The Blessing - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]
The song The Blessing by Elevation Worship is a beautiful reminder of the Lord’s love and protection. The lyrics are based on the Bible verse Numbers 6:24-26 which says, “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.” This verse is a reminder of God’s promise to be with us and to bless us.
The song goes on to remind us that God’s favor is upon us and our families for a thousand generations. This is a reminder of God’s faithfulness and His promise to never leave us or forsake us. Deuteronomy 7:9 says, “Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations.”
The song also reminds us that God’s presence is with us always. He is with us in the morning, evening, coming, going, weeping, and rejoicing. This is a reminder of God’s promise to never leave us or forsake us. Deuteronomy 31:6 says, “Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.”
The Blessing is a beautiful reminder of God’s love and protection. He is with us always and His favor is upon us and our families for a thousand generations. May we always remember His faithfulness and His promise to never leave us or forsake us.
