Blessed be the name of the Lord. Happy Wednesday.

Our devotion today is called, ” He will bless us ” Psalm 115:12-13 says, The LORD has been mindful of us; He will bless us; He will bless the house of Israel: He will bless the house of Aaron, He will bless those who fear the LORD, Both small and great. What does it mean for God to bless us? In Matthew 5:1-11 we have what is called the Beatitudes. Starting off with verse 3, blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. To be blessed is to be happy but it is much more than that because happiness comes and goes. To be blessed is finding out what this thing called life is all about and that happens when we come to know Jesus. Jesus brings us to a place of contentment. 1st Timothy 6:6 says, Now godliness with contentment is great gain. So when God says He will bless those who fear Him, He is saying He will give them the peace that surpasses all understanding, Philippians 4:7, and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. He will bless us when we fear Him. A healthy fear is a good thing when we are surrounded by so much evil!

Have a blessed day, continue to pray for all we’ve mentioned please, and always remember that Jesus loves you!
