Beloved, as you are all aware, the Theme for this Holy Ghost Service (January 2021) is: “God Bless You”.
It is a word we hear so often but little seems to understand the importance and significance of the word.
Before our father in the Lord comes forth, I will like to just share with us a bit on God bless you.
Genesis 28: 1-4:
- Isaac called Jacob and blessed him and charged him and said unto him, thou shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.
- Arise, go to Paddanaram, to the house of Betuel, thy mother’s father, and take thee a wife there from the house of Laban, your mother’s brother.
- And God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you that you may be a multitude of people.
- And give you the blessings of Abraham to you and to your descendants with you that you may inherit the land in which you are a stranger, which God gave to Abraham.
And this was Isaac blessing his son – Jacob.
And he mentioned there – As you do that which I have asked you, God bless you.
He is Specific – That’s a father releasing a God bless you to his son.
Numbers 6:22-27;
we see the Lord speak to Moses and say: Speak unto Aaron, thy son, on this wise, you shall bless the children of Israel, saying unto them, the Lord bless you and keep you. The Lord make His Face to shine upon you. Be Gracious unto you. The Lord lift up His countenace unto you, and give thee Peace and you shall put my name upon the children of Israel, and I, will bless them.
You see, there are various things we should understand:
- There is the father’s blessing, and that is a father blessing his children by saying God bless you.
- There is also the Prophet blessing and saying God bless you.
And you see, there are several kinds of God bless you.
There is greeting each other and saying, my brother, God bless you – That is simply compliments; it is a Salutation.
There is another one when the child bless his Parent and says: Daddy, may God bless you.
Okay, that is a Call upon God to bless you.
But you see, there is the one that really matters – Not the Compliment, not the Call but there is a Command, the Decree.
And who can give a decree? It is someone that has the Authority to give a Decree.
Your Biological Parent can give a Decree – God bless you.
But your Spiritual Parent have a Greater Authority to give that Decree – God bless you.
And it is my Prayer Brethren that as our father in the Lord comes forth with a “God Bless You” upon our lives, by His Grace and Mercy, God’s Blessings shall be made manifest upon each and every one of us including those reading now on the Label of DMC in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
When we talk about God’s Blessings, we are talking about releasing something Good into your life.
Saying something Good which is the opposite of a curse which is releasing something evil.
The Bible tells us in James 1:17 – Every Good and Perfect Gift comes from the Father above; the Father of light whom there’s no variableness neither shadow of turning.
So, when we are saying “God Bless You”; we are saying: Lord, from above, release your Gifts upon your children.
Let us understand that Blessing is a “Creative Right”.
Genesis 1:27-28 – God created man and He blessed them and He says be Fruitful, and Multiply, Replenish , Subdue, Dominate.
… It is a “Creative Right”; it is “Covenant Right”.
No wonder God tells us in Galatians 3:13-14 – How by reason of the Covenant, the blessings of Abraham comes to the Gentiles.
.,. It is a Covenant; a “Commanded Right” – When God commands His blessings.
Deuteronomy 28:8
The Lord commands blessings upon thee.
*That is a “Commanded Right”; a “Commanded Blessing”.
You see that also in Psalms 133:3 – The Lord commands blessings.
So, one can be blessed by reason of Yes:
- God has created us.
- We are blessed by reason of His Covenant.
- You are blessed by reason of His Commands His Blessings.
Deuteronomy 28:1-8; the Bible made it clear: As you observe and hearken to certain condition; all these blessings shall come upon thee.
And it is my Prayer my Beloved Brethren that as we hear “God Bless You” from our father in the Lord, benefits from above shall be made manifests in our lives in the Name of Jesus – Amen!
You see, when that “God Bless You” is said, it activates certain things in your life.
For instance, when you hear “God Bless You” from an Authoritative Source – The one that has Authority over you; curses are overruled, you are insulated from curses.
Numbers 22:12; God says to Balaam: Hey, these People are blessed, so they can’t be cursed.
When you hear a “God Bless You”, it insulates you so much so that when someone tries to curse you, it can’t stand.
Why? – Because, there is a Blessing that is insulating you from curses.
Beloved, as we receive that “God Bless You”, any curse that try to fly around you shall not come near you in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
Numbers 23:20 – The Bible says: Thou hast received a commandment of blessing, you have been blessed, it can’t be reversed.
As our daddy in the Lord make that speech of “God Bless You”; Brethren, it shall not be reversed – Amen. You shall move forward in the course of this Year (2021), experience the beauty, the blessings of the Lord in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
And Bible says: No Enchantment, no Divination shall be able to come near you.
… That is by reason of God Bless You .
At times, People gets so challenged when People curse them – A curse without a cause can’t be of any use whatsoever.
The Bible says: It would not even rest upon you.
The New International Version (NIV) Translation of Proverbs 26:2 says: A curse without a cause cannot come to rest.
Brethren, by the Power of God’s Word, as you receive the “God Bless You”, a curse shall not come near your Dwelling Place in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
What does that mean?
You become full of Blessings.
You see that in Deuteronomy 33:23.
As you move forth, you become full of Blessings – You just begin to experience Blessings on every sides.
Why? – Because, you have received the “God Bless You”.
… That’s what happens.
You can also listen to the audio: God Bless You – Pastor Belemina Obunge
The Bible tells us in Genesis 24:34-35 –
Abraham’s servant was speaking about Abraham. And he says: The Lord has blessed my Master greatly. He has become great.
Infact, Abraham was Full of Blessing because he had received that “God Bless You”.
I stand to declare and decree that as we receive the “God Bless You”, you shall be a Custodian – Amen. You shall be Full of Blessings – Amen. When they describe you, they will will say that brother, that sister is blessed whom the Lord has blessed on every sides – Amen.
That shall be your Testimony, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
Oh! Let’s quickly mention that when you receive the “God Bless You”: Curses are overruled, you become a Custodian of Blessings, not just that, being blessed on every sides, you are a Conveyer of Blessings.
The Bible tells us in Genesis 12:2-3.
The Lord says that – Listen to this: I will bless thee, and make thy name great and thou shall be a Blessing that as you go forth, whereever you are, you shall begin to release God’s blessings.
Why, because, you have received.
You can’t give what you don’t have.
But as you received the “God Bless You” today, and also this Year, your life shall be a Blessing to Multitudes – Amen.
The Bible says in thee shall the families of the world be Blessed – Amen.
Through you, your office shall be Blessed – Amen; Your family shall be Blessed – Amen; Your business shall be Blessed – Amen; Your Community shall be Blessed – Amen.
… And they shall shout AMEN. And that is a louder AMEN. Shout a louder AMEN – AMEN.
My Beloved Brethren, let’s ask ourselves, what are the things that happens, when you receive that “God Bless You? What does it mean? What do you connect with?
I will share with you, five (5) Points:
- When you receive the “God Bless You”, you are being connected with the Goodness of God.
We see that in Psalms 128:5 – The Lord bless thee out of Zion, and thou shall see the Good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
*When God blesses you, you will see the Good of Nigeria – Amen. In the midst of COVID or no COVID, in Africa, whereever you are or reading now on the Label of DMC; you will see the Good of that Land – Amen. You will see the Good of America – Amen, you see the Good of Asia – Amen, the Good of Australia – Amen.
… You see the Good of various continents all over the world – Amen.
Why? – Because God’s Blessings are upon you.
I declare that by reason of the “God Bless You” being released unto you today or as you read now on the Label of DMC; Good things shall meet you by Fire in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
People shall begin to manifest Goodness, Goodwill towards you – Amen. Evil shall be far from your Dwelling Place in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
Psalms 21:3 says: The Lord shall meet you with the Blessing of Goodness.
Why? – Because our God Himself is known to be Good.
Psalms 107:8 says: Oh, that men will Praise the Lord for His Goodness.
So when you hear “God Bless You” from an “Authoritative Source”, you grab it – God’s Goodness is released unto you.
I stand to declare, anything evil shall give way for the Goodness of God in your life and you family – In the name of Jesus. Shout a mega Amen – AMEN!
- In the Second (2nd) instance, when you receive a “God Bless You”; you are not just hooking up to the Goodness of God, you are linking up with the Greatness of God.
The Bible tells us that by reason of Abraham receiving that “God Bless You”, the Lord says, in Genesis 12:2 – I will make of thee, a Great Nation; I will bless thee; I will make thy name Great and thou shall be a Blessing.
I stand to declare: The Level you are is the Lowest you shall ever be in life in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
As our father in the Lord comes forth declaring “God Bless You”; Greatness is your Portion – Amen.*
… I declare Greatness is your Portion in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
Why was Ishmael so Great?
Genesis 17:20 – The Bible made us to understand that the Lord said: I will bless him, I will make him fruitful, I will multiply him exceedingly.
… That is by reason of “God Bless You”.
As “God Bless You” is released unto you, Brethren, I stand to declare and decree Greatness – “Unparalleled Greatness” shall be your Portion in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
Psalms 107:13 – He blessed them also and multiply them Greatly.
I stand to declare: You shall be Great; your lives shall be Great, you shall be “Exceedingly Great” in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
The word of God makes it clear of various People that experience Greatness in the land.
I. Isaac, in Genesis 26:12-13 – Because Isaac had been blessed, he sowed in the land and that same Year, he received a hundred fold.
Check that – A hundred fold.
Why? – The Lord has blessed him.
The man waxed great. He went forward, until he became very great – Verse 13. Check that.
Why? – Because the Lord Blessed him.
As our father in the Lord mention that “God Bless You” tonight, and through the course of this Year, you shall wax Great – Amen. You shall grow until you become “Very Great” in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
And let your AMEN be a Great AMEN. Hallelujah – AMEN.
- In the Third (3rd) instance, when you hear that God bless you; linking up with the Goodness, Greatness of God; it also links you up with the Glory of God.
The Word of God tells us in Leviticus 9:23 – That as Moses and Aaron met with the Congregation, they began to bless the People.
The same way our father in the Lord is blessing the People.
The Bible says: As he blessed the People, the Glory of God appeared.
Whereever you are or as you read now on the Label of DMC, as our father in the Lord releases his blessings; the Glory of God shall come upon you – Wherever you are: In your homes, in your bedrooms, in your offices, or reading now on the labels of the DMC; God’s Glory shall be released in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
What happens when God’s Glory is released?
Isaiah 60:1-2 – When God’s Glory is released; you begin to arise, you shine. God’s Light comes forth. Darkness gives way to God’s Glory in your life.
Every Manifestations of darkness that has Prevailed in your life, in your family, in your business, as you receive that “God Bless You” during this Holy Ghost Service (January 2021), darkness shall give way to Light – Amen. You shall begin to experience the Glory of God – Amen.
He who is the Source of Glory – The Almighty God shall release His Glory upon your life – Amen; your Church, shall become a Glorious Church – Amen; your Business, shall become a Glorious Business – Amen; your Life, shall become a Glorious Life – Amen.
Why? – By the reason of the Prophetic, Authoritative “God Bless You”.
- Bretheren, in the Fourth (4th) instance, when a “God Bless You” is declared by an Authoritative Source as our father in the Lord is coming out very soon – When that “God Bless You” is declared by our father in the Lord, by your Prophet; one thing is clear – Apart from Goodness, Greatness, Glory coming forth, Gladness is made Manifest.
The Word of God tells us in Psalms 21:6 – Thou hast made him blessed forever, and has made him Exceedingly Glad.
By the reason of Blessings, the Person became “Exceedingly Glad”.
Bretheren, why is this important?
Proverbs 10:22 – The Bible tells us that the Blessings of the Lord maketh rich and added no sorrow unto it.
So, when you get that “God Bless You” – Sorrow is Out; Blessings, Joy Unspeakable comes forth.
You see, when you see someone rejoicing, dancing, and you are wondering in the midst of a challenging world, you are smiling; it is because the Person have benefited from a “God Bless You” and so he has exhibited Gladness saying even in the midst of these situation, God is working things out for my Good.
I stand to declare to someone that is hearing my voice or reading now on the Label of DMC; that no matter what is happening around you; for you, God is working things out for your Good – Amen.
Your God is will work things out for your Good in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
Gladness, Exceeding Gladness shall be your Portion – Amen.
The Anointing of Gladness!
As the Word of God makes it clear in Hebrew 1:9 – The Anointing of Gladness shall be multiplied upon you – Amen.
I stand to declare, by His Grace and Mercy that as you receive that “God Bless You” tonight, or reading now from the label of the DMC, the Anointing of Gladness shall wipe away sorrow from your life, from your family, from that situation that has brought sorrow is wiped away today in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
Now, bretheren, I’m so excited, because tonight is going to be a Spectacular one and it is already a Great one.
The Word of God says in Psalms 4:7 – Thou has put Gladness in my heart.
… That will be your Testimony – Amen!
Gladness shall spring forth; even before the next seven (7) days – I am confident that there shall be “Outstanding Testimonies” in all your lives in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
The Hope of the Righteous shall be Gladness.
The Bible tells us in Proverb 10:28 – The Bible tells us: Your Hope shall be Gladness.
- Finally, my Beloved Brethren, when that “God Bless You” comes forth – Don’t forget you connect with Goodness, Greatness, Glory, Gladness of God.
When you receive that “God Bless You”, you are connecting with the God’s Nature Himself – Godliness.
It means, you are connecting with the Almighty God, who Himself is Godly.
You are saying: Lord, I want to have you in me.
Check what the Word of God says in Psalms 4:3 – I know that the Lord will Set Apart for Himself, he that is Godly.
You see, when you are living a Life of Godliness, the “God Bless You” is connected – It just comes into your life.
Don’t forget, Psalms 5:12 says: The Lord shall bless the Righteous with Favour.
There is a Group of People when Balaak wanted to curse them. God said they could not be cursed.
Why? – Because they are Blessed.
However, a time came in Number 25:1-3; these same People that God has said they can’t be cursed because they were insulated from curses, went to sin.
They went into sin, they went into world of women. They compromised their destiny and from that time onwards, the Word of God says the anger of God was kindled on them.
A Set of the People that could not be cursed, by reason of compromise, God’s anger came upon them and they were cursed – Their lives became a reproach.
*I want to urge us, as our father in the Lord is coming out; examine your hearts. If you know there are certain things that are not right in your heart, put it right, so that the “God Bless You” shall be made manifest – Amen.
And as you live a Godly life, it shall begin to attract the Blessings of “God Bless You” – Amen.
Because, the Bible says: He shall bless you on every sides. He shall envelope you with Favour.
Psalms 1:1-3 – If you read that Portion, the Bible says:
- Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of ungodly, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sit in the seat of the scornful.
- But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in the law does he meditate day and night.
- And he shall be like tree Planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth his fruit on a Season, his leaf also shall not wither and whatsoever he does shall Prosper
That’s God’s desire concerning uour life.
So, as our father in the Lord declares the “God Bless You”; I am very confident that by His Grace and Mercy, Good Things, Glorious Things, Great Things, Gladness shall be your Portion – Amen.
But these are conditions: Don’t forget “Conditional Blessings” – You must put your ways right this Year.
As we start with the First Holy Ghost Service (January 2021), for the Year 2021; examine yourself if you have been a Failure; if there is anything that could hinder you from experiencing the continuing Joy of “God Bless You”. Make sure that you deal with it today.
It’s an opportunity to reconcile your life with Christ; it’s an opportunity for you to rededicate your life, it’s an opportunity for you to put things right.
The time is not tomorrow, the time is now.
As our father in the Lord will be coming out later, make sure you put things right, now.
And it’s my Prayer that by His Grace and Mercy, that when that hindrance is dealt with; the Blessings of God that maketh rich and added no sorrow shall be multiplied upon your life on every sides, in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
And when People begin to see you operate in such Goodness, such Greatness, such Gladness, because you are living a life of Righteousness; they will ask, who did it? And you will answer: “J E S U S; OH MY GOD – WOW”!
But the time is now for you to reconcile your life with God.
CLOSING PRAYER
It is my Prayer Father, that even as your children reconcile their way, even as they determined to put right, the wrongs in their lives, whatever is a hindrance to their experiencing the Beauty and Blessings of “God Bless You”, that hindrance will be dealt with totally and thoroughly.
That as they go forth through the course of this Year, your Blessings shall be multiplied upon them .
Thank you Father; Thank you Jesus; Thank you Sweet Holy Spirit – For I know that by Your Grace and Mercy, the time for a New Beginning is now.
Blessed be thy Name.
All Glory and Honour be ascribed unto You.
And let somebody say a Mega Amen – AMEN!
BELOVED, I STAND TO SAY: “GOD BLESS YOU”!!!
