Daily Devotional: 7th March “BLESSED”

Date:

READ: Genesis 25:29-34, 27:22-40

And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD hath blessed.” – Isaiah 61:9

Isaiah prophesied that people would be forced to acknowledge you because of the blessing in your life. They would just take one look at you and say, “This is the seed God has blessed.” Blessings are powerful in their very nature. They have inherent powers that affect human life. There is no way to explain human life except you accept that blessings and curses are real. Blessings are a mystical force behind human existence. You will succeed in this life through the blessings that are spoken over your life. When you go to church, you will receive some teachings, you may write some notes and you may learn some good things. But what you really need is the blessing of the Lord.

The first thing that God did for human beings, after He created them, was to bless them. Jacob simply wanted a blessing from his father. Can you imagine two brothers, Jacob and Esau, quarrelling over blessings? They were not quarrelling over money or property. Jacob and Esau were brothers who fought over spoken blessings.

When Isaac discovered that he had mistakenly blessed the wrong person, he simply said, “I have mistakenly made him your lord, I have sustained him with my blessings.”

Jacob received those blessings from his father Isaac. It is those blessings that are sustaining Israel today. It is those blessings that are causing them to have more inventors, scientists and billionaires than any other nation. You will not find any other reason to explain why this group of people are as unusually blessed as they are.
