The Lord bless you and keep you

The promises of the Lord are always up, they never fall because God does not lie, He keeps His true and faithful word. Remember that He is God and keeps His promises above all obstacles.

When we reflect on the promises of God, we must understand that His words are not like the words of men. People can fail, people can lie, and people can make promises they later forget. But God is not like that. Everything the Lord declares is firm, eternal, and unshakable. His promises stand even when circumstances look opposite to what we expect. He does not forget, He does not change His mind, and He never abandons what He has spoken.

God’s blessings will never end, but they also bring salvation, transformation, and hope. This happens because we trust Him, because we know that He never fails. God is real, and so real is everything that He promises. Every word that comes from His mouth carries the weight of His authority and the certainty of His character. If He has promised something, we can rest with confidence, knowing that He will fulfill it in His perfect time.

The Lord bless you and keep you;

Numbers 6:24

God speaks to Moses so that Moses speaks with Aaron and his children, telling them that He would bless the children of Israel. This blessing, known as the Aaronic blessing, was not simply a phrase—it was a divine declaration over the nation. Yet the people of Israel often heard the words of God and still doubted. They had seen miracles, they had seen deliverance, they had walked through the Red Sea, and still found reasons to question God.

The people of Israel, despite all the wonders that God did with each one of them, continued with doubt. They feared that what God had promised would not be fulfilled. And why did this happen? Because they wanted what was promised immediately. Their impatience made them forget that God’s timing is different from ours. God is never late, but He is also never early. He fulfills His purpose at the exact moment He determines—when it aligns with His perfect will.

The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;

Numbers 6:25

These were the words that Moses declared for his people: “The Lord bless you and keep you.” These were powerful and comforting words that came out of the mouth of Moses, reminding Israel that God was with them and watching over them. Day after day they saw the sun rise and set before their eyes, a visible reminder that God’s mercy renewed itself every morning.

To have God’s face shine upon someone means to receive His favor, His presence, and His grace. This blessing was not empty; it was fulfilled by God in many ways—through protection, provision, forgiveness, and guidance. Everything God declared through Moses came to pass in His timing.

The Lord lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.

Numbers 6:26

God gave Israel peace in each of the battles they faced. Every time enemies rose against them, the Lord was their shield. He gave them victory after victory. Their enemies never prevailed because God was the One fighting for them. This teaches us an important truth: the peace of God is not simply the absence of problems but the presence of God in the midst of them.

Therefore, it is good that we wait for God’s time. Be obedient, remain faithful, and trust His process. When we ask for something, we must learn to wait with patience and hope, knowing that God’s answer will always arrive at the perfect moment. His promises never fail; His blessings never run out; and His peace will always sustain His children.
