- As a church, we just completed our 21 days of prayer & Fasting.
- During our services, this weekend, we declared a blessing over our church and I would like to do the same thing over everyone who reads this Devotional.
- This blessing is one of the most familiar blessings in the Hebrew Bible.
- It was the blessing that was pronounced over the children of Israel by the priest.
- It is simple but profound.
- Every line repeats His name as "The Lord" reminding them of His involvement in their life.
- Just as when it was given, know that, today, The Lord wants to bless you!
- He is interested in what you are going through.
- He wants to be involved in every part of your life.
- He is the source of every blessing that you desire.
- When you face fearful situations, you can be confident in The Lord your Protector.
- You can call on Him by name.
- He will watch over you, He will guard you and protect you.
- He wants to be kind and gracious to you.
- He wants to place His approval and favor on your life.
- He wants you to experience His peace through all of life's storms.
- The key is this: All blessings flow from from Him.
- He is the source and they are found in a relationship with Him.
- Don't spend your life seeking the blessing.
- Put your focus on the One who Blesses.
- Focus on Him.
- Seek Him first...
- Out of that relationship will flow His abundant blessing in every part of your life.
- Matt. 6:33 puts it this way, "Seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides."
- Seek Him first and then He will take care of the rest.
- Every part of your life.
- Physically, spiritually, emotionally, financially.
- Remind yourself, today, that you are blessed!
- He's already given it to you...It's available, so go ahead, receive it and thank Him for it!
- Have a great Have a great Monday!
