John Hagee Daily Devotional 21st August 2024 – Ephesians 1:3

Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, and every word that he spoke over his two boys became their reality. On his deathbed, Jacob called in his twelve sons to prophetically bless each one. Everything he said came true. His words shaped world history!

Jesus declared to His disciples: “You are the light of the world. You are the salt of the earth.” Here is a wonderful illustration of a prophetic blessing that sculpted the world! When Jesus uttered those words, the disciples were not salt and light. They were selfish and immature.

James and John enlisted their mother to ask Jesus if they both could sit in positions of prominence in His coming kingdom. Peter denied and cursed Jesus three times on the day of His death. Thomas refused to believe that Jesus had risen from the dead until he could place his fingers in the scars in His hands and side. The disciples were a million miles from salt and light on the day Jesus spoke that blessing over them. But after His ascension, they turned the world upside down for Him.

When we speak a prophetic, anointed-by-the-Holy-Spirit blessing over the lives of our children, they will rise to the level of that blessing. The power of the supernatural will sculpt their tomorrows.

Blessing
May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you and give you His peace. May your prayers, ignited by the power of the Holy Spirit, promote your children to new levels of success!
