Can you imagine how Moses must have felt?

The first time he tried to help his people he ended up on the backside of the desert.

Talk about discouragement . . .Moses had every reason to be discouraged.

He was going to change the world! He was going to create a better environment for his people!

Moses was going to make a difference!  But instead he was rejected by his people. . .exiled from power and lost his position of prominence.

Life as Moses had known it . . .was over

The first 40 years of his life, Moses had been somebody.

For the next forty years of his life, he was a nobody.

I like that word “but” because when it’s applied to God’s wisdom and plan for future events. . .it means you may be going through stuff. . .you may be disappointed or depressed BUT GOD … that’s right . . . BUT GOD will come through for you.

Our Heavenly Father is faithful to perform what He has promised.

No doubt Moses spent many days leaning on a shepherd’s rod. . .thinking about what could have been. . .thinking there was no way. . .his life would amount to very much again.

But God led Moses to a burning bush which changed him from being a wilderness shepherd into a statesman and a deliverer.

Some time ago, I was meditating on God’s Word. . .when three words came to my mind.

BLESSED, BROKEN and MULTIPLIED

The Lord directed me to start searching in His word. As He directed, I began looking.

The first thing He said was. . .let my children know that I want them “BLESSED.”

What does it mean in the natural to be “blessed?”  According to the Roget’s New Millennium Thesaurus” the word blessed has 24 entries:  as a noun, a verb and an adjective.  To be blessed in the human sense is to be:

“happy, blissful, contented, fortunate, joyful, redeemed, saved, welcome, commendable, to be privileged, to possess, to not be in lack, need or want and to be favored.”

In the context of this teaching, the word blessed will mean to not be in lack and to be favored.

The very first thing that God said to Adam and Eve was not. . .

go to church every Sunday,  

read your Bible, pray or support world missions although all of these are wonderful. 

The first thing He said is found in Genesis 1:22:

“And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.”

Have you had someone say “bless you” after you sneezed?  That’s nice but let me tell you what’s spectacular.

In Genesis 12:3 our Heavenly Father explains what His blessing means:
