Immersed in the Blessing pt3 – From Disaster To Paradise—The Power of the Blessing to Fix It.

Immersed pt3—From Disaster To Paradise—The Power of the Blessing to Fix It.

[Gen 9:1, 16 NASB95]

The destruction Noah saw was devastating. It was caused by curse as a result of sin. God gave him something to reverse the results of the destruction.

God gave Noah the blessing.

What is the blessing? What does it do? How can we access it?

God’s blessing empowers a person to experience the reversal of the destruction caused by the curse and it is released/realized by faith through obedience and words.

God’s blessing empowers a person.

God blesses Noah.

[Pro 10:22 NASB95]

Meaning over definition. (Kneeling?) (God blesses his people when he bestows on them some gift temporal or spiritual. Easton Bible Dictionary)

It is a force. (There is a pronoun “hu” not an article.)

What happens when it comes? Deuteronomy 28.

To experience the reversal of the destruction.

God wants Noah to experience the reversal of the destruction.

[Gal 3:13-14 NASB95]

God intends to reverse every curse and fix every broken thing. That is the point of the blessing with Noah and his sons in Genesis 9!

The same is true for us!

Caused by the curse.

The destruction was caused by the curse that resulted from sin.

The curse is caused by Satan and sin.

[Gen 2:17 NASB95]

[Gen 3:17-19 NASB95]

The curse has effects

[Deu 28:25, 30-32, 48, 60-61, 63 NASB95]

Defeat, failure, nothing works. 25

Broken family. 30

Poverty. 48

Sickness. 60

Broken relationship with God. 63

We are redeemed!

It (the blessing) is released/realized by faith through obedience and words.

Noah had to hear the blessing and live it out.

The blessing is ours now potentially. We have to realized it to experience it. [Eph 1:17-18 NASB95]

Faith is how we access anything from God. [Heb 11:6 NASB95]

Faith has works. [Jas 2:26 NASB95]

Obedience. [Deu 30:19 NASB95]

Words. Isaiah 65:16 AMPC – “So [it shall be] that he who invokes a blessing on himself in the land shall do so by saying, May the God of truth and fidelity [the Amen] bless me; and he who takes an oath in the land shall swear by the God of truth and faithfulness to His promises [the Amen], because the former troubles are forgotten and because they are hidden from My eyes.”

God turns destruction into paradise by His power through promise.

God’s blessing empowers a person to experience the reversal of the destruction caused by the curse and it is released/realized by faith through obedience and words.

Immersed in the Blessing pt2 – The Importance of the Blessing

Immersed pt2—The Importance of the Blessing

[Gal 3:13-14 NASB95]

Is the blessing a big deal? Jesus died so we can live in the blessing of God.

The fact that Jesus died so we can walk in the blessing makes it important.

What makes the blessing so important?

Here are four truths that make the blessing important.

The importance of the blessing starts with the removal of the curse.

The curse of the law is found in many places. One of those places is Deuteronomy 28.

The curse involves:

The Lord will be against them. V.20

Finances and materials. V.38-40

Defeat. V.25

Sickness. V.58-61

Family brokenness. V.53-57

The importance of the blessing gives us access to the blessing of Abraham.

The blessing of Abraham

Relationship with God. [Jas 2:23 NASB95]

Financial prosperity. [Gen 13:2 NASB95]

Victory over your enemies. [Gen 14:14-16 NASB95]

Physical healing. [Rom 4:17-21 NASB95]

Wholeness in family relationships. [Gen 17:7-9 NASB95]

The importance of the blessing results in us receiving the promise of the Spirit.

God wants to empower us with His Spirit.

This is fulfilled in two places:

Regeneration. [Jhn 20:22 NASB95]

Spirit baptism. [Act 2:1-4 NASB95]

God desires to be with us through His Spirit.

The importance of the blessing is accessed by faith.

Believe that God’s blessing on you makes you increase.

God desires for you to prosper. [Deu 8:18 NASB95]

Believe for increase.

Believe that God’s blessing on you is for the earth today. Gen. 1:26-28

Jesus affirmed it now. [Mat 6:10 NASB95]

Paul spoke of it now. [Rom 8:19 NASB95]

This earth has been given to us. [Psa 115:16 NASB95]

Start expecting the blessing to work while we occupy the earth.

Make this a daily confession.

[Heb 4:14 NASB95]

JFB: As the genitive follows, the literal, sense is, “Let us take hold of our profession,” that is, of the faith and hope which are subjects of our profession and confession.

Jesus, as High Priest, takes our confession before God. The Psalmist declared these things as a confession of faith.

Meditate on these truths.

[Psa 119:15 NASB95]

There is power when we meditate on truths from God’s Word.

March against the enemy with these truths.

[Eph 6:17 NASB95]

Word of God = rhema of God = a thing spoke…a promise… utterance

The Word coming out of your mouth is a weapon against the enemy.

The importance of the blessing is found in the fact that Jesus died so that by faith in Him, we can be redeemed from the curse, walk in the blessings like Abraham did, receive the Holy Spirit.

Immersed in the Blessing pt1 – The Blessing on You

Immersed in the Blessing pt1—The Blessing on You

[Gen 1:26-28 NASB95] 26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” 27 God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. 28 God blessed them; and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”

For the next 21 Days and beyond, we will immerse ourselves in the blessing.

What is the blessing? In short, the blessing of God was the first thing to happen to humanity. It is the original state of humanity. We will see it passed down to Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and beyond.

Paul talked about the blessing in Galatians 3:13-14.

We see God’s original intent for humanity in Genesis 1. The blessing on you is still God’s intent today.

What can we learn about God's blessing on humanity from Gen. 1:26-28?

Here are three truths about God’s blessing on humanity from Gen. 1:26-28.

God’s blessing on you is authority. V. 26-28

God gave authority to Jesus. [Eph 1:18-23 NASB95]

We are seated with Christ in authority. [Eph 2:1-7 NASB95]

Robert Morris

Humility [Luk 10:19-20 NASB95]

Faith [Mat 8:8-10 NASB95]

Obedience [Jas 4:7 NASB95]

Use the delegated authority God has blessed you with in prayer and faith.
