TOPIC: THE UNREVERSED BLESSING (Lesson One - Father's Day Edition)
TEXT: GENESIS 27:24-30
MEDITATION
"Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee." (Genesis 27:29).
Men Have The Authority To bless And To Curse
Isaac as a father wanted to bless his first son before passing. The day was set for the blessing.
What Is a Blessing?
A blessing is some kind of divine or supernatural aid, or reward.
A pronouncement invoking divine aid.
Who Can Bless Or Curse?
Anyone can bless or curse, but apart from God, man has the potent force when it comes to blessing or cursing.
Man is the product of God.
"Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, to be like us. Let them be masters over the fish in the ocean, the birds that fly, the livestock, everything that crawls on the earth, and over the earth itself!” (Genesis 1:26).
"So the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground, breathed life into his lungs, and the man became a living being." (Genesis 2:7).
And the woman is the product of man.
*"Later, the LORD God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make the woman to be an authority corresponding to him.”*
*So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to overshadow the man. When the man was asleep, he removed one of the man’s ribs and closed up the flesh where it had been.*
*Then the LORD God formed the rib that he had taken from the man into a woman and brought her to the man.*
*So the man exclaimed, “At last!* *This is bone from my bones and flesh from my flesh. This one will be called ‘Woman,’ because she was taken from Man.” (Genesis 2:18, 21-23).*
So man has the authority to bless and to curse. Just like God, man has every power and authority to exercise on earth.
Man draws his authority from God and the woman's authority is from man.
So even though everyone can bless and curse, man's blessings and curses carry power. So men, be careful how you open your mouths.
Isaac and Rebecca brought forth the two children, but Isaac had the authority to bless and not Rebecca.
Men, check your children's behaviours, you may be the cause. Because your words can change their behaviours, either positively or negatively.
In the text, we will consider two aspects. We shall discuss it tomorrow.
