The
Blessing is More Powerful!
We are blessed to be a blessing! We are to proclaim the blessing of the Lord
over our families, churches, cities and nations. Proclaim His goodness and
invoke His blessing over every sphere of delegated rule He has put in your life!
I was given a dream revealing to me the power of declaring His blessings. Light
was being released over people and cities as they proclaimed the blessing of
God's Word. People began to be healed without anyone touching them as darkness
was displaced by light. I had this dream repeatedly and I knew it dealt with the
power of proclaiming God's blessing. Yes, the power of the blessing is more
powerful than the power of the curse!
Defining Our Terms
From Webster's Dictionary:
To Bless: To invoke divine favor on, to bestow happiness, prosperity or
good things of all kinds; to make a pronouncement holy; to consecrate, to
glorify for the benefits received, to extol for Excellencies.
A Blessing: A prayer or solemn wish imploring happiness upon another; a
benediction or blessing; the act of pronouncing a benediction or blessing; that
which promotes prosperity and welfare . . .
From the Hebrew Language:
To Bless: Barak – To kneel by implication to bless God as an act of
adoration, to praise, salute, thanks . . . a posture of reverence . . .
A Blessing: Berakah – Benediction (an act of invoking a blessing).
The Nature of the Blessing
1. Pronounced audibly (can be written as well)
2. Continue on in time – generation to generation
3. Usually are not just individual, but family oriented
The following definition is true concerning the nature of both curses and
blessings:
A word spoken with some particular form of spiritual power and authority for
good or evil that sets in motion something that will probably go on from
generation to generation. (By Derek Prince)
Examples of Generational Blessings from Scripture
1. From God Directly to Abraham:
Read Genesis 12:2, 3
2. From Melchizedek in Behalf of God:
Read Genesis 14:18 – 20
3. Transfer of the Generational Blessing:
Read Genesis 25: 9 – 11
4. Stolen Birthright by Jacob from Esau:
Read Genesis 27:27 – 29
5. Patriarchal Blessing from Israel to the 12 Tribes:
Read Genesis 49:28
Five Steps to Invoke the Blessing
According to Gary Smalley and John Trent as stated in their excellent book
The Blessing – there are five clear steps to invoking a Blessing!
1. Meaningful Touch
Touch imparts and releases life, warmth, compassion and blessing.
2. A Spoken Word
After meaningful touch comes a word of loving affirmation.
3. Attaching High Value to the One Being Blessed
Esteem, give honor, and value to another. Declare Life!
4. Picturing a Special Future
Envision God's destiny for individuals, churches and cities. Impart hope!
5. An Active Commitment
Empower others with a practical commitment. Get behind them!
Seven Areas of Blessings We Can Each Tap Into!
1. Biblical Promises
Search out God's promises for your life in His Word! The Bible is full of
"blessing" with you in mind! Exercise faith and declare your Biblical Promises.
2. Family Genealogy
Ask the Lord for help as you redemptively look at your family history. What is
the family blessing that you are to call forth and pass on?
3. Ethnic Background
What is your ethnic background? Call for the redemptive gift of God for each
tribe and honor the Lord with the gifts He has generationally bestowed!
4. Church Promises
What is your church background? Call forth the "fire" of John Wesley; the purity
of the Quakers; the power of the Pentecostals; the evangelical anointing of the
Baptist; the prayer of the Moravians, etc.
5. Geographic Region – City, State, Nation
What did the founding fathers of your city or state declare and write about your
region? What is the redemptive purpose of your city? Were there previous
revivals? Call the blessings into being once again!
6. The Meaning of Your Name
What does your name mean? Why did your parents give you that name? Call forth
the characteristics and prophetic purposes of your name.
7. Personal Prophetic Words
Have there been any gifts of the Spirit vocalized over your life? What has God
spoken over you and your family? What promises has the Holy Spirit spoken to
you? What blessing does God have waiting for you to fulfill?
Proclaim His Word Over Your Life!
From Numbers 6:24 – 27
The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make His
face to shine upon you, and be gracious to you. The Lord lift up His countenance
on you, and give you peace.
From Psalms 103:1 – 5
Bless the Lord, O my Soul, and all that is within me
bless His holy name. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget none of His benefits;
who pardons all your iniquities; who heals all your diseases; who redeems your
life from the pit; who crowns you with loving-kindness and compassion; who
satisfies your years with good things, so that your youth is renewed like an
eagle.

Join Jim Goll on an exciting and
insightful journey into the visionary world of "The Seer"!
The prophetic movements in church
history and in contemporary life are fed by two mighty streams: the prophet, whose
revelation is primarily verbal, and the seer, whose revelation is more visionary
in nature. While the role of the prophet is familiar, less is known about the seer
dimension. To many people, these visionary prophets remain mysterious, other-worldly,
and even strange.
Knowledge dispels misunderstanding. Join author Jim W. Goll on an exciting and insightful
journey into this lesser-known dimension -- the visionary world of the seer. You
will discover the prophetic power of dreams, visions, and life under the open heavens.
How does visionary revelation "happen"? Can it be trusted? Where does it fit into
the life of the church today? Can any believer become a seer, or is this a prophetic
dimension reserved for the specially-gifted?
The Seer will move your heart and stir up your hunger for intimacy with God,
because "the seer's goal is to reveal the man Christ Jesus!"

"Relentless
Generational Blessings"
by Arthur Burk
$15.00 Book
|
| |
|
|
In the last decade, there has been
significant new teaching on the art of blessing as well as great revelation
about the menace of generational curses. The truths in this book on generational
blessings occupy a niche between those other two concepts. We not only inherit a
toxic waste dump we do not deserve (our generational curses) but we also inherit
a gold mine that we have not earned (our generational blessings).
Part one of the book deals with the existing trust fund of blessings.
- What are generational blessings?
- Why do they skip some generations?
- How can someone with godless ancestors have generational blessings?
- How are the accrued blessings released into a given generation?
Part two of the book shows how we can accrue additional blessings for our
children so they have more to draw from than we did. Life is not like a Monopoly
game where we get $200 every time we go past "Go." A person can be quite devout
in their spiritual walk and quite obedient to God without actually accruing many
blessings for subsequent generations.
There is, however, a broad cross section of behaviors, which flow from a single
very specific mindset that allows any generation to create a wider and deeper
stream of generational blessings for their children and grandchildren than they
had. We can take the activities we are already involved in and modify them
slightly so that they are not only accomplishing their original purpose, but
they are also accruing blessings for our offspring so that they have more to
draw from than we had.

"Decree"
by Patricia King
$16.00 CD
|
| |
|
|
"Decree a thing and it shall be established." -Job 22:28
The Word of God is mighty and powerful and is well able to profoundly influence
your life! When you receive Christ as your personal Savior, you enter into an
eternal and unbreakable covenant with God. At that time, all of His promises are
available to you, if you receive them by faith.
When declarations of the Word are proclaimed over you, the Word is then
activated to strengthen your spirit man and to prepare you for an intimate
relationship with Him, and for every good Kingdom work. His word does not return
void, but accomplishes everything that it is sent to do.
