SCRIPTURE :📖...._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)
═══════════════
As a Christian, there's no blessing from God that's not already in you and actively at work in your life. You've been blessed with ALL spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Just imagine any blessing you want; it's already yours because you're in Christ; the blessings are in Christ. 2 Corinthians 1:20 tells us that all the blessings of God in Christ are yes and amen to the glory of God. Hallelujah!
It explains why Peter declares in 1 Peter 3:9, *"Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing."* In Christ Jesus, we're supremely and graciously blessed; no curse can work against you. You're seated together with Christ in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6), far above all principality and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named not only in this world, but also in that which is to come (Ephesians 1:21).
Therefore, from where and from whom would the curse come? Remember the story of Balaam, a prophet hired by Balak to curse Israel. He realized that no curse or enchantment could prevail against God's chosen people. God had blessed them, and no external power could undo that blessing. Numbers 23:23 says, *"Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel...."*
If the Old Testament Israel couldn't be cursed, how much more the Church of Christ, also called the Israel of God? Hallelujah! No evil machinations, enchantments or witchcraft can work against you. The demons recognize who you are; there's a mark on you; you're branded by God and they know it! They know you're blessed and superior to them. You're in Christ, and Christ is in you.
Someone may try to take your position at work; you don't need to get worked up or start praying against them. You're already victorious. That's what the Bible says, *"Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us"* (Romans 8:37). You're always in victory (1 Corinthians 15:57). Glory to God!

My life is full of glory and excellence. I'm a living testimony of your manifold wisdom. Thank you for the victory I have in Christ now and always, in Jesus' Name. Amen._
