2 Peter 1:4
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.
It is true that God has blessed His children materially and spiritually, though that is not to say that everyone has received it. However the other gift is God's nature itself. As we come to know Him and have fellowship with Him, we are also supposed to grow in His likeness and nature. As with all gifts, after the giver has given, the receiver need also to actively receive it.
