You Are Blessed!


When the children of Israel had been in the wilderness for 40 years, long after they had left Egypt for the Promised Land, God gave Moses two lists. One was THE BLESSING of obedience (Deuteronomy 28:1-14), and one was the curses of disobedience (Deuteronomy 28:15-68). Because of what Jesus bought and paid for us with His blood, THE BLESSING of obedience is ours – as well as everything else in the Word of God – when we receive it by faith.

Moses told the people, “If you fully obey the LORD your God and carefully keep all his commands that I am giving you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations of the world. You will experience all these blessings if you obey the LORD your God” (verses 1-2).

Anywhere we see God’s promises for our well-being in His Word, they are ours to receive. And throughout the Word, there are multitudes of promises covering our spiritual lives, health, resources, relationships and future. In other words, there are blessings we can all be walking in if we will receive them by faith.

Consider the following Scriptures. The first group is part of what Moses read to the Israelites in Deuteronomy 28. The second group is from other places in God’s Word. Meditate on them all until you know that you know You Are Blessed! Declare them over your life by faith and watch them come to pass.
