The Bible teaches us', Russ Parker writes, 'that blessing is a unique ministry resource gifted to believers to effect the purposes of God in peoples' lives.' In this enthralling book, the author tells of situations of family estrangement, depression and chronic illness; of times of hopelessness and helplessness where miraculous transformation has been wrought through calling on God to bless someone with the richest blessing they are able to receive. As he has travelled the country teaching on the ministry of blessing, Russ has seen an enthusiastic response and uptake, especially amongst those involved in prayer ministry. He believes it is time for all who want to be part of God's renewal - both in church and through reaching out to the wider community - to consider how we might help others to flourish as the people God has called them to be. 'Russ Parker's ground breaking work on healing community history will be so helpful to churches. It has greatly helped me.' The Rt Revd Graeme Dow, former Bishop of Carlisle

Many still ask God to do what he has already done! The reason is simple: they don't understand how the kingdom works. God is not going to do what he has already done for you! You have to learn to receive it! The bible says: "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED US WITH ALL SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ" - (Ephesians 1:3). God has already blessed you with every good thing that exists in Christ. Health, prosperity, victory, success, joy, peace, and every blessing you can imagine are already yours. You have already been blessed in all things, and with all things. What you need is to learn and know how to get the blessing working in your life. But we often pray as though God is unwilling to bless us or as though he has not blessed us. Many are used to shouting and yelling the following prayers at God: "I will not let you go unless you bless me" They yell at God as though he was unwilling to bless, while in the actual sense of it he has already given you all these things. So why do many folks pray as though they are not already blessed? So why do many Christians pray as one needing to be blessed? The reason is because many folks don't know what the scripture means when it says God has blessed us WITH ALL SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ. You should live and function as one who is already blessed! If you can just calm down and grasp this fact, Christianity will begin to have a greater meaning to you! I have discovered that receiving is quite simple! Receiving involves speaking the blessings over your life regularly with a certain mindset that you are not asking God to do what He is not willing to do or has not done already for you, but that all things are already yours and available to you! It is shift from praying beggarly prayers to taking what's yours in Christ by Spiritual Birth. Sadly many don't know how to do this. Speaking the Blessings is to engage the blessings, activate them and release them to be made manifest in your life. Speaking the blessings is also a powerful form of spiritual warfare and devils don't like it neither can they fight or withstand it. It is a combination of both spiritual warfare to clear the way for the blessing to be manifested and a "blessing highway" that delivers the blessing to you. Speaking the Blessings over one's life was how God intended for all His children to live and pray. It is quite simple but very powerful and a deliverer of the required blessings. HOW TO SPEAK THE BLESSINGS OVER YOUR LIFE AND GET RESULTS, was therefore written to provide you powerful insights with sample prayers on how to effectively speak the blessings over your life on a daily basis and INDEED GET RESULTS!
