Good morning, blessed ones!

Every one of us, as God’s children, have what the Scripture calls, “THE BLESSING.”

THE BLESSING is an empowerment, a divine enablement to accomplish what God has said we can have and do.

THE BLESSING is really God’s FAVOR on your life – It is when He makes His face shine on you. Numbers 6:24-27 says,

• The LORD will BLESS you and keep you; The LORD will make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; The LORD will lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace.  So they shall put My Name on My children and I will BLESS them.

When you walk in THE BLESSING, you make good decisions; you see supernatural opportunities and the right people come across your path!  And realize, it’s NOT YOUR OWN STRENGTH; it’s NOT YOUR OWN ABILITY; it’s THE BLESSING of God on your life!

We have all experienced a measure of THE BLESSING – We have seen a measure of God’s FAVOR – But, there is a level of BLESSING that God is going to release in your life, like nothing you have ever seen before.

The Apostle Paul said in Romans 15:29,

• I will come in the fullness of THE BLESSING.

The word “FULLNESS” means:  To the highest degree; to the highest measure.  God has abundance lined up for you and if He showed it to you, it would boggle your minds. God has opportunities in the future that are going to amaze you!

One thing I have learned is that God likes to out-do Himself!  God’s desire for your life is SO MUCH BIGGER than your own.  We are not here by accident – We have been chosen by the Creator of the Universe.  John 15:16 says,

• You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit; and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My Name, He may give you.

Your destiny is not determined by the economy, how you were raised, or your education – Your destiny was determined by Almighty God and the good news is: God has ALREADY laid out a life of victory for every one of you!  Whether you realize it or not, even right now, because you are honoring God, He is arranging things in your favor.  1 Samuel 2:30 says,

• For those who honor Me, I will honor.

You will look back in the days ahead and say, “How in the world did I end up here?”  “This had to be the hand of God.”  All I can say is that the Scripture says in Psalm 118:23,

• Look what the LORD has done; it is marvelous in our eyes!

What happened?  You tapped in a GREATER MEASURE OF THE BLESSING.  Some of you today need to release your faith for this fullness.  GOD IS A GOD OF ABUNDANCE!  He not only wants you to have enough to meet your needs, but to have so much left over that you can be a blessing to somebody else!

“Father we stand in awe of Your goodness toward us.  We are so BLESSED because we have food on the table; we are BLESSED because we have peace; we are BLESSED in this home You have given us.  You are not a barely- get-by God.  You are a more-than-enough God!  What You have arranged for our families is MORE THAN we can ever even dream of!  Thank You for Your wisdom.  We decide to keep You first place in our lives and honor You with our lives.  Thank You for your supernatural favor in unprecedented ways!  You are our source, our all-in-all, the Lord God Almighty! Thank You for amazing us with Your goodness.  We praise You, bless You, and thank You, in Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

Walking in THE BLESSING today,
