penance, brotherly love, and peace.

The Assisians had already ceased to scoff at Francis; they now paused in wonderment; his example even drew others to him. Bernard of Quintavalle, a magnate of the town, was the first to join Francis, and he was soon followed by Peter of Cattaneo, a well-known canon of the cathedral. In true spirit of religious enthusiasm, Francis repaired to the church of St. Nicholas and sought to learn God's will in their regard by thrice opening at random the book of the Gospels on the altar. Each time it opened at passages where Christ told His disciples to leave all things and follow Him. "This shall be our rule of life", exclaimed Francis, and led his companions to the public square, where they forthwith gave away all their belongings to the poor. After this they procured Good habits like that of Francis, and built themselves small huts near his at the Porziuncola or the Portiuncula.



 It happened in the life of Ruth that she had a strong commitment to serve the Lord and left everything.The result was tremendous.God is not a liar.He is ready to bless you today."

  
" Boaz replied, “I’ve been told all about what you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband—how you left your father and mother and your homeland and came to live with a people you did not know before.May the LORD repay you for what you have done. May you be richly rewarded by the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.”(Ruth2:11-12).

"What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ" ( Phil 3:8).

St.Francis stripped naked by his father
Paul is considering everything loss for knowing Christ.What are you  losing for to gain Christ.If you loss your education,Job,beauty, richness, parents,relatives, friends, wealth & health int he ministry etc for the sake of Christ your blessings will be of hundred fold as it is happened in the life of Ruth and St.Francis of Assissi and also Apostles.

"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well"(Matthew 6:33).

"Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world"(Matthew 25:34).


"He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap; he seats them with princes and has them inherit a throne of honor. "For the foundations of the earth are the LORD's; upon them he has set the world"(1 Samuel 2:8).
