The Power of a Blessing

Scripture

Hebrews 7

7 And without question, the person who has the power to give a blessing is greater than the one who is blessed.

24 But because Jesus lives forever, his priesthood lasts forever. 25 Therefore he is able, once and forever, to save those who come to God through him. He lives forever to intercede with God on their behalf.

Observation

I don't think I ever noticed verse 7 before this morning. “The person how has the power to give a blessing is greater than the one who is blessed”. Have you ever thought of that? You and I have been given the privilege to give out blessings and God will bless those we bless. Imagine the incredible power you and possess. We have the power to bless people.

The writer of Hebrews was demonstrating that Jesus Christ is our High Priest and He is far superior to any other high priest that has ever existed. Melchizedek placed a blessing on Abraham. He was more powerful than Abraham who received the blessing. Don't miss out today on the opportunity to be a blessing to those around you.

Jesus our High Priest has the power to save us and keep us forever because He lives forever to intercede for us!

Application

I will pray blessings on people today that I encounter at church.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You for allowing me the awesome privilege of being able to pray blessings on people knowing that You will bless them. It is a wonderful privilege and responsibility that You have given us that follow Christ. I pray that this day would bring You glory and honor. I pray that Your hand would continue to be on our church. I pray that people would be saved today and lives changed forever!
