The Father's Blessing: the Body of Christ is Missing out on Something of Great Significance

The Body of Christ is missing out on something of great significance ? The Father?s Blessing. Through surveys in multiple conferences, I?ve found very few persons who have ever received a father?s blessing through their earthly fathers. The father?s blessing is rarely experienced in Christian circles, even though this blessing is strongly mandated in scripture. The absence of the blessing makes way for the curse to lay hold. In other words, the cause for curses in a person?s life may be due to the failure of a father to fulfill his responsibility to bless his child. The power of a blessing is supernatural; it is the presence and work of the Holy Spirit, producing joy, peace, prosperity, fruitfulness; and providing health, success and protection. To be blessed is to be in God?s favor and to have His face to shine upon you. Are you without a father to bless you? Perhaps your father is not a Christian, is deceased or has dropped out of your life. Or, he may not take the initiative to bless you. Do you yearn for a father?s blessing that you?ve never had? Do not despair. It is not too late!
