Jeremiah 17:7 NLT “But blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence.
Ephesians 1:3 NLT All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ.
Galatians 3:14 NLT Through Christ Jesus, God has blessed the Gentiles with the same blessing he promised to Abraham, so that we who are believers might receive the promised Holy Spirit through faith.
In our prayers, we have a habit of saying bless this person or bless that person. That’s nice because we truly want the best for that person, however if that person has made Jesus Christ their Lord and Savior, they’re already blessed.
Before the cross, we see a lot of people in the bible speaking a blessing over someone else. To my knowledge, after the cross, no one is speaking a blessing over anyone. That’s because through Jesus, we’ve been blessed.
We can still speak a blessing over a person’s finances, health, or ministry, but a saved person has already been blessed through the sacrifice of Jesus.
Once again, Jesus’ sacrifice did something that we couldn’t do ourselves. Jesus’ sacrifice blessed us and this blessing is for everyone who believes and it will last forever. Thank God that we are blessed!
