One Beautiful Moment

Words are powerful. Throughout the Bible, words of blessing abound as a means of transferring identity, purpose, wealth, power and a favorable future from the speaker to the hearer. From God's words to Adam and Eve to the blessings of the patriarchs, from the Aaronic blessing to many of the Psalms, words of blessing are a fundamental part of the way God has designed our reality.
Words of blessing are a different thing. Different from narrative or history; different even from prayer. Words of blessing are supernatural. They convey, one person to another, divine wealth and life. They forecast our futures and inspire a day's worth of hope.
In our modern desert of outrage and cynicism, words of blessing serve as an oasis to the weary. I have served as a pastor for several decades now, and have observed the power of a timely benediction.
Receive these words of blessing, inspired from the Bible, as a spark of encouragement for your day. Receive them with faith and with the giddy notion that this day might just be a little different.
May these words be a conduit of divine wealth, life and encouragement into the garden of your heart.
