Download or read book Double Blessing written by Mark Batterson and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God doesn't bless us to raise our standard of living. God blesses us to raise our standard of giving, and that's where true joy is found. The New York Times bestselling author of Chase the Lion challenges us not to settle for half of what God offers when it comes to blessings—we are BLESSED to BLESS. His discovery started with a simple experiment. Whenever Batterson received a blessing, he would give a similar blessing away. If someone paid him a compliment or gave him a gift or went out of their way to help him, he would return the favor by doing something similar for someone else. We flip the blessing by blessing others in the way God has blessed us. That’s how the blessing becomes a double blessing. It turns giving into a game—one we can’t win because God will always outgive us! It’s an ancient truth found within the Abrahamic covenant: “I will bless you . . . and you will be a blessing.” In other words, we are blessed to bless. The first blessing is receiving, but it doesn’t end there. The second blessing is giving it away! That’s the double blessing. And that’s where double joy is found. In a day and age where the idea of blessing has been reduced to a hashtag (#blessed), Batterson challenges readers to pursue true, God-glorifying blessing and experience an exponential impact by participating in the double blessing. Don’t settle for half of what God offers. Discover how you can both get it and give it . . . in Double Blessing.

Download or read book The Power of Spoken Blessings written by Bill Gothard and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2008-12-30 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how verbal blessings can change and restore difficult relationships, highlighting the great power of the living God to work in our daily lives. The spoken blessing is a powerful spiritual weapon with enduring impact. By giving spoken blessings, we can see healing brought to aching souls and restoration brought to bruised relationships. Such wonders are accomplished by the power of God’s Spirit through the agency of spoken blessings, just as Scripture affirms: "Death and life are in the power of the tongue." Our words have the power to crush or to heal, to break bones or to plant a tree of life where none has grown before. And these dynamics of the spoken blessing may be truer today than ever. Mr. Gothard’s timely message brings this awareness to us in a helpful and encouraging way. “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” Proverbs 18:21 What if spoken blessings could grant freedom from years of bitter hurts? What if they could break down the walls that divide husband from wife, parent from child, and friend from friend? Our words have lasting impact not only for harm, but also for great good. By speaking blessings, we can help bring healing to aching souls and restoration to bruised relationships. Let Bill Gothard share with you the secret of spoken blessings, and embark on a rich family tradition that brings harmony and closeness beyond anything you’ve previously experienced. Story Behind the Book While dealing with layer after layer of hurts, fears, and barriers that teenagers experience with their parents and God, I often heard cruel statements by a parent during a time of anger. Statements like “I wish you were never born” or “You’ll never amount to anything” were like deadly poison affecting everything in that teenager’s life. Such is the power of a verbal curse. However, more powerful have been the verbal blessings of a parent to a son or daughter. They have been like sources of refreshment and energy that have guided the goals and decisions of those who received them. With such lasting results from the life-and-death power of the tongue, it was essential to me that this book be written.

Download or read book Double Blessing Tuesday written by Patricia Brosnahan and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-02-18 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genesis 1:9–13 speaks of God’s creation of the third day. In these verses, God uses the word good two times. The only day in which he used that word more than once. The third day would be Tuesday on the Western (Gregorian) calendar. According to Jewish tradition, that is a double blessing day. In fact, many traditional Jewish weddings are held on Tuesday because of the double blessing. Years ago, a women’s bible study taught by Patricia had to be held on Tuesdays because it was the only day available. The class was immediately a blessed class. When learning of the double blessing of Tuesday, it soon became the logo for the class. Such a blessing that God gave to the small group of believers—Double Blessing Tuesday.

There are things the enemy has snatched from your life, but God desires to give them back to you in double-double capacity. He desires to bless you so hugely that there is massive overflow in your life. Believe God not just for restoration but for a double portion. We often fight fiercely for what the enemy has stolen. But what if for every attack, you got back double? Can you imagine your finances doubling, your joy doubling, your health doubling, and your prophetic insight and wisdom doubling? The Power of the Double encourages the people of God to believe for "double-double" restoration. Instead of shame or guilt, poverty or lack, or anything negative the enemy has thrown at us, we can set our faith for a double portion. Ryan LeStrange challenges you to expect double-double increase and restoration for your family and future generations.
