THE BLESSING OF THE WORD

ANCHOR SCRIPTURE :
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Genesis 1:26-28.

MESSAGE:

It is clear from Scriptures that the Word of God is a custodian of the blessing of God. The blessing of God is packaged in His Word.

In Genesis 1:28, when God released His Word at creation, it impacted the earth with the blessing of God. God cannot bless a person outside His Word.

Now, what does it mean to be blessed by the Word of God?

1. The Word of God empowers people unto progress, prosperity and success. It is the Power in the Word that makes the blessing happen (Ecclesiastes 8:4). Every time the Word comes in contact with you, it empowers you unto fulfillment.
2. The Word of God connects man to his inheritance in God. The Word of God connects you to your Bill of Rights in God. To be disconnected from the Word, therefore, is to be disconnected from your rights or what is yours in God.

Now, how do we receive blessings from the Word of God?

Through the reading of the Word of God

There is blessing in reading of the Word of God. (Revelation 1:1-3). When you read God’s Word, you irrigate your mentality, both spiritually and physically. Reading the Word gives you something to meditate on, and meditation leads to faith and faith fuels relevant positive actions.
