Numbers chapter 6, verses 24 through 26.

The Lord bless you and keep you.

The Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you.

The Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace what an awesome prayer of blessing

this is what the priests would pray over God's people and it's picked up at different points

in scripture one of my favorite Psalms, Psalm 67, basically recounts this.

May God be gracious to you and bless you and cause his face to shine upon you so that his ways

may be known on earth and his saving power known among all nations. You just think about

this picture of God blessing us, keeping us, holding on to us, causing his face to shine

upon us. Just get that image in your mind for the God of the universe to cause his face to shine

to smile upon you in your life, his favor to be yours, his grace to be

yours, which makes obvious sense because we don't deserve this from God, from the Holy God

of the universe, in light of our sinfulness and rebellion against him for his face to be

shining on us that is pure unadulterated grace mercy for the Lord to lift up his countenance upon us and

give us peace so i just want to pray this blessing over you today. As you're listening

to this, I want to pray for this for you, even as I pray for this for my own life, for my family,

for co-laborers around me, for brothers and sisters in the church I'm a part of.

I just want to pray this over you and pray that it would be a reality so that God's name and

glory and goodness and grace might indeed shine through your life today.

So I pray this, may God bless you in every way, not just physically,

but spiritually, relationally, emotionally with a joy and satisfaction in him that supersedes even physical circumstances,
