Today I feel a need not to pray for you to know when an opportunity presents itself so you can offer blessings.
I pray for you to have eyes to see where you can be a light. I pray for you to be full of openness to follow the Holy Spirit's promptings to bless. I pray for you to bless those who curse you. I pray for you to bless those who desire to do harm to you and say all kinds of evil against you. I pray for you to be full of love towards those who hurt and have hurt those you love. I pray for you to not have a hard heart against those who can be called your enemies but that you would do what the Word of God says which is to bless. Amen...
Bless in the original Greek means to praise or speak well of. Today I prayed for my family who has been victims steming all the way back to Hiltler and Nazi Germany. I prayed freedom for my family. I prayed for forgiveness to flow freely and words of blessing to come for anyone who hurts us when there is nothing we could do. We don't need to keep having a victim type of stronghold in the family blood line but we can start to over come evil with good and it starts with the BLESSING!
Really appreciate this today. Read it and it rang true for me personally right now. Just walked through freedom to forgive a very painful part of my past that has defined me for years and effected my heart toward PEOPLE in general so forgiveness is very connected to blessing and helping others in my mind. Lovely. Your blog is a beautiful calling!
