Listen to this story where God surprises beautiful Joan with healing when she was not expecting it! Check out how heaven comes to earth:
Let’s do this
Amazed? Surprised? Thankful? Moved? Wow, how the God of the universe met Joan in that moment of praying a simple blessing, with the ringing of angelic choirs in her ears celebrating what God had done. I don’t know about you, but I get undone by Jesus, our miracle worker.
What about starting blessing your family, community, schools, local churches and neighbours with the love of Jesus.. sit back and watch what happens before your eyes! We have had local people wander in our church building and meet with Jesus after we started to pray a blessing on our local community; coincidence I ask? - I think not!
The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.
Numbers 6:24-26
RISE Blessing
We would love to end by the RISE team praying a blessing over you, it’s only 2 minutes, take a deep breath and receive this in, being open to whatever God wants to highlight and bless in you.
Rise Blessing
The blessings of the Lord be upon you and I release blessing over you in the name of Jesus, that you may know how precious you are as the Father runs towards you, arms wide open as he calls you by name.
I bless you that your heart will be able to receive the Fathers embrace and his indescribable, unconditional love
JUST. FOR. YOU.
Daughter. Chosen. Adored.
I bless you that you may know, and understand Gods, abundant, limitless grace that He gives freely, which we cannot possibly earn or deserve.
I bless you that you may know completely that HE always makes a way, that your faith will increase as you draw near to Him, and you will pray BIG prayers and believe for BIG outcomes.
I bless you in Jesus’ name that you will be captivated by his splendour, power, and beauty, and as you behold the name of Jesus, your heart and mind will be utterly transformed.
I bless you in the name of Jesus, that you may live a life of freedom, free of shame, free of fear, chains of addiction broken. I bless you that you will be quick to extinguish lies, declare truth and know miraculous breakthrough as you lift up His name in worship.
I bless you that you may encounter his presence each day and reveal his heart and love to those around you bringing heaven to earth.
I bless you in the name of Jesus that you may know healing and restoration and that you will know His faithfulness and see him at work in your family and friends, neighbours and colleagues.
I Bless you, that you will know His refuge and strength as he hides you in the shelter of His wing. He is your safe place and your strong hold.
I bless you in the name of Jesus that your life will be full of joy and peace, as you bask in His goodness and know his refreshment and rest.
