Genesis 12:2
“I will make you into a great nation,
and I will bless you;
I will make your name great,
and you will be a blessing.
Ephesians 1:3
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.
A great example of the blessing of God to His people is Abraham. God blessed this man tremendously because of His faith and trust in the Lord and in the coming Messiah. Through faith, God continues to bless His people. All true blessings have their source in God alone so we must seek Him as the only One Who has the power to give us what we need.
The greatest blessing ever given by God to a human being is the blessing of salvation, eternal life, going to heaven, missing hell, and receiving all the benefits of a Child of God (Ephesians 1:3).
Another blessing from God is given when you obey Him. John 13:17 says, “If you know these things, happy are you if you do them” (KJV). Obedience always, always, always brings the blessing of God. If you want God’s blessing, obey Him! The blessings come in the form of peace and joy. It never fails. God wants to bless you and He most often does it through obedience to His Word.
