Scripture:

So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
(Romans 10:17 NKJV)

Devotion:

God is a God of love, and His desire is for you to be abundantly blessed. He wants you to have everything in His Word that belongs to you. The Blessing of the Lord is designed to give you your inheritance and to take back everything the enemy has stolen from you. The Blessing will fix whatever may be broken in your life, but for it to operate, faith is a requirement.

Faith is the currency of the kingdom and anything you receive—including The Blessing—must be received by faith. It takes faith to be saved, faith to be healed, and faith to access anything else you need or desire from God.

We have been taught to have faith in the Name of Jesus. The Bible says, “that at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow in heaven and on earth…” (Philippians 2:10 TLB).

We also have been taught to have faith in the blood of Jesus. Remember when the children of Israel had to put the blood from a sacrificial lamb on the doorpost and then the death angel passed over?

The Blessing operates by faith and by speaking the Word of God. God has given you a Word for anything you may need or desire in your life. If we meditate on His Word, say and do what God’s Word says, then God will do for us what He promised.

Now it is time to have faith in The Blessing!

Prayer:

Father, I have faith in the Name of Your Son, Jesus, and I have faith in His shed blood. I have faith in Your Word, and now I receive faith in The Blessing that You have abundantly provided for Your children. I praise You, Lord! In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
