What Blessing?

A word of Wisdom:

What Blessing?


The word "blessing" has been highly overused and misused in this modern society and degraded by 'religiously-minded' folks such that it has become just a meaninless, "feels good" word, even as a sounding brass or tinkling cymbal, 

that is totally derided of its biblical meaning, even a word spoken to make one to appear as having a form of godliness.


Numbers 6:24-27 KJV

The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: 

[25] The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: 

[26] The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. 

[27] And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them.


But,

What exactly are the blessings?


Deuteronomy 28:1-14 KJV

And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 

[2] And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God. 

[3] Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field. 

[4] Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. 

[5] Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store. 

[6] Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out. 

[7] The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways. 

[8] The LORD shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. 

[9] The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, and walk in his ways. 

[10] And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of thee. 

[11] And the LORD shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers to give thee. 

[12] The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow. 

[13] And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them: 

[14] And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.


Matthew 5:1-12 KJV

And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: 

[2] And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, 

[3] Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 

[4] Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. 

[5] Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. 

[6] Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. 

[7] Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. 

[8] Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. 

[9] Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. 

[10] Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 

[11] Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 

[12] Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Healing Confessions

Template -  Healing Confessions (Read aloud daily) (Note: remain in faith and not confess negatively with your mouth any doubts or unbelief based on the symptoms that you see or negative medical reports, even when you don't see/feel any improvements in your body. Your negative confessions will cancel the effects of the positive healing confessions you have confessed every day. For we walk by faith, not by sight.) It is written, Isaiah 53:4-5 KJV Surely He hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows:  and with His stripes we are healed. 1 Peter 2:24 KJV by whose stripes ye were healed Matthew 8:17 KJV Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

Covenant Heir Declaration

Covenant Heir Declaration  Abba, Father,  I come to You not as a beggar, But as a blood bought heir. Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:  But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law,  To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.  And because we are sons,  God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying,  Abba, Father.  Wherefore I am no more a servant, but a son;  and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ. As many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God,  even to them that believe on His Name:  Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith He loved us,  Even when we were dead in sins, has quickened us together with Christ, (by grac...
