I was reading this in a daily devotional book I have, "30 Thoughts for Victorious Living."

Declare Blessing

"Say to them, may the Lord bless you and protect you.  May the Lord smile upon you and be gracious to you.  May the Lord show you His favor and give you His peace." Numbers 6:23-26

"A blessing is not a blessing until it is declared!  So today, declare a blessing over yourself and others.  Speak that blessing in the name of Jesus!  Declare you are blessed with God's supernatural wisdom and receive clear direction for your life.  Declare today that you are blessed with creativity, courage, talent and abundance.  You are blessed with a strong will, self-control and self-discipline.  You are blessed with a great family, good friends, good health, faith, favor and fulfillment.  You are blessed with success, supernatural strength, promotion and divine protection.  You are blessed with a compassionate heart and a positive outlook on life.  Declare that any curse or negative word that's ever been spoken over you is broken right now in the name of Jesus.  Declare that everything you put your hand to is going too prosper and succeed!  Declare it today and ever day (Deuteronomy 28:1-14)!"

Prayer for Today:
"Precious Father, thank You for speaking blessings over my life in Your Word.  Thank You for equipping me with everything that I need to be successful.  Teach me to consistently believe in and declare Your blessings over my life and the lives of those around me."

This was taken from Day 11 of Joel Osteen's "30 Thoughts for Victorious Living"
