Through the Bible we realize that one of the manifestations of having open skies is that God answers our prayers, taking it finds (in addition to the passages which referred to explicitly have open skies), we see that is what opens the heavens for a family or a person in general:
1. Put God as the most important of our lives , More seek, therefore, do not worry, saying, `` What shall we eat? or `` What shall we drink? or `` what do we wear? For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things and your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all these things shall be added. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will take care of itself. Sufficient for the day their own problems, "Matthew 6:31-34. As human beings we are accustomed to be guided by what we see and not what we see and often placed first material, our economy, work, family, etc. But God offered to be aware of all matter in our lives if we learn to appreciate things more spiritual than material. That's what Jacob did, though he was a cheater, a liar and a deadbeat, there was something to which he attached great importance: The birthright, it was a spiritual blessing, not tangible and that allowed her to experience open skies while running away his brother, that gave him standing to request and receive all that he prayed that night. We may have flaws, sometimes people do not go to church, but we are not in a congregation because we are the saints, but because they are the ones who most need. Beatitudes Jesus promises to us, we recognize our spiritual poverty, because ours is the kingdom of heaven.
2. Appropriate responses to our partner. You , husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honor to the woman as the weaker partner and as heirs of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered (1 Peter 3:7). The Apostle adds to the board a reason for compliance and that our prayers be not hindered. We're actually talking about both men to women as female to male. The Apostle Peter does not say that women are fragile glass, but glass "fragile", indicating that both men, women, fathers, mothers, sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, we are fragile. We are all sensitive, have feelings, if we hit it hurts. Each of us fear a breaking point. We can not, nor should we find excuses to verbal abuse, psychological or physical. How can we be free to ask for blessings in our life if the same mouth to curse God bless our brother (a) not only created by God but our own blood? God does not justify violence, inadequate treatment, insults, comparisons, judgmental attitudes, he is in favor of a deal of love, communion, peace, kindness, etc. That is the fruit that shows someone guided by his Spirit. If the treatment of all family members have been adequate, it would be as many say, heaven on earth and obviously blessings Sky also fill the home.
3. Keep fidelity in marriage, "Again you shall cover the altar of Jehovah with tears, with weeping, and crying out, so do not look to the offering, to accept with pleasure at your hand. But say: Why? Lord hath been witness between thee and the wife of your youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. Did not one, having an excellent spirit in him? And why one? That he might seek a godly seed. So guard yourself in your spirit, and do not break faith with the wife of your youth "Malachi 2:13-15 . This time God shows not only that there are open skies so that we receive from God but also so we can give to God, which results in that we also receive, Luke 6:38. Here's infidelity is the cause that makes the heavens are closed and that more than prepare an excellent offering, each according to what they receive from God (praise, money, service, teaching, prayer, etc.), these offerings are not by no means received by God, perhaps others to see and enjoy them but when you have to judge fairly render a verdict, say that he never received anything ours. That experience so sad! We think we're giving and giving, with every effort of time, money, etc. and that everything we did and gave to God is not received by him God is a covenant God and one who keeps his own, is the heavens open to anything that would give the Lord be received and rewarded by Him
4. Submit to God tithes and offerings , "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven and pour upon you a blessing, that "Malachi 3:10 . Another way to open the windows of heaven is fulfilling our responsibility of tithing and giving. The tithe is a tenth of what we earn and it belongs to God, not ours, so when I give tithes'm not giving anything of me, but I'm just giving what belongs to God. Jesus said that where our treasure is, there your heart will be also, if I get problems by giving 10% (tithe), then how will I manage the remaining 90% under the will of God, and if I can not return to the Lord belongs to him, how I hope He will have the windows of heaven and pour blessings overflowing? Economic open skies for those who can not depend on money but God and that freedom and gratitude can tithe and offerings to God in generosity.
5. By the Power of Agreement, "I tell you that if two of you agree about anything you ask here on earth, it will be done by my Father in heaven" Matthew 18:19. The context in which Jesus says these words is talking about forgiveness, I have to agree not only pray together on a request or need, but also come to agree on our differences, arguments, conflicts, fights, resentments and grudges. It is not possible to ask God blessings if we fought with our partners: We agree! which implies having the capacity to forgive and ask forgiveness. The Apostle John tells us that we can not love God if we hate our brother, the Lord's Prayer says that if we forgive our brothers our sins, God will forgive us ours too. The Bible says that His mercies are new every morning, but says it should not be the sun on our anger, and if we get angry but not sin. Settings according to your partner, ask forgiveness and / or forgive and then have a consensus on what to ask God and the heavens opened, will lead to the answer of the Almighty.
6. By obedience , "But John tried to stop him, saying, I need to be baptized by you, and you come to me? And Jesus answered and said, 'Permit now, because it is convenient to fulfill all righteousness. Then he allowed Him "Matthew 3:14-15. Jesus did not need to be baptized but acted in obedience to his Father, obviously this does not imply that we are so good they do not have to obey, but to please God we have to, but if Jesus has showed that although not "need" baptized, he did, and saw the heavens opened upon him how much more we need to live in obedience to the will of God to experience such open skies? Additionally, we have what it tells us Deuteronomy 28:1-2, 12: "It will happen if diligently obey the Lord your God, being careful to meet all his commandments which I command you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. And all these blessings will come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the Lord your God ... the LORD will open for you His good treasure, the heaven to give rain to your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hand, and you shall lend to many nations, but shall not borrow. " Obedience brings blessing and without seeking , but is due to be obeyed.
God wants you to walk under open skies, being referred to, protected, listened to and provided by him experience that wonderful blessing.
