Benediction II: Devotion for Thursday April 2, 2020

MY DAILY COVENANT WITH GOD DEVOTIONAL
Devotion for Thursday April 2, 2020
Topic: Benediction II                                       
Text: Numbers 6:25 & 26
The grace and peace of God are indispensable in our daily lives. We cannot truly live well when we lack peace and are not supported by the grace of God. No wonder Jesus declared it in John 15:5. Benediction is one way of asking for God’s favour to rest upon His people.
Benediction conveys hope that God will
1) Bless and protect as we read yesterday,
2) Smile on them – be pleased,
3) Be gracious unto them – be merciful and compassionate,
4) Show his favour towards them (give His approval of His people and
5) Give them peace. When we are praying that God should bless us or other people, we are actually asking God to do these 5 things mentioned above.
For God to bless us and be gracious to us, we should always obey His word, meditate on them (Joshua 1:8 & Psalm 1:1 – 3) and live by them. These are the ways to sustain the blessings of God in our lives.
May God Almighty be gracious to you and grant you His peace now and always, Amen.
Food for Thought: Blessing others is a way to show them love, care and encouragement.
Memory verse: Psalm 67:1
Prayer: God, grant that your grace and peace will not depart from me now and always, Amen.
