  John 10:10 – “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”             In our study of the Scriptures, we learn that God desires to bless His children. Proverbs 10:22 says, “The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, and He adds no sorrow with it.” A blessed life will be an abundant life. To be blessed “speaks of our inner state of well-being, the prosperity of our souls in Christ. Blessedness comes from unhindered fellowship with God the Father through our Lord Jesus.

Hebrews 6:14 – “saying, “Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you.”                   In a recent time of prayer, the Lord instructed me to declare the word better over every part of my life. I have been decreeing and declaring better over my family, my finances, my ministry, and every part of my life. My prayer for you today is better.             God has the best for us.
