Decrees Of Blessing For Your LifeSample

Blessed with a Blessed Life

Close your eyes for a moment and imagine yourself literally being overtaken by blessings. A great example of this picture is that of a football player being aggressively tackled to the ground from behind. In this same way, God wants you to be overtaken by blessings.

God is a blessing God, and He wants you blessed beyond measure! You were created to live an extremely blessed life!

The kingdom of heaven is a realm and dimension of blessing, and its atmosphere is love. The Bible teaches much about heaven. It is beautiful and glorious; full of God’s presence, angelic activity, and joy; and absent of pain, sorrow, lack, sickness, and death.

It is God’s desire that in and through Christ we live in this dimension of blessing while on the earth. Jesus taught us to pray in this way: “Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:10).

Throughout the Bible we see God’s full commitment to blessing His people. He declared over New Testament believers that they were blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places and with everything pertaining to life and godliness (Ephesians 1:3; 2 Peter 1:2–4). He truly is a blessing God, and He desires to shower you with blessings so that you will flourish in every area of your life.

I Decree That:

1. I am created for blessing, and as a result I am overtaken by blessings in every area of my life, including my family.

2. I am blessed with victory in every challenge or obstacle I face, for I am the head and not the tail. I am above and not beneath.

3. The Lord has blessed me so that I will be a blessing to others. I cheerfully and bountifully sow blessings into the lives of others, and therefore I reap blessings bountifully.

“Count your blessings—name them one by one!” I remember this song from my childhood. It is a good exercise and discipline to thank the Lord each day for the many blessings He has filled your life with. Focus on these wonderful blessings. Make a list of them as you journal today, and give Him praise.
