Praying the Blessings

Have you ever read a promise in the Bible and wondered how it could ever come to pass in your life? You don't really believe God will do those kinds of things for us? Well, I do because THE BLESSING of Deuteronomy 28 is our blessing! It has “come upon us” through Jesus. All we have to do is connect with it like Abraham did, it will do for us what it’s always done. If we’ll fill our anointed minds with it by meditating on those verses and speaking them over ourselves until we are fully persuaded, no matter how impossible our circumstances might appear to be, that blessing belongs to us. It will do for us the same thing it once did for Adam, Eve…and Abraham…and Jesus. It will empower us to be fruitful, multiply and have dominion in every area of life.

Some folks think that’s too good to be true. They claim we can never enjoy that kind of blessing on this earth. But I know we can, not only because the Bible says so but because He has proven it in my own life again and again. Some folks think that’s too good to be true. They claim we can never enjoy that kind of blessing on this earth. But I know we can, not only because the Bible says so but because He has proven it in my own life again and again and I will continually believe these promises despite what I face or am challenged with:

"Your towns and your fields will be blessed. Your children and your crops will be blessed. The offspring of your herds and flocks will be blessed. Your fruit baskets and breadboards will be blessed. Wherever you go and whatever you do, you will be blessed. The Lord will conquer your enemies when they attack you. They will attack you from one direction, but they will scatter from you in seven! The Lord will guarantee a blessing on everything you do and will fill your storehouses with grain. The Lord your God will bless you in the land he is giving you.  “If you obey the commands of the Lord your God and walk in his ways, the Lord will establish you as his holy people as he swore he would do. Then all the nations of the world will see that you are a people claimed by the Lord, and they will stand in awe of you. “The Lord will give you prosperity in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you, blessing you with many children, numerous livestock, and abundant crops. The Lord will send rain at the proper time from his rich treasury in the heavens and will bless all the work you do. You will lend to many nations, but you will never need to borrow from them." (Deuteronomy 28:3-12)

And these promises are mine and yours if we just do the following:

"If you listen to these commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you today, and if you carefully obey them, the Lord will make you the head and not the tail, and you will always be on top and never at the bottom. You must not turn away from any of the commands I am giving you today, nor follow after other gods and worship them." 
(Deuteronomy 28:13-14)

It's that simple. Obedience + Faith = Blessings!

Intercessory Prayer

Father, I come to You in the Name of Jesus, my Lord, my Savior. I come to You with a heart of thanksgiving. I thank you for all the good things in my life,  for You are the Creator of all things good. Father, I thank You for Your Presence. For in Your Presence is the fullness of my joy and in Your Presence I am complete and whole. In Your Presence I have purpose. Because of Your Presence, I am glad to be here. Father, I thank You for Your plan, that I might have a full life and enjoy it and have it in abundance to overflowing. Father, I thank You for Your provision, that all my needs are met according to Your riches in glory and that I may prosper in all areas of my life as my soul prospers. Father, I thank You for Your protection, that Your perfect love casteth out all fear and that no weapon formed against me shall prosper. Father, I thank You for Your peace. The peace that passes all understanding. The peace that keeps me calm and secure through adversity. The peace that leads me through all the storms that come into my life. Father, thank You for my life and Your Presence in it. 

Today, I pray Your promises of blessings upon me, my family and my house on this day. I choose to be pleasing to you Lord as I know you enjoy my fellowship. According to your word, I am highly favored and more than able to receive Your abundant provision. I dispatch Your angels around me and my family to the right hand and on my left. They shall guide me! God's goodness and mercy shall follow close behind me. You have already determined that I shall have good success if I move in faith and in strong courage.  Dear Lord,   keep me and my family safely under Your wings. I declare this day that I am protected and delivered from the evil of the day. I shall not stumble or fall for the Holy Spirit has anointed my eyes to see clearly and has given me ears of the spirit to hear precisely.  Psalm 23 says, You shall restore my soul and give me rest in the stillness and quietness by the quiet stream. My soul will rest in Your shalom.  I will eat the fruit of Your promises in the land of the living according to Deuteronomy 28 and I will enjoy long life and length of days because I fully trust in You, Lord my God. I speak over my mind right now, Holy Spirit you shall birth a creative and powerful mind and give me sound ideas that will bring me promotion and great favor. Father, You shall give me a fresh anointing and bless my works with good results. Father, I deny and come against any spirit that is not like you and would make me disobedient to your commandments. You Lord will be pleased with me and have placed Your name upon my forehead. I call upon You now and I ask that You will show me great and mighty things I know not of. I decree and declare these things in Jesus' Name…AMEN!
