Pastor David shares Wednesday in Dickinson.

  1. Blessing and Favor: (Psalm 145:16 [AMPC])
    1. The Open Hand of God always denotes blessing and favor. Blessing, and favor

      1. Blessing: 

        1. Genesis 12:1-2 (AMPC)

          Now [in Haran] the Lord said to Abram, Go for yourself [for your own advantage ] away from your country, from your relatives and your father’s house, to the land that I will show you. And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you [with abundant increase of favors] and make your name famous and distinguished, and you will be a blessing [dispensing good to others]. 

        2. Galatians 3:14 (NKJV) that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

          • The Open Hand of God brings blessing and favor. We are blessed with the blessing of Abraham! 

          • Abraham was blessed with abundance in his relationship with God, in his family, in his possessions, and through all of these three things, the entire world was blessed because of Him. 

            • We are blessed for two reasons: 

              1. 1 Timothy 6:17 So we can enjoy what God has given us

                • 1 Timothy 6:17 (NKJV) Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy.

                • 1 Timothy 6:18-19  So we can be a blessing to others

                  • 1 Timothy 6:18-19 (NKJV) Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share, [19] storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

                  • “Blesssing” is from the word “Eulogia” (where we get our word “Eulogy.” it means “Good speaking… invocation of good” (Mounce). You could say, “A good word.” It also means “  “Of God: 4a) to cause to prosper, to make happy, to bestow blessings on 4b) favoured of God, blessed” (Thayer)

                  • 2 Corinthians 13:1 The Word must have a witness! You cannot stand on the Word without it bearing witness within you

                    • Bear witness:

                      Romans 8:16  The Holy Spirit bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God
                      1 John 5:7 The Father, the Word, and the Spirit. They are in perfect unity, and they must agree!

                    • 2 Corinthians 4:13 we believe, and belief always has a voice. Use your voice of faith!

                    • Romans 10:9 No matter the promise, no matter the surety, no matter the debt that was paid in full, if we believe but do not confess. Every word from God, every blessing that He speaks, every promise, MUST be spoken by both you and God in order for it to be established in your life. What you speak, you establish!


                      2 Corinthians 13:1 (NKJV) This will be the third time I am coming to you. "BY THE MOUTH OF TWO OR THREE WITNESSES EVERY WORD SHALL BE ESTABLISHED."

                    • James 3:3-12 (MSG), Deuteronomy 30:19
