Your Checklist To Access THE BLESSING 06/03

Episode Summary: "Your Checklist To Access THE BLESSING" (06/03/2025)

Podcast: Believer's Voice of Victory Audio Podcast
Host: Kenneth Copeland Ministries
Guests: Kenneth Copeland, Kelly Copeland, John Copeland
Main Theme:
A practical, scripture-rooted exploration of what it means to "access the blessing" in every area of life, using real-life analogies (like airplane checklists), direct Bible study (Psalm 1, Deuteronomy 28), and practical stories. The Copeland family teaches that THE BLESSING is available as a covenant right for believers, but acting on God’s Word—being a “doer”—is essential for experiencing it.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. The Importance of Gratitude and Testimonies

Listener Testimony [00:18]: Kenneth reads from a listener in Hawaii (“CS”), describing practical ways God has blessed her (financial increase, repairs, small kindnesses).
- Kenneth: “I’m so thankful for even the small blessing...Praise God.”

2. Lessons from an Airplane Incident: Don’t Skip Your Checklist

Aviation Analogy [01:20 – 04:07]: Kenneth recounts a harrowing incident with an airplane where a pre-flight checklist step was missed, nearly resulting in danger.
- Key lesson: “Whatever you’re going to start, you better start it by faith.” [04:49]
- Kelly: “That sounds scary.” [04:02]
- Kenneth was unafraid, recognizing God’s protection, but notes his neglect of the checklist.

3. Principle: Be a Doer, Not Just a Hearer

Application of the Analogy [11:07 – 12:21]
- Kenneth: “It was on the checklist, and I didn’t check it...I read it and didn’t do it. That’s the point.”
- Kelly: “You assumed it was done.”
- Kenneth (quoting James): “Be a doer of the Word and not a hearer only…”

4. Meditating on the Word to Access the Blessing

Psalm 1 Discussion [06:53 – 08:49]
- Kelly reads Psalm 1: “Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly…”
- Kenneth and John discuss the Psalm’s history: Psalms as sung national history, essential for identity.
- Kenneth: “By singing their history, every Jewish child grew up knowing the history of our nation.”

5. What "The Blessing" Actually Is (Deuteronomy 28)

Breakdown of Deuteronomy 28 [14:50 – 17:32]
- Kenneth: “All these blessings shall come on you and overtake you if you’ll listen…”
- Blessing applies to all areas: city, field, work (including modern analogies: “tractors,” “building a church,” “business”).
- Kenneth: “This is his tractors. Amen. Whatever kind of business you’re in...that’s where you go, right there.”
- Kelly: “The Amplified makes it about fruit and increase. Whatever brings fruit… should bring increase.”

6. Applying the Blessing in Business, Ministry, and Daily Life

John’s Experience [17:48 – 22:35]
- As a rancher and realtor, John saw Deuteronomy 28's blessing as directly relevant: “That paragraph was like my daily things because I do have cattle...but it doesn't matter whether it's ranching or real estate or making widgets or in ministry… all those things are still relevant.”
- On workplace challenges: “Your field...your customers are your field. If you’re a realtor...claim that field, it’s blessed.”
- Facing adversity: “When that happens, you know, it’s like your enemies come at you one way and flee before you. But we need that coming out our mouths, right? And we need it before the enemies come at us...This needs to come out your mouth and you need to stand on it just like you would, you know, like a tool, because it’s God’s tool for you.”
- On the curse: “People are living in that curse on a daily basis because they don’t know God...Even a lot of people that do know God are still living in it because they don’t understand or they’ve been taught wrong about the blessing and the value of the blessing.”

7. The Necessity of Knowledge and Speaking the Blessing

Kenneth [22:35]: “It’s not preached. My people perish for a lack of knowledge...”
The importance of knowing what you are redeemed from, and actively confessing blessings over your life.

8. Faith Confession and Identity in Christ

Kenneth [26:29]: “If you are in Christ, then are you Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise. You ought to be loosed from that infirmity. Bless God. You ought to be free. You ought to be debt free. You ought to be pain free. Glory to God. You ought to be sick free.”

Takeaways & Action Steps:

Checklist Principle: Like a pilot, believers should ensure every part of their spiritual “pre-flight” is done—hearing and doing the Word (James 1:22).
Confess and Believe: Regularly speak scriptural blessings over your life, business, and family.
Study and Meditate: Spend time in passages like Psalm 1 and Deuteronomy 28, understanding what God’s blessing is and how it applies.
Actively Learn: Don’t perish from lack of knowledge—seek teaching, study, and share testimonies.
Apply in Every Area: The Blessing covers all of life—work, relationships, health, finances. Identify your “field” and claim God’s promises over it.
Identity: Remember your place as Abraham’s seed through Christ; live in expectation of THE BLESSING.

In summary: This episode uses vivid stories and direct Bible study to illustrate that God’s blessing is available to every believer but must be actively pursued by faith, with diligence, gratitude, and out-loud confession—just like a pilot methodically using a checklist before every flight.
