A BLESSING
Genesis 12:1-9
Devotional Verse: -“I will make you a great nation; I will bless you And make your name great; And you shall be a blessing” (V. 2)
God made every person to be a blessing on the earth. To be a blessing on earth is to be used by God to strengthen, build and help others out of trouble. It is to encourage others and be a solution to their problems. When people get involved in serving the Lord, they become a blessing to their generation (Isaiah 60:15)
When God asked Abraham to depart from his family to another place, He promised that He will make him a blessing. God has blessed every man, but it is only when we serve Him that we become a blessing. In this world, it is either a man is a blessing or a burden. So, choosing to serve the Lord in all you do is a choice to be a blessing.
Friend, your involvement in the service of God makes you a blessing to others. This turns you to a person of value. This makes you a desire of all the people around. A man can only be a blessing when he is sowing the seed of blessing which is through service. That is why service enlist you in the school of greatness (Mark 10:44-45). Only the people who love to be a solution will find enough blessing of the Lord. Peace!
PRAYER: Lord, make me a vessel of blessing to my generation
“A LIFE IS EITHER A BLESSING OR A BURDEN”
