THE BLESSING OF THE LORD
“The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, and He adds no sorrow with it.
Proverbs 10:22 (NKJV)
Main Text:
The blessing of the Lord will make you rich. God created everything with His words of faith. All the good God planned for each person is written in His Book of Destiny. The blessing is not an “it” that makes you rich; the blessing is God who makes you rich. Please note that the verse didn’t say blessings, it said blessing which signifies an empowerment.
The word blessing in the Hebrew tongue is called “barak” which means “empowered to succeed” or “to bestow favor and goodness”. The blessing of the Lord, is God’s original plan for you. Contrary to popular belief, God doesn’t want you sick, broke, lonely, and miserable. He wants to make you rich in every area of life your health, finances, relationships with men and God! God wants you blessed!
2 Thess 3:10 (MSG) “Don't you remember the rule we had when we lived with you?”If you don't work, you don't eat.” It’s important that we have one business we engage in, in order to channel God’s blessing into our lives. We do work, however, as children of faith we don’t toil.
Confession
I am blessed! I enjoy the blessing; I am empowered to succeed. The blessing of Abraham is mine through Christ Jesus. I am blessed beyond measures!
