Numbers 6:22-24 (NKJV)
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
“Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘This is the way you shall bless the children of Israel. Say to them:
“The Lord bless you and keep you.
Sade: what is the secret of your success in life.
Amara: it is because I consciously walk in the blessing of God.
Sade: But I too am blessed by God. Why am I not succeeding like you?
Amara: I don’t only believe that I am blessed, I say so every morning when I wake and expect to see the blessing manifest in the day, so I see it.
Even though the children of Israel were already blessed as descendants of Abraham, and It was also clearly stated to them that those who obeyed the laws of God were blessed because of that (see Deut 28:2-13), the Lord still found it necessary to instruct the priests to pronounce the blessing over them. This was to be done regularly.
God did this because in order for them to walk in the blessing, they had to be conscious that they were blessed. Each time they heard the priests pronounce the blessing over them, it reminded them that they were blessed and empowered them to walk in the blessing. This ultimately created in them a culture of superiority. Even today, the agnostic Jew still believes that he is better than others.
You need to be reminded regularly that you are blessed so that you will always walk with the blessed man’s mentality. This mindset is the attitude that empowers you to walk in the blessing. Many Christians do not walk in the Blessing because they don’t have this mindset.
It is a very good habit to wake up in the morning and say scriptures that remind you how blessed you are.
Go into today expecting things to work in your favor because you are blessed.
Ask the Lord to deliver you from every insecurity and inferiority complex.
