Being a Blessing is as Easy as 1-2-3

And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” Genesis 12:3
If you could be a blessing to someone, would you do it? If the answer is yes, then let me tell you that you can do so as easily as 1-2-3. Notice our Scripture reference for today, Genesis 12:3. That is Genesis 1-2-3. Whether another person is near you or far away, the same formula works for being a blessing to them – Genesis 1-2-3.
How does that work? Well, Abraham is the father of Isaac of whose seed it is says in Genesis 22:18, “all the nations of the earth will be blessed.” What “seed” is that? Galatians 3:16 (another easy 3:16 verse to remember) tells us that “that seed is Christ”. So how can we be a blessing to the whole world? We can let them know about Jesus Christ, the seed of Abraham and Isaac, the Son of God, and the Savior of the world. Whether it is the next door neighbor or a person on the other side of the earth, we can bless them by letting them know about Jesus.

Dear Father, Help me share Your blessing with others. Amen.


The Friday Benediction
Until Monday, my friends, may the good God envelop you with His grace; may you prove the common confession of faith, “I believe in the holy Christian church and in the fellowship of the saints”, and may you be enriched with joy and hope as you exercise that confession this weekend.  Amen
