OPEN HEAVEN 21 MARCH 2026 BIBLE READING: GENESIS 28:10-22 (KJV)
10 And Jacob went out from Beer-sheba, and went toward Haran.
11 And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep.
12 And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.
13 And, behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, I am the LORD God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed;
14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.
15 And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.
16 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not
17 And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place! this is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.
18 And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put for his pillows, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it.
19 And he called the name of that place Beth-el: but the name of that city was called Luz at the first.
20 And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,
21 So that I come again to my father’s house in peace; then shall the LORD be my God:
22 And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God’s house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee.

Yesterday, I mentioned that curses attack roots. Similarly, divine blessings also go root-deep.
For example, in Genesis 22:16-18, God blessed Abraham and said, “Through your seed shall the whole earth be blessed.”
Two generations later, after Jacob deceived his father into blessing him, God appeared to him in a dream and said, “I am the God of your fathers, Abraham and Isaac.”
That statement clearly implies that the blessing over Abraham and Isaac had flown through Jacob’s roots to him.
In other words, Jacob had been blessed even before his birth.
Beloved, the next time someone tells you, ‘God bless you,’ do not take it for granted.
Someone once came to me and said, “Daddy, pray for me,” and I replied, “God bless you.”
After saying this, he refused to go because he still wanted to tell me about his problem.
He didn’t understand the magnitude of what I said when I told him, ‘God bless you.’
Nowadays, people have turned ‘God bless you’ into a greeting; however, when it comes from someone with the God-given authority to bless you, you don’t need any other blessing.
God has given fathers the authority to bless, so when your father blesses you because he is pleased with you, it goes root-deep.
In Genesis 27:1-4, Isaac told Esau to go hunting and prepare him a special meal.
There was food in the house, but he was setting Esau up for a special kind of blessing.
When Jacob came in with the special meal just the way his father wanted it, Isaac was deceived.
He ate the meal and pronounced the blessing on Jacob.
When he discovered that he had made a mistake, he told Esau that he had blessed Jacob and that nothing could be done to reverse it.
Esau was devastated and pleaded for a little blessing. The ‘little’ blessing he got still produced massive results in his life because years later, as Jacob returned home and was told that Esau was on his way to meet him, Jacob, who had the lion’s share of the blessing, began to tremble.
God had blessed his brother, who had the little portion of the blessing, so much that he had four hundred bodyguards around him!
Child of God, seek to live a life that pleases your heavenly Father and attracts His blessings.
Today, I decree in the name that is above every other name, “God bless you.”
