2018-03-06 (TUE) Want To Bless Others?

Day 65 Bible Reading: Numbers 6-7, Mark 12:38-44, Psalm 49 and Proverb 10:27-28 Link opens new window 

In our everyday lives we meet, greet, and chat with our friends, neighbours, and co-workers. These may be brief moments and the conversation is quick and easy. In this brief encounter, we may never know what is going on in their lives but we have an opportunity to speak life and blessing upon our friends and loved ones. When the Lord told Moses to address the priesthood with this blessing, we understand the force and divine impartation of this sacred verse. This is not a typical cultural saying or traditional pleasantry phrase, but it is a divinely granted blessing from heaven above to the recipient. Why not bless someone today and let God do His work?

"The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 'Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, Thus you shall bless the people of Israel: you shall say to them, The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace. 'So shall they put my name upon the people of Israel, and I will bless them.'" – Numbers 6:22-27 ‭‬‭(English Standard Version)

"This day, Lord, let me be a channel of spoken blessing upon someone’s life. You know every heart and life circumstance of those I will meet today. May Your words bring life and blessing to those You send my way. Amen."
