Topic: The Necessity Of The Blessing [5th August 2018 Daily Devotional]
Scripture: And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Genesis 1:26.
Thought For The Day: The Blessing causes the blessed to exist as a difference maker.
The Scripture makes it clear that a major thing God gave to Adam after creation in order for him to fulfil destiny was the Blessing. This is because the Blessing of God is indispensable to the life and destiny of man even from the beginning of creation.
Now, one necessity of the Blessing is that the Blessing imparts the supernatural force that positions people for generational influence and impact.
Now, what does this mean?
1. The Blessing is necessary for existence as a generational gap and vacuum filler
The Blessing makes you a generational space occupier; it makes you a person of timber and calibre; it processes you into a person of substance and stature.
- The Blessing processes the blessed into a generational problem solver and solution provider
The Blessing makes a person an answer in his place of work, family, community or nation. This was what Joseph and Daniel had that made them provide answers to Pharaoh and Nebuchadnezzar. -
The Blessing causes the blessed to exist as a difference maker
This is when you do not just exist but live to make a difference.
Now, I give you one key to activate the Blessing of God amidst other keys:
1. Obedience to God and righteousness of life (Deuteronomy 28:1-2). Righteousness will give you the Blessing but crookedness will deny you the Blessing of God.
Beloved, my counsel is, make up your mind to activate the blessing of God in your life.
Remember this: The Blessing causes the blessed to exist as a difference maker.
Assignments:
1. Desire the blessing of God in your life.
2. Ask God to release His Blessing on your life
Prayer: O Lord, I ask for the impartation of the Blessing upon my life. Help me, Lord, to connect the Blessing through covenant practice and the prophetic cover over my life, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
