Blessed To Be A Blessing

Devotional 
Think about the last time you experienced a breakthrough in your life—maybe a prayer answered, a relationship restored, or freedom from something that held you captive. What was your first instinct? Often, we want to celebrate, rest in the victory, or simply move on with life. But God has a different design in mind. Every breakthrough, every blessing, every moment of freedom we experience is meant to overflow into the lives of others. God doesn't bless us just for our own benefit—He blesses us so we can become conduits of His blessing to a world in desperate need. Consider the ripple effect of one person's testimony. When someone shares how God set them free from addiction, it gives hope to others struggling with the same chains. When someone tells of God's provision during financial hardship, it strengthens the faith of those facing similar challenges. Your breakthrough becomes a key that can unlock someone else's prison. This principle extends beyond personal testimonies to every good gift God gives us—our talents, resources, opportunities, and even our salvation itself. We're not the final destination of God's goodness; we're distribution centers, meant to pass along what we've received. The world is full of people living in various forms of bondage—fear, shame, hopelessness, addiction, broken relationships. They're waiting for someone who has experienced God's freedom to show them the way out. Your story of breakthrough isn't just your story—it's a beacon of hope for others still trapped in darkness.

Bible Verse
"And he said to them, 'Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.'" - Mark 16:15

Reflection Question

Quote
When God impacts our lives, he blesses us so that we can go and be a blessing.

Prayer
Father, thank You for every breakthrough and blessing You've given me. Help me to see these gifts not as endpoints but as starting points for blessing others. Give me courage to share my story and wisdom to know when and how to do it.
