Throughout the Bible—from creation, to Abraham, to David, to Paul's prayers for the Church—we witness the ability of a blessing to express God's will for his people. When God's people affirm his own promises and act in obedience, he listens. In his strength, love, and faithfulness, those promises are more than words. They become reality, the tangible evidence of his power in our lives. We can participate in that power. As we bless our church, our family, our friends, our leaders, and even our enemies, God gives us the privilege of partnering with him to bring about his will.
The Scriptures in this book, taken from The Message, give us the words to bless one another in everyday language. In speaking these blessings, praying them, meditating on them, and living them, you will find the realities around you changed—and your own heart changed as well
