Book of Blessings

The ‘Blesseds’ from God, tumble like spangled stars, flung with generous profusion across the midnight sky.   “Blessed are those who mourn…”  “Blessed are the merciful…”  “Blessed are the meek.”  “Yes – the Bible is a blessed book of blessings, beatitudes, and benedictions:-  “Blessed are the poor in spirit…”  “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness..”  “Blessed are the pure in heart.”

Showers of Blessings

God’s ‘Blessed’s are rays of shining sun – imparting light and warmth. God’s love is a blessed fountain-spring of grace and glory. God’s mercy is poured out in blessed showers of blessings. “Blessed are the peacemakers,..” Matt.5:9. Whenever we see the lovely Lord Jesus, He’s imparting blessings to the needy. His hand reaches out to give a benediction to a sick heart or a sad soul, “Blessed are you who weep now..” Luke 6:21

Width of Blessings

Oh, the wideness is His ‘Blesseds’ are like the span of the universe’ great globe. Now on the children’s heads... now on the leper... now on the sick, now on the dead. His outstretched arms of blessing are ever open to the necessities of others. His Blood, cleansing the lost sinner. His Word, healing the hurting heart. Yet, to the bond-slaves of the Lord  (to his messengers and disciples) His ‘Blesseds’ come in strange packages which required steadfast trust.

The Blessed Hope

The hope of those, 'blesseds' of the Lord, is beyond the present, physical world, – His blessed blessings reach deep into the love-heart of Himself. – His Blessed hope stretches forward to the coming kingdom. “This Blessed Hope” is in a Person – the One upon Whom all hope rests… “…the appearing of the glory of our great God and Saviour – Jesus Christ.” Titus 2:13  “Blessed is that servant whom his master will find so doing when He comes.” Luke 24:43  “Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb” Rev.19:9  “Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life and that they may enter the city by the gates.” Rev 22:14
