Blessing: You Shall Inherit the Earth if you are meek
Today is the third blessing from the Sermon on the Mount. Lindsey, I bless you as you strive to remain meek for then you will inherit the earth.
Good Morning Heavenly Father. Thank you for language. Thank you for our minds to use language to communicate. Thank you for those who understand more than one language and are able to translate from one to another for us. And thank you for the basis of today’s blessing for your daughter based on the scripture where Jesus said:
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. (Matthew 5:5)
Also … we remember that Jesus himself was meek (also see the definition below):
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. (Matthew 11:29)
Lord, it’s me again. I am here before you again. As usual, every day, I come before you on behalf of your daughter Lindsey who loves you. And today I am here to bless her. Lindsey, I bless you as you strive to remain meek, just as Jesus was, for then you will inherit the earth! I pray that you will have all the qualities of meekness. I pray that you will remain mild of temper, soft, gentle and not easily provoked. I pray that you will remain humble and not proud. I pray all this in the name of Christ Jesus, King of kings who we give all the glory! Amen

Blessing: Rejoice, Be Filled and Leap For Joy
Lindsey, the next nine blessings are straight from Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount! This first one I take from Luke’s account, the rest I take from Matthew’s account. Today I have several blessings for you. Yes! Be blessed, Lindsey, when you are poor. Be blessed Lindsey when you hunger. Be blessed when you weep for you shall laugh. Be blessed when those around you mock you, insult you, hate you or exclude you because you are following Jesus. In those times rejoice and leap for joy! Your reward is great in heaven Lindsey.
Heavenly Father, good morning. Thank you for another day with you. Thank you for being with me now and throughout the night. Thank you for guiding me each day. And thank you for the scripture where Jesus said to those who were following him:
And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh. Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake. Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets. (Luke 6:20-23)
Lord, it’s me again. I so look forward to coming here to sit with you on behalf of your daughter you love. And today it seems like there is another special blessing that you have for her. And so, Lindsey, this day I say that you are blessed. God blesses you when you are poor, hungry or crying for you shall laugh, rejoice and jump for joy. When you see people insulting you or mocking you or excluding you because you publicly tell about Jesus and your God, remember that is also how the ancient prophets were treated. Look up at those times and consider your coming reward in heaven. I bless you in the name of Jesus, who we will give all the glory to. The glory is all yours Lord. Amen (more…)
Blessing: Choose! A Blessing or a Curse
Lindsey, today’s blessing is right from Deuteronomy and you are offered a choice. Choose well. Behold, set before you is a blessing and a curse. Obey the Lord’s commandments and receive his gracious blessing. Or disobey his commandments and turn aside from his way and face his curse. Choose life. Choose the blessing Lindsey!
Good Morning Heavenly Father! Thank you for kindness. Your unending kindness! Kindness that others show to me. Kindness that I show to others. Thank you for the affect that unexpected kindness has on people. And thank you for the scripture to use for blessing your daughter today.
Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you this day: And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the Lord your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known. (Deuteronomy 11:26-28)
Lord, I’m here again. I am fasting and praying for your daughter you love and ask that you both heal her and let her hear you clearly. And now, Lindsey, I refer to a choice that is set before you. Behold, set before you is a blessing and a curse. You have a choice. Obey the Lord and he will shower his gracious blessings upon you. Turn aside from God’s path and face his curse. Choose life Lindsey! Choose to be blessed! And we can both give glory to the Lord. All the glory is his. I pray this in the name of Christ Jesus, King of kings. Amen (more…)

Heavenly Father, good morning! I welcome another day surrounded by your creation. I just saw an interesting documentary on the Monarch butterfly which migrates from Canada to Mexico and back, and the experts were wondering how they can navigate to precisely the right place and the right time (as well as how they can even make that LONG trip at all). And so I thank you for the beautiful butterflies that you created for us enjoy! And thank you also for the scripture that I am to use to bless your daughter today:
O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. (Psalm 34:8)
