A SOURCE OF BLESSING

12/11/2025

"Among the other nations, Judah and Israel became symbols of a cursed nation. But no longer! Now I will rescue you and make you both a symbol and a source of blessing. So don't be afraid. Be strong, and get on with rebuilding the Temple!"

— Zechariah 8:13

The blessing of God is expressed through generosity. Yesterday, we saw that the Lord Jesus said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”  (Acts 20:35).

God blesses us not just so we can enjoy His goodness, but so we can extend His love, His kindness, and His provision to those around us. You are God’s chosen vessel—His channel—for touching lives.

In Genesis 12:2, God told Abram, “I will bless you… so that you will be a blessing.” That same blessing is ours today in Christ (Galatians 3:14). Notice: God didn’t just bless Abraham—He made him a blessing. To be blessed is wonderful; but to be made a blessing is far greater. Being blessed is like having money in the bank. Being made a blessing is like owning the bank. God has made us reservoirs of His goodness, not containers to hoard it. Hallelujah!

Scripture reveals God’s divine order: God made Abraham’s name great so that the blessing could flow through him. Many times, believers try to use God’s blessings to make a name for themselves, instead of using their God-given name to bless others. But Hebrews 11:16 (AMP) reminds us that God is not ashamed to be called our God. Your name is already great—not because of your achievements, but because you bear His name. Therefore, you have nothing to prove and nothing to protect. Simply let the blessing flow.

Zechariah 8:13 again shows God’s heart. He rescued Judah and Israel so that they would become a symbol and a source of blessing. As a symbol, their lives testified of God’s faithfulness. As a source, they became channels through which others experienced the same grace.

Child of God, this is also your calling. You are both a symbol and a source of God’s blessing in your world. Your life is a message. Your generosity is a sermon. Your kindness is an extension of the Father’s heart. You are a conduit of heaven’s resources—spiritual, emotional, and material. Let others see the blessing at work in your life, and let it overflow to them.

Walk with this consciousness today and always.

God bless you.

Faith-Filled Confession

I am a blessing—God’s channel of love, grace, and abundance. I am filled with every spiritual blessing in Christ, and I release these blessings into my life, my home, and everyone connected to me. I shine as a symbol of God’s goodness and flow as a source of His eternal resources. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
