Words Of Blessing
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual
blessings in heavenly places in Christ
(Ephesians 1:3).
God has already blessed you with every good
thing that exists in Christ. Health, prosperity,
victory, success, joy, peace, and every blessing you can
imagine are already yours. You’ve already been blessed
in all things, and with all things. What you need is to
know how to get the blessing working in your life.
Numbers 6:22-24 gives us an idea; it says, “And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto
Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye
shall bless the children of Israel, saying unto them,
The LORD bless thee, and keep thee.” The children of
Israel were already blessed, being the physical earthly
seed of Abraham. Why would the priest need to bless
them? It’s because the words of blessings must be
pronounced on the blessed.
Notice what God did in the book of Genesis: After
creating Adam and Eve, the Bible says He blessed
them. How? With words! He said, “Be fruitful and
multiply…” (Genesis 1:28). The example of Jesus is
another case in point. Talking about His disciples, the
Bible says, “And he led them out as far as to Bethany,
and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them” (Luke
24:50). Jesus lifted His hands and invoked blessings
on His disciples.
It’s like what Paul said in Romans 1:11: “For I long
to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual
gift, to the end ye may be established.” There’s an
impartation, a blessing that changes your life forever
when the Word is ministered to you. It’s part of the
reason we emphasize going to Church. In Church,
you receive the Word of blessing that transforms your
life. Every time you receive the Word of God, there’s
an upliftment; your life is upgraded; the blessings that
are already in your spirit are activated and they start
working.
Confession
I’m the seed of Abraham, and his blessings rest on me! I’m
like a tree by the stream, wellwatered and ever flourishing,
bearing fruits of righteousness and experiencing luxuriant
growth in every area of my life.
Truly, the lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places and
I live in prosperity and victory every day. Hallelujah!
