Numbers 6:27 KJV
And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them.
This is one of my favorite passages in the Bible. While I know we are to avoid vain repetition, I so long that this blessing rest upon the people over the which God has allowed me to pastor. I long for this blessing to be the wonderful experience of my children and grandchildren.
Now here is the culmination of it. Its result, we might say, is that in the blessing the minister has put the name of the Lord upon them.
And in this there comes real meaning to the blessing as that precious name is Jesus Christ. Whenever we are able to give a soul Christ we have surely given to them God's richest blessing.
