My mood while writing this blog: Ok

Blessings Are Coming Your Way

Today's Scripture

“May the Lord, the God of your fathers, increase you a thousand times and bless you as he has promised” (Deuteronomy 1:11 NIV).

Today's Word from Joel and Victoria

God wants to release favor and blessing in your life. He longs to be good to you. He has blessings in store for you simply because someone in your family line honored Him. It may have been a parent or grandparent, or maybe someone back in your history that you don’t even know; but because they lived a life of faith, now you are going to reap the rewards. It may have been a hundred years ago, but God wants to increase you a thousand times over your ancestors. These are ancestral blessings. When you have those moments when you feel like you’ve received “favor out of nowhere” that’s the time to thank God for His grace and mercy. Thank Him for His promise to pass down blessings from generation to generation.

Remember, we serve a gracious and mighty God. His favor lasts a lifetime! Open your heart and begin to expect Him to move in your life. Look for His blessings and praise Him for taking you into the abundant life He has prepared for you!

A Prayer for Today

Father in heaven, thank You for Your faithfulness in my life. I give you honor and glory today for all you have done for me and for the good plans you have prepared for my future. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
