I Am Blessed - Now What?

Encouragement for your daily walk with God

Whenever I read a passage where God announces a blessing on someone, I take notice. Why? Well, who doesn’t want God’s blessing in their lives!

But there has to be more to it than just saying, “I’ve been blessed by God.” There must! I think the account of Abraham gives us the needed understanding. The Lord told Abraham, "I will bless you — and you shall be a blessing." 

Now we understand. God has freely blessed each Christ follower so that he/she can be a blessing to others. The Lord has done so much for us. So, in turn, let's share His goodness. And remember this, dear Christ follower; “To whom much is given, much is required!” [Luke 12:48]

I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; And you shall be a blessing. Genesis 12:2
