How To Be Blessed
[Rick Warren Devotional]
“God bless you.” It’s a phrase you hear all the time. But what does it mean? It’s such a vague generality that most people don’t have the slightest idea what it means to be blessed by God.
A blessing is a sovereign act of God, where he takes someone or something that is normal — and then he supernaturally produces that which is naturally impossible in order to meet your needs.
That’s what you pray when you ask God to bless your family. You’re saying, “God, I want you to bless every area of my family and meet the needs of each of my family members.”
I want you to be blessed by God this year and this decade. In fact, I want you to begin to look at this decade as your Decade of Destiny. If you are going to experience the blessings that God has stored up for you, you need to do two things: you have to ask for them and you have to keep God’s rules.
Psalm 91:1: He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
