Blessing is speaking God's intentions or favour over someone or some situation. When we do that in faith, we activate God's power to change a person (ourselves included), or a situation, from where they are now to where God wants them to be.
Every Christian has the authority and power to bless others in the name of the Lord and see
Richard Brunton
Richard Brunton was a pioneer of the market research industry in New Zealand. He co-founded Colmar Brunton in 1981 and built the business into the country's best known and most trusted research company - www.colmarbrunton.co.nz He was the driving force behind Colmar Brunton's 'Better Business, Better World' campaign - a personal crusade around creating profit by creating purpose, or making money by making meaning. He believes (with the research to back it) that organisations that are driven by the big ideal of making their customers' lives better create more shareholder value in the long run than those who focus on other aims. His articles, speeches and unique perspectives have been published in many magazines and newspapers. Richard was inducted into the Marketing Hall of Fame in 2005, and became a life member of the Marketing Research Society of New Zealand in 2010. In 2014, he retired as Executive Chairman of Colmar Brunton and has devoted his time to writing, speaking and marketplace ministry. Richards' other recently published booklet The Awesome Power of Blessing is having a significant impact on the lives of people around the world. Richard attends FaithPointe church in Auckland. He is also a member of the ministry team at Charisma Christian Ministries and teaches in their School of Supernatural Ministry. He has been married to Nicole for 10 years, has learnt to speak French, and spends time between New Zealand and New Caledonia. He is a keen boatie and fisherman, and owns an amphibious Sealegs boat. There are now 10,000,000 of Richard Brunton's books in print (The Blessing Effect, The Awesome Power of Blessing and Anointed for Work), and growing at a rate of 200,000 per week.

Foreword
I encourage you to read this small book with its powerful message – you will be changed!
It was while Richard Brunton and I were having breakfast one morning that he shared what God had revealed to him about the power of blessing, and I immediately saw the potential for great impact in the lives of others.
I filmed his message to show at our church men’s camp. The men present thought it was so good they wanted the whole church to hear it. People began putting it into practice in every area of their lives and we heard amazing testimonies as a result. One businessman reported that his business had gone from ‘nothing, to profit’ within two weeks. Others were physically healed as they began to bless their bodies.
Other opportunities for this message to be heard began to open up. I was due to speak at a Gathering of the Generals event (where church pastors come together to learn and be refreshed) in Kenya and Uganda. Richard accompanied me on that trip and took a session on blessing. The message broke through long-buried emptiness and pain. Most of the people in the audience had never been blessed by their fathers and as Richard stood in that role and blessed them, many cried and experienced emotional and spiritual release along with an immediate change in their lives.
Knowing how to bless has impacted my life to the point where I now look for opportunities to bless others in ‘word and deed’ – through what I say and do. You will enjoy this little book, and if you apply it to your life, your fruitfulness will abound and overflow for the Kingdom of God.
