My Declaration of Blessing (Part 3)

The Prayer of Blessing that God gave to Moses.

Numbers 6:22-27 "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 LORD MAKE HIS FACE SHINE UPON THEE, AND BE GRACIOUS UNTO THEE: THE LORD LIFT UP HIS COUNTENANCE UPON THEE, AND GIVE THEE PEACE. And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them'."

Is God the same now as He was then? Then why will not the same blessing work today for each of us. I believe that it will!

 -Say this blessing over your children, your spouses, your friends, your church, and even your enemies. You will see a change.

 -Use your words to bless, not tear down. Lives will turn around. Attitudes will change. Relationships will only get better.

 -If you believe that God is exactly the same today as He was yesterday then you’ll believe the next scripture when God was talking to His chosen people, the children of Israel. We are also His chosen thru the blood of Jesus Christ.

Deuteronomy 30:19 " I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:

Isn't that powerful? Choose life. Life in Christ, so that you and your off-spring may live. You have the power of life and death just by the way you talk. You can spiritually kill someone or you can spiritually give someone a reason to live. That reason is Christ. Share Christ with edifying words; don’t kill your testimony with foul communication.
