The Blessing is Irreversible!

“God is not a man, so he does not lie. He is not human, so he does not change his mind. Has he ever spoken and failed to act? Has he ever promised and not carried it through? Listen, I received a command to bless; God has blessed, and I cannot reverse it!”Numbers 23:19-20 NLT

If you are a believer, then you've been blessed along with faithful Abraham (Galatians 3:9), we are heirs of the promise that God made to him(Galatians 3:29). The blessing of the Lord is our inheritance, it was commanded upon us and it is irreversible. Not only did God make a promise to Abraham, he also swore by it (Hebrews 6:17). Do you believe that God can lie? It is absolutely impossible for him to lie, an oath can never be broken. So why is it so difficult for many to believe that he has blessed us?

We came into God's kingdom by faith; in order to enjoy the benefits of the kingdom we must live by faith. We are not mere servants in this kingdom, we are sons (Romans 8:15). Sons are the beneficiaries of their father's Will. We are the beneficiaries of the promise that God gave to Abraham (Genesis 12:1-4; 22:17). Abraham came into the blessing by faith and obedience, that's the key. In order to walk in the blessing (Genesis 1:28), we must trust God absolutely and obey him even when it doesn't seem to make sense. 

Adam lost the blessing because he responded to the enemy based on fear, which led to disobedience. Circumstances and situations will come, challenges and temptations will rare their ugly heads we overcome them all when we choose to believe God and his Word. There isn't a problem that is bigger than God, do you believe in his power to change your situation? Can you be patient enough to see that it works for your good at the end?

If you are in Christ Jesus, you are blessed! It doesn't matter what your account balance is, it doesn't matter what your job title is or is not, it doesn't matter if you have a university degree or not...YOU ARE BLESSED! It doesn't mean that those things are not important, however you shouldn't allow them to define you.

Walking in faith is simple, set your gaze on things above, set your gaze on the Word of God. Refuse to be moved by what you see or feel, faith in God coupled with patience will grant you the desires of your heart. Ask and wait on the Lord until your joy is full (John 16:24), stop believing the lie of the enemy that it isn't God's Will for you. God's Will for you is to be complete in all things, lacking nothing (James 1:4; 2 Corinthians 9:8).

Confession: In the name of the Lord Jesus, I declare that I am blessed! I declare that the blessing of Abraham is so strong upon me that I increase on every side without measure. Amen

Prayer starter: Heavenly father, I asked for grace today to trust in the power of the blessing and to see it's manifestation in every area of my life, in Jesus' name. Amen


You're blessed!
