God's Bible Promises




I have been writing about blessings for the past few posts.  However, last week I came across an excellent source of Bible Promises.  These are promises that we can also bless others with or claim for ourselves to change our mindset... or way of thinking.  I didn't write them.  I found it on my cell phone while looking up additional blessings to bestow upon my wonderful husband.  It is provided through Bible Study Tools.  I hope you will use them because they are a great way to overcome obstacles in life!

Bible Verses on God's Promises

God's Word is filled with promises from our Creator to provide and deliver. The Bible is the ultimate source for truth and God is faithful to fulfill all his promises. As your read these Bible verses about the promises of God, claim them over your life! Freedom from addictions, deliverance from sin and evil, financial provision, hope for lost and hurting family and friends, overcoming depression, recovering a marriage, good health, healing, being free from fear and anxiety, strength, and many more are the blessings and gifts that God promises to provide for those who believe in him.

Memorize the following Scriptures that promise to overcome what you are facing today. Pray over them and speak them out loud and you will being to see God move in your life for his glory and your good!

Blessings! Part 2


I enjoyed sharing the last set of blessings that I came across in the first "Blessing" blog.  Previously, I mentioned the importance of blessing your husband, wife, and/or children each morning as a positive affirmation for them to strengthen them in their walk with the Lord and also to set the Lord's blessings upon them by speaking it into their existence.

This morning, as I was doing my devotions in dealing with unity, I came across additional excellent blessings that I just had to write down to prepare to bless over my husband this week.  I wanted to share this with you as well.  In blessing those we love, we are praying over them, utilizing Christ's name and the promises in the Bible to speak good things in their life.  Sometimes, to just hear someone blessing you helps you to know that you have someone who is a part of your support system, in that they are wanting what is good in your life.  When you have someone bless you, it helps you to know that they care about you, your life, and what you are going through and that they desire better for you.  It causes a closer unity and a tighter knit.  When you are blessing them in Christ's name, you are praying over them.

As my husband and I was at a couple's retreat for the day, we were sharing things in our lives and the effects that they have on us.  My husband shared the fact that I bless him every single morning, after we have already prayed together, as he is heading out the door.  He says that he looks forward to those blessings now, that it makes a difference in his life for the better.  I love my husband dearly and praise God every morning for the gift of my husband and who he is in the Lord.  So, I do pray over him, but I also speak blessings over him that I expect will be fulfilled by God since they are in His word and are promises in the Bible.  God cannot lie.

The devil is a deceiver, a liar, and loves causing divisions in families.  This is a way that the family can bless one another instead of being used by the devil in cursing one another.  It is a way that can help bring more unity to the family because as you speak the blessings over your loves ones, it is causing a closer knit in your heart for that person as well.  It not only changes the atmosphere around you, but it changes the atmosphere inside of you, in your mind and in your heart and in your spirit.  Below are the new set of blessings for you to pray over your loved ones.  I've changed it only to make it as if you are saying it to the person directly.

List of Blessings:

*  Ps. 112:2A - May your descendants be powerful in the land.
