Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know you have made your light to shine upon your chosen people. In Jesus’ name, amen.
God spoke to Moses and gave Arron a blessing for the people of Israel in Numbers 6:22-27 (ESV).
“The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ‘Speak to Aaron and his sons,
saying, Thus you shall bless the people of Israel: you shall say to them,
The Lord bless you and keep you;
the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you;
the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.
‘So shall they put my name upon the people of Israel, and I will bless them.’”
Psalm 118:27 (ESV) is slightly different than the benediction.
“The Lord is God,
and he has made his light to shine upon us.”
The psalmist provides a powerful confirmation the Lord’s light shines.
Be blessed by the Arron’s benediction and by Psalm 118:27. It is good to have the Lord’s blessing.
