The blessing in Numbers 6 reveals the heart of God and His desire to bless, keep, and bring peace to His people. As followers of Jesus, we are called to live in the opposite spirit by choosing blessing over cursing and forgiveness over bitterness. Blessing our offenders is not based on feelings, but a heart posture that asks for God’s best in their lives. Through the power of God, forgiveness becomes spiritual warfare that overcomes evil with good, releases bitterness from our hearts, and places others into the transforming hands of Jesus.
