A Blessing To You...

Psalm 20 is a prayer of blessing...speaking well of and over another. James 4 tells us that words are powerful and they can be used for blessing or cursing. I think I'd rather be found blessing! Read, receive and be blessed....

May the Lord answer you in the day of your trouble. O that you would know that Jehovah sees you, knows you, hears you and will answer you at any time that life's events have disturbed your peace.

May the name of the God of Jacob set you securely on high! What rest comes when we are settled and convinced that the expanse of God's ability, power and resources is readily available and keeps our feet planted. Our lives will be characterized by an unshakable stability.

May He send you help from His sanctuary and support you from Zion! Just think...God has myriads of angels that carry out His directives. We know that He dispatches them to us as they are needed [...for the angel of the Lord encamps round about those who fear Him...and rescues them Ps 34:7]. They are sent to work in our behalf and to support us.

May He remember all your meal offerings, and find your burnt offering acceptable. Would He ever forget any investment, act of faith and love or deeds of service properly rendered for Him and His Kingdom, and not reward it? Why of course not! May He multiply to you the dividends that He has promised to those who choose to honor and please Him.


May He grant you your heart's desire and fulfill all your counsel [the purposes to which God has assigned you]. What joy there is in knowing that the desires that He has placed in your heart, the purpose to which He has called you, will indeed be accomplished.
And...

May the Lord fulfill all your petitions...for He saves and answers...by the strength of his right hand. Some may boast in chariots, others in horses; but we will boast in the name of the Lord. It is God who is at work in you both to will and do of his good pleasure.

May the Lord bless you, make you victorious, overcomers by His glorious provision and heaven sent support.

Thankful for you...
