BLESSING EXPLAINED- If you can't Help/Give, you ain't Blessed!
Blessing and honor with Glory and Praise to the CEO of Heaven and Earth. The one science marvels at his works, the only one who was, who is to come. The only one all religion accepts the Supremercy of his Being, Jehovah!
Blessing is from God, and no one can discuss this delicate issue without refrencing the Acient one. Being blessed has so many connotations besides having Gold and Silver.
A vogue word people use this days in Public gathering and Social platforms to boast about their achievement and at the same time trying to remain humble- Blessing!
Generally, having a successful life, a healthy body, financial independent, a successful marriage, good kids, life void of circumstances are good examples of a blessed life. But the extraordinary blessing comes from refrencing all this achievement to your maker without crediting yourself nor your strenght/wisdom and erasing every form of self Righteousness.
Taking 3 key examples to illustrate a blessed Life and After life
Abraham
Here is a very typical example of blessing in life and death. Also called "Ibrahim" in Islam. For his unshakeable undescribeable faith, he was blessed beyond human knowledge and became the father of many nations.
A noteble figure both in Islam and Christianity as his blessing Transcendence to Isaac and Jacob(Isreal). After his death, he is also remembered for his Faith, a name that would never be irrelevant in the history of mankind.
David
Another example of extraordinary blessing is David the King. He is referred to as the Greatest King ever leaveth because he was a man After God's heart.
...I have found David son of Jesse, a man after my own heart- Acts 13:22b
He was blessed and so is his offspring to the extent of being a lineage to Christ Jesus!
Solomon
Because of David's blessings, his son "King Solomon" became the Richest and the Wisest man on earth during his reign and after.
Wisdom is one of the greatest Blessings any man would desire, and he got it making him the Richest King in the Old-Testament.
Giving and Helping, the measure of Blessing in Mordern day
Some great Philantropist existed in present days. Not the ones that gives charity to boost their public image, this individuals value humanity after their own lives anf their families.
One example is Paul Allen- A man who used his 20 Billion USD fortune to preserve the Earth and keep humans alive/safe from Enviromental degradedation; that is an example of out of this world Blessing!
Connie Nielsen, a Danish actress is another great example of living a blessed life. She helped one of Africa's poorest Citizens to become Self sufficient.
Gbenga and Aisha Oyebode; are another blessed couple with a grand plan to empower African Women; Supporting Arts.
This few examples are classical definitions of Blessing, if you are rich but never make an impact in Someone else life; then you ain't blessed- Because nobody had felt your Blessings!
