May God Almighty bless you and make you fruitful and multiply you until you become a community, giving you and those around you the blessing given to Abraham. By this, you may take possession of the land within you and overcome the enemies that seek to attack your soul through the appetites and weaknesses of the flesh and the desires of the carnal mind. In this manner, the land may be cleansed and the kingdom of God may be established in preparation for Him to abide and rule therein. Genesis 28

May you walk in the heavenly wisdom of God, doing what pleases your Father, as Jacob did, and not in the carnal wisdom of man, merely not doing what displeases your Father, as Esau did. Genesis 28

May you know that although God directs you to a given place and speaks to you, through dreams or visions, by the Word or the Spirit, that the house of God and the gate of heaven is Christ within you. His promise of the Spirit to go with you and watch over you, not leaving you until He has done what He has promised you is true wherever you are. He longs to dwell within you, and sends His Spirit to prepare your heart and mind to abide with Him in fellowship, and He with you. Genesis 28

May you be willing to be a tradition-breaker who steps outside of custom and habit to express the love of God and meet the needs that are present when the routine is not sufficient to reveal the depth of the Father's grace and mercy. Genesis 29

May you gaze upon the beauty of Christ Jesus, Who loves you endlessly, and be captivated by His passion for you to the point that each day is an exciting opportunity to know Him better. May you discover that time is never sufficient to fully express the overwhelming gratitude that bubbles up inside for rescuing you from the destiny your family in Adam had inherited. Genesis 29

May you value the joys of God's service so that the sufferings of this present time will become a labor of love as you long for the appearing of Christ within you. Genesis 29

I am the One Who watches over you in all your comings and goings, preparing the way before and guarding the approach from behind. I am the Friend Who sticks closer than a loving brother, knowing you completely and sharing all your secrets, dreams, hopes, fears, disappointments, and joys.
I am the strong and high Refuge that you can shelter in when all turn against you, when the enemy comes in like a flood, the very sky is like brass and relief is as scarce as shade in the burning heat of day.
I am the Promise-Keeper Who can be trusted and counted upon to do what I have said, though every other source be proven a liar and every other power falls short of your needs, for I swear by Myself since there is none greater.
Believe in Me for what you need; trust in Me for what you cannot do; have faith in Me for what only I can accomplish. Do not turn elsewhere; do not be double-minded.
Depend on My rod and My staff to defend and rescue you. Pursue Me in the quiet times of the day so that you may recognize My voice in the busy times.
Seek Me in My Word and rejoice with others over the treasure I reveal to you; converse with Me through prayer and minister to others the healing and strength I pour out upon you by My Spirit.
I will bring you into the blessing that I have prepared for you, for I love you, and I will never forsake you.

May you always come to Jesus in the humble honesty of your need and not in the arrogant strength of your abundance, as the ruler did whose daughter died. It was not the power of his army but the depth of his grief that moved the Lord. Matthew 9

May you not despise the Lord's discipline and not resent His rebuke because the Lord disciplines those He loves as a father the son he delights in. Proverbs 3:11-12
