When we say God bless you we are requesting from God to pour favor, grace and good will on some one who should receive it. Now, we know that not every person though they should receive a blessing should not because of the way the conduct their lives. God&#8217;s blessing comes to those who are of innocent heart and whom God finds worthy of. We know that there are those whose intent is to do evil and, so God will not bless those people. So, as people of God our speaking of God&#8217;s blessing in other people&#8217;s lives is important and should be watched for, because we might bless one that should not be blessed.;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1k50oBkXxQU\">God speed<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>2 John 1:10-12<\/p>\n<p>10\u00a0If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:\u00a011\u00a0For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.\u00a012\u00a0Having many things to write unto you, I would not write with paper and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.<\/p>\n<p>God speed, our desire is that everyone experiences God&#8217;s goodness like we have experienced it. When we see someone who is in array and distraught we become afflicted and we question God, why is he not doing anything about working. One of greatest prayers for someone else&#8217;s blessing is made by the Psalmist in Psalms 20 he prays that God helps, defends and remembers your offering (Ps. 20:1-4).\u00a0 God is the only one that can reach man in his most desperate situation or circumstance and deliver him and with someone praying correctly deliverance is in the horizon.\u00a0 Moses made a similar prayer for his people (Nm 6:24-26), because his people were facing turmoil and affliction and they needed someone to bless them. Some one is always in need of a blessing; God speed. But, we always come across people who are resistant to God speed. The thought of why would God look at someone like me is in every person&#8217;s heart and it is a legitimate thought, but God&#8217;s thought of mercy and favor surpasses all arguments.<\/p>\n<p>The thought of goodness and God speed should be on all of our minds an intentions. Paul&#8217;s exhortation to the church was that of kindness and brotherly love when he said to greet each other with a holy kiss (1 Cor. 16:20).\u00a0 What the world needs today is the love of God to be demonstrated by his people at full speed; God speed, towards the dying generation and to his own. Jesus said that by this way is how people will know that we are from him if we love one another (Jh. 13:34-35)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Christian greeting is one that is like no other.
