<p>Joshua Boyd<br/><br/>On this Father’s Day, we are grateful for our dads – those who are dads in our church and all of our dads. God designed marriage and the family to be an image of His relationship with us. We are His children when we believe and trust in Him. He becomes our Father at that moment of salvation. </p><p>God used Abraham, because of Abraham’s faith, to bring two families on earth: the Jews and the people of faith. Abraham is the father of the Jews and the father of faith. God blessed Abraham and through him, blessed all of the families on earth. </p><p>Genesis 12:2-3</p><p><em>I will make you a great nation;<br/> I will bless you<br/> And make your name great;<br/> And you shall be a blessing.<br/> 3 I will bless those who bless you,<br/> And I will curse him who curses you;<br/> And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”</em></p><p>And we learned last time that as we put our faith in Christ, according to Galatians 3:9, we become part of the descendants of Abraham, not as Jews but as children of faith! </p><p>Galatians 3:9 gives us a valuable truth: </p><p><em>So all who put their faith in Christ share the same blessing Abraham received because of his faith.</em></p><p>The blessing that God places on Abraham is yours and mine to share when we have our faith, our trust, in Christ. This means that we can be fruitful and multiply. It means that those who bless us will be bless and those who curse us will be cursed. </p><p>Let me speak to the dads today. We have a unique position in our family. Biblically, we are the spiritual leader, the spiritual head of the family, and as such we have great responsibility to the Lord. </p><p>One of those responsibilities is speaking blessings over your family. </p>

<p>Joshua Boyd<br/><br/>Deuteronomy 8:18 CJB</p><p><em>No, you are to remember Adonai your God, because it is he who is giving you the power to get wealth, in order to confirm his covenant, which he swore to your ancestors, as is happening even today.</em></p><p>We’ve been using this verse as our key verse for the series and I want to dive into it more today. There is an element in this verse that defines how God wants to interact with his children and that then becomes a template for how we should interact with our kids. </p><p>That element is the blessing. While there is no mention of the word “blessing” in this verse, one of the definitions of the word is: “the power to get wealth”. Other translations say “the power to make wealth” or “power to produce wealth”. </p><p>Most of us today don’t think about the power in the blessing. We have reduced the word “blessing” to saying a prayer over our food or saying “God bless you” when someone sneezes. </p><p>The act of blessing someone to the Hebrews, means much more than offering a kind word. It is an empowerment and an act of respect. The root of the word means “to kneel”. When we bless the Lord, we are showing Him the respect He deserves and humbling ourselves before Him. It is an acknowledgement of the source. </p><p>When God blesses someone or something, He is initiating the power and strength to accomplish the end result. </p>
