Genesis
I will make you into a great nation. I will bless you and make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others. [3] I will bless those who bless you and curse those who treat you with contempt. All the families on earth will be blessed through you.”
Genesis
Then he gave the living creatures his blessing-he told the ocean creatures to live everywhere in the ocean and the birds to live everywhere on earth.
Genesis
God gave them his blessing and said: Have a lot of children! Fill the earth with people and bring it under your control. Rule over the fish in the ocean, the birds in the sky, and every animal on the earth.
The Blessing is what everyone is rallying around but we are yet to harness the full blessing God sends on earth.
We have gone ahead to believe many other things has the blessings.
MYTHS OF THE BLESSING:
Genesis
And out of the ground the Lord God made to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight or to be desired-good (suitable, pleasant) for food; the tree of life also in the center of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of [the difference between] good and evil and blessing and calamity.
Genesis
Some time later, the LORD spoke to Abram in a vision and said to him, “Do not be afraid, Abram, for I will protect you, and your reward will be great.” [2] But Abram replied, “O Sovereign LORD, what good are all your blessings when I don’t even have a son? Since you’ve given me no children, Eliezer of Damascus, a servant in my household, will inherit all my wealth. [3] You have given me no descendants of my own, so one of my servants will be my heir.” [4] Then the LORD said to him, “No, your servant will not be your heir, for you will have a son of your own who will be your heir.” [5] Then the LORD took Abram outside and said to him, “Look up into the sky and count the stars if you can. That’s how many descendants you will have!” [6] And Abram believed the LORD, and the LORD counted him as righteous because of his faith. [7] Then the LORD told him, “I am the LORD who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans to give you this land as your possession.” [8] But Abram replied, “O Sovereign LORD, how can I be sure that I will actually possess it?” [9] The LORD told him, “Bring me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon.” [10] So Abram presented all these to him and killed them. Then he cut each animal down the middle and laid the halves side by side; he did not, however, cut the birds in half. [11] Some vultures swooped down to eat the carcasses, but Abram chased them away. [12] As the sun was going down, Abram fell into a deep sleep, and a terrifying darkness came down over him. [13] Then the LORD said to Abram, “You can be sure that your descendants will be strangers in a foreign land, where they will be oppressed as slaves for 400 years. [14] But I will punish the nation that enslaves them, and in the end they will come away with great wealth.

Genesis
And Melchizedek, the king of Salem and a priest of God Most High, brought Abram some bread and wine. [19] Melchizedek blessed Abram with this blessing: “Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth. [20] And blessed be God Most High, who has defeated your enemies for you.” Then Abram gave Melchizedek a tenth of all the goods he had recovered.
