Thought For Today: Being Conscious That You Are A Blessing

Posted on September 16, 2012 by Christ Embassy Online


And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing… (Genesis 12:2-3).

If you’re born again, you’re more than a blessed man or woman: you’re actually the embodiment of a blessing. The Bible lets us know that the Lord didn’t only bless Abraham but also made him a blessing: “And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing” (Genesis 12:2). However, this didn’t just end with Abraham for the Bible says “…If ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Galatians 3:29). To be in Christ means you’re born again, thus all the blessings God endowed to Abraham are now your present-hour possession. This is why you’re a bundle of blessings!

If the people of the world knew what a blessing you are as a Christian, they’d beat down your doors to get to you. Anybody could receive a miracle from the Lord just by touching a Spirit-filled Christian. And it makes no difference whether the Christian was conscious of it or not. After all, the Lord Jesus wasn’t conscious of the woman with the issue of blood touching Him until she had done so (Mark 5:28-29). He was Himself a blessing, thus all that anyone needed to do was touch Him in faith and receive.

No matter the sickness someone may have for example, he or she could get healed just by touching a Christian in faith. That’s because the Christian is a divine package of blessing! The Christian is the temple of the Holy Ghost (1 Corinthians 3:16); that makes him the embodiment of the fullness of the blessings of God. That’s why it’s a blessing in itself just to meet someone who belongs to Jesus Christ.

Living daily with the consciousness that you’re a blessing will eradicate every sense of need or lack from your life. How could one who is a blessing condescend to the level of requiring aid? How could one who is a blessing suffer with sickness? These things ought not to be. Take time today to meditate on the fact that you’re a divine package of blessing. In you shall all the nations of the earth be blessed because you’re Abraham’s seed. Hallelujah!

What does the Bible say about setting goals?

The Bible offers a balanced approach to setting goals that includes making plans yet doing so with wisdom and humility. Jesus’ illustration of building a tower implies that it is a good thing to have set goals ( Luke 14:28 ). To live with no motivation or planning is not God’s desire.  Proverbs 6:6-11  says, “Go to the ant, O sluggard;     consider her ways, and be wise. Without having any chief,     officer, or ruler, she prepares her bread in summer     and gathers her food in harvest. How long will you lie there, O sluggard?     When will you arise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber,     a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber,     and want like an armed man.” Laziness causes a person to neglect work and fail to exploit the window of opportunity. Summer is the preparation time for winter, and we dare not wile it away. Failure to plan ahead will result in “poverty” and “want.” Wisely setting goals leads to better results: “Th

How do I know if I am a Christian?

Jesus taught that the condition of a person’s heart will manifest itself in his or her behavior: “No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart” ( Luke 6:43–45 ; cf.  Matthew 7:16 ). So, when considering whether or not you are a Christian, you can consider the kind of fruit that is produced in the life of a Christian: 1.  Complete trust in Christ’s death and resurrection as sufficient payment for the debt we owe God.  A Christian is one who  trusts Christ  exclusively. Doubts come when we fear we must add something to the work of Christ to ensure our salvation.  Ephesians 2:8–9  makes it clear that we are not saved by our works, but by God’s grace alone. No matter how righteous we may appear, none of us come close to e
