Words of Encouragement
Men be encouraged God's word says much about you. As the heads of our homes you are anointed with many blessings. Deuteronomy 28 speaks of the blessings of obedience to Him. As husbands, fathers, brothers and leaders it is important to know what your inheritance is in God. As an heir of the Father every good thing is yours. It is encouraging to see families blessed because the man of the home has a revelation of who he is and what God has promised. These blessings will go on for a thousand generations. How awesome to be the vehicle for generations to be blessed. Following are a couple of scriptures to believe for your lives.

Deuteronomy 28:1-14  If you will only obey the LORD your God, by diligently observing all his commandments that I am commanding you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth; all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the LORD your God:  Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the field.  Blessed shall be the fruit of your womb, the fruit of your ground, and the fruit of your livestock, both the increase of your cattle and the issue of your flock.  Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.  Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out.  The LORD will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before you; they shall come out against you one way, and flee before you seven ways.  The LORD will command the blessing upon you in your barns, and in all that you undertake; he will bless you in the land that the LORD your God is giving you.  The LORD will establish you as his holy people, as he has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the LORD your God and walk in his ways.  All the peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the LORD, and they shall be afraid of you.  The LORD will make you abound in prosperity, in the fruit of your womb, in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground in the land that the LORD swore to your ancestors to give you. The LORD will open for you his rich storehouse, the heavens, to give the rain of your land in its season and to bless all your undertakings. You will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow.  The LORD will make you the head, and not the tail; you shall be only at the top, and not at the bottom--if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I am commanding you today, by diligently observing them,  and if you do not turn aside from any of the words that I am commanding you today, either to the right or to the left, following other gods to serve them.

Psalms 112:1-3  Praise the LORD! Happy are those who fear the LORD, who greatly delight in his commandments. Their descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.  Wealth and riches are in their houses, and their righteousness endures forever.


Psalms 1:1-6  Happy are those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or take the path that sinners tread, or sit in the seat of scoffers;  but their delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law they meditate day and night.  They are like trees planted by streams of water, which yield their fruit in its season, and their leaves do not wither. In all that they do, they prosper. The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;  for the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
