The results of our actions as His covenant people; therefore still would (from the way I see it) involve blessings or cursings for us individually; and perhaps as a society at large much as it did with ancient Israel. There are; of course territorial promises that are different for us today as Americans; for instance. What isn't different is the same demons which are running amuck that were around for millennia. We are; ultimately in league with Christ or with the darkness. When we look at those such as Ananias and Sapphira we see how in an extreme example God can deal with those who are in the confessing church. It can't be said for certain if they truly knew the Lord; but it shows in God's house and His presence we had better take our responsibilities seriously.
He has called us as a peculiar people to be called out from the rest of the world. The Corinthian church was warned that those who took communion unworthily were either sick or had died ( 1 Cor. 11:29). He does chastise all those He loves; and for the tares; often they are seemingly naive of anything they are doing against God or the results that are sometimes obvious to others. A striking example of the hypocrisy of some prosperity mega churches is when the preacher himself who is declaring healings of others themselves gets sick. It is possible; I suppose for that to happen; but how come no one is praying for them?
No one seems to indicate that perhaps because of greed they are reaping what they sow. It isn't always sin that causes sickness; but for those obviously in sinful lifestyles it shouldn't be too surprising if it happens. Of course those preaching the health and wealth gospel will never (seemingly) indite THEMSELVES as the culprit even after accusing others of not being blessed by "sowing seed" financially.
As far as blessings are concerned; those families that stick it out with marriages are often not seen as having the blessings of God in their lives.
