God can not Bless you past your last act of disobedience!

Job 42:7-10 (New King James Version)
7 And so it was, after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, that the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is aroused against you and your two friends, for you have not spoken of Me what is right, as My servant Job has. 8 Now therefore, take for yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, go to My servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and My servant Job shall pray for you. For I will accept him, lest I deal with you according to your folly; because you have not spoken of Me what is right, as My servant Job has.” 9 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as the LORD commanded them; for the LORD had accepted Job. 10 And the LORD restored Job’s losses when he prayed for his friends. Indeed the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.

I start this day with these words about Job and his friends to speak about something that is very dear to me, God's Blessings. Most of the time we decide that God has chosen not to bless us because we are not good or because he possibly just does not care or He just does not know who I am. I believe that this kind of doubt coupled with a lack of understanding of God's word leads us to believe that God will just Bless someone else and not me.
We get angry at God and begin to make an argument that maybe God does not exist. We ask God to help us and nothing happens, which leads us into further doubt and disbelief. We determine within ourselves there is no God. We begin to believe our own Eliphaz's, and Bildad's and Zophar's and reason amongst our friends that there is no hope and we should just give up.
So enough about the problem, let's take a look at the solution. I first want to tell you that the problem is us. We are the ones who live in disobedience and denial. I have stated and believe that "God can not Bless you past your last act of Disobedience." that's right can not. We sometimes confuse this as will not instead of can not. it is totally God' will to bless you, but he can not if we continue to live in disobedience.
Everyone likes to look at Job and see that God considered him a good servant, a just and upright citizen. We believe that these qualities will bring God's blessings and nothing else matters. But, it was not his life that brought the blessing in the end it was ONE act of obedience (v.10) when he prayed that God restored or multiplied or however you would like to consider the increase, He was Blessed because he obeyed.
Now if you have been living in disobedience and God's blessings have been cut off from you, Repent from the disobedience and allow to God to direct your path and instruct you into a course of action that leads to obedience. You are probably right now beginning to see things that you can do. i say do them and stop withholding God's Blessings. Remember it is totally God's will to bless you, but He can not Bless you past your last act of disobedience.
May God Bless,
