Numbers 6:24-26
“May the LORD bless you and protect you. May the LORD smile on you and be gracious to you. May the LORD show you His favor and give you His peace.”
What an awesome blessing! It’s packed with every kind of blessing to help us get through any type of day we may be having! It also shows a little more of God’s character!
BLESS
PROTECT
SMILE
GRACIOUS
FAVOR
PEACE
Anything we are experiencing is covered in this blessing!
If we also read verses 6:22, 23 and 27 we can learn even more how much God wants to show us His blessing.
vs 22 “Then the LORD said to Moses, vs 23, “Tell Aaron and his sons to bless the people of Israel with this special blessing…” vs. 27. “Whenever Aaron and his sons bless the people of Israel in My name, I Myself will bless them.”
So, what if we model our prayers with this blessing? We can pray it over ourselves, our families, our friends – God said He Himself will bless them. Praying God’s word is powerful – so when we have a special blessing like this – we should use it!
May the LORD bless my husband, may He bless each of my family members, may He bless each one of my friends. I pray that the LORD will protect all those whom I love and cherish. May the LORD smile on each and every one of them. I pray that God’s GRACE would be noticeable in each of their lives. God show your favor on them, help them through their day. And God, I pray, give them your Peace when they most need it. Amen.
I really think these verses speak for themselves. What an honor it is to speak blessings over one another.
Thank You Father for blessing me. Thank you for protecting me. My life shines when You Smile on me. Thank you for being gracious to me. Thank You Father for showing me Your favor.
All these things and your peace give me Joy that completely fills my heart!
In Your wonderful, awesome, Almighty Name… I pray for these things not only for myself, but for all those that I dearly love.
~AMEN~
