[Seeds of Destiny 18 February 2019 Devotional]

The Blessing of God carries the force of exemption; exemption from negative circumstances or situations. One of the things the blessing of God does to the blessed is that it makes their case to be different from those of others in the land.

SCRIPTURE: Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him. Genesis 26:12

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: To be blessed is to be exempted from the negative situations of life.

The Blessing of God carries the force of exemption; exemption from negative circumstances or situations. One of the things the blessing of God does to the blessed is that it makes their case to be different from those of others in the land. When a common calamity befalls everyone in the land, the blessed are exempted. This was what happened to Isaac in Genesis 26; while there was famine in the land, he was richly blessed by God with abundant harvest.

This implies that when people around you are being confronted with negative situations like chronic singleness, barrenness, poverty, stagnation, failure, premature deaths, etc., your case is different because you are a carrier of God’s Blessing.

Sometime ago, I met a young man who came from an idolatrous family; almost everyone was a native doctor in his family. He tried every effort to go to the university but it was not possible. I prayed for him and that limitation was broken by the power of the Blessing. He went on to study Accounting in the university. That was what no one in his family has ever achieved.

Beloved, the Blessing carries an exemption power; to be blessed is to be exempted from the negative situations of life; to be blessed is to be exempted from generational curses and ancestral limitations. A blessed person is not a victim of evil. Abraham was exempted from the ancestral limitation of his family by the power of the Blessing (Genesis 12:1-5).

My counsel is, press into God until He blesses you.

Remember this: To be blessed is to be exempted from the negative situations of life.
