The blessing is not riches alone, though riches are part of the blessing but not sufficient on itself. It is the blessing that makes the riches and not the riches that make the blessing. The blessing encompasses the blessing of the name of God; the blessing of the grace or the mercy of God through Jesus Christ; peace and security in the blessing; the virtues in the blessing through the Holy Spirit; the riches in the blessing; and the eternity home of the blessing: these are the components that make the blessing. Anyone who is blessed must first be blessed with the knowledge of the God of the blessing which transfers on him the grace and the mercy of the God of the blessing.
