PROMISE 61 – A REAL BLESSING

PROMISE 61 – A REAL BLESSING

Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a real blessing.  –Psalm 127:3 (GNT)

When God first appeared to Abraham, He promised, “I will bless you… and you shall be a blessing… and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed” (Gen. 12:2-3).  Later on He pledged, “In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed” (Gen 22:18).  God promised to bless Abraham by giving him children; then God promised to use those children to bless all the families of the earth—of every nation, race, and culture.  What a blessing to see them mature and fulfill their dreams! But what an even greater blessing it is to see them bless others with the truth and expand God’s blessing around the globe! This is what it means to be a real blessing, and this is what I claim for you and yours!

PRAYER DECLARATION

Lord God, I know Galatians 3:9 announces that those who are “of faith” are “blessed with faithful Abraham”. I declare that one of my greatest blessing will be the continuation of God’s blessing through my offspring.  I confess that Joshua andMikayla are and will be a great blessing to me.  But more importantly, my children will be a blessing to You and to many others while in this world.  May the blessing of God flow so powerfully through them so that it ultimately extends around the globe in its influence.  In the name of Jesus, amen (let it be so)!
