FAMILY BLESSING
FAMILY BLESSING
FAMILY BLESSING
FOCUS VERSE: Numbers 6: 24 and 25 - The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you.
DECLARATION: My family is under God’s protection. Love and peace fill our homes today.
Family blessing begins with God’s covering: God's blessing is not just provision, it is protection and preservation.
Psalm 127: Unless the Lord stands watch over the city, the watchmen stand in vain.
Proverbs 18: 10 - The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are saved.
2 Thessalonians 3: 3 - The Lord is faithful and He will strengthen and protect you.
There is great protection in the Name of the Lord; a whole family can find protection in this. A blessed family is a ‘covered’ family. The main switch in a house connects all the electrical wiring in such a way as to light up the whole house; similarly, contact to the Almighty God connects the whole family to His protection. Is your ‘main switch’ on? Meaning, is your connection with God strong.
Family blessings flow through God’s favour: God’s face shining upon you shows His favour and approval. God’s favour brings open doors, divine help and unexpected opportunities.
Psalm 5: 12 - The Lord surrounds the righteous as with a shield.
Genesis 39: 21 - God’s favour was upon Joseph in his difficult situations.
Luke 2: 52 - Jesus grew in favour with God and man.
Family blessing is sustained by God’s grace: Grace is God giving us what we can never earn. John chapter 1 speaks of the grace that has come upon us through Christ Jesus. Grace sustains relationships, heals weaknesses and restores brokenness.
2 Corinthians 2: 12 - My grace is sufficient for you.
Hebrews 4: 16 - Let us approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
Relationships survive not because of perfection, but because of grace. Members of a family may be in conflict with each other, but when grace enters their hearts, they choose to forgive and love again.
Blessings on families should be spoken and released: It is not sufficient that we think of blessings in our heart or mind, we need to verbalise it - speak it out. In the Old Testament, we read of the priests speaking out blessings over the people. This was commanded by God. Blessings travel through a vehicle called ‘word’. Words carry spiritual weight in a family. Parents should speak out blessings over their children; children should be respectful to their parents and honour them with their words.
Proverbs 18: 21 - Life and death are in the tongue; those who love it will eat its fruit.
Before passing away from this earth, Jacob called all his twelve children and spoke words of blessings over each one of them. When we go through the 49th chapter of Genesis, we read how Jacob took time to speak blessings over each one of them according to the direction of God. So, it is when we speak that blessings are carried over and manifested in the lives of others.
Ephesians 4: 29 - Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.
Our words define the destiny of our children to a great extent. We should speak about not what we see in our children today, but what we intend them to be in the future - what we want them to turn out to be.
God bless you all!
