*YOU’RE A BLESSING .*
Tuesday, February 20th .
Pastor Chris
_*Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ (Ephesians 1:3).*_
The mentality the Lord expects us to have isn’t that of those in need of blessings but that of a people blessed beyond measure, to be a blessing. Our opening verse says He’s blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ (Ephesians 1:3), not just so we can enjoy and keep the blessings to ourselves, but so we’ll be a blessing to our world.
In Genesis 12:3, God said, _*“And I will bless them that bless thee....”*_ Part of your heritage as the seed of Abraham is that through you, the nations of the earth shall be blessed.
Take Joseph for an example: The Lord blessed him so much that he became the envy of all his brothers. When his brothers sold him as a slave, he became the manager of his master’s (Potiphar’s) estate.
The Bible specifically records that from the time Potiphar made Joseph the overseer of his house, and of all that he had, the Lord blessed him and his entire household for Joseph’s sake; the blessing of the Lord was upon all that Potiphar had in his house and in the field (Genesis 39:5). Such an amazing reality!
When Joseph was unjustly sent to prison, due to false accusations from his master’s wife, he soon became the head of the prisoners because he was always quick to help others. Furthermore, through his wisdom, the whole Egyptian empire was preserved from severe famine.
As a blessed person, it doesn’t matter what job you do: your prosperity is assured. Even your work is an avenue to bless others. Ephesians 4:28 shows us the reason for work. It says, _*“Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.”*_ He wants you to work, get a job, not so you can make a living or make ends meet, but so you can be a blessing to others as well.
Your job is your opportunity to express the excellence God has deposited within you. There’s so much within you that the world can benefit from. That’s why you must be the best of you, and bless the world with the investment of your personality. Find a need, and reach out to meet it.
*PRAYER*
*My life is for the glory of God. His blessings are evident and working in and through me, and I’m a dispenser of the same. Thank you Father, for the increased ability to positively impact my world as I live gloriously for you, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.*
*FURTHER STUDY:* *||* *Genesis 12:2* And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: *||*
*||* *1 Peter 3:9* Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing. *||*
*||* *1 Peter 2:9 AMPC* But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a dedicated nation, [God’s] own [a]purchased, special people, that you may set forth the wonderful deeds and display the virtues and perfections of Him Who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. *||*

Affirmation,
https://wp.me/p9v28c-KS
I affirm that I am anointed by the Spirit of the Lord for such a time as this. My spirit, soul, and body are under the dominion and influence of the Holy Ghost. I am not an ordinary person; I am an ambassador of the Kingdom of God and a member of the body of Christ here on earth. I am a solution to my world! The Name of Jesus has been given unto me to live by, and with that Name, I reign and rule over the elements of this world. Everywhere I go, the Name of Jesus is working mightily for me. It’s producing great results in everything area of my life. Hallelujah! Though I live in this world, I am conscious that I am from above! He that is from above is above all. I am above the corruptive and negative influence of this physical world. All authority in heaven and on earth, and even beneath the earth has been given unto me because I function in the Name and in the place of Jesus here on earth. Whatever I do or say here on earth is backed up by heaven. Hallelujah! Even as I speak now, angels are dispatch on my behalf, for my favour. Glory to God.
