I am a big fan of birthdays. I think it’s a great way to celebrate someone you love and make lasting memories. One of the ways we can do that is by sending a card, letter, gift with a message that will bless them. This is when writing a birthday blessing can be super encouraging and kind.

As a Christian, I love it when people speak a blessing or send me a blessing on my birthday. It really encourages and makes me want to draw closer to God. Plus, if you have study the word of God you know that blessing someone is a very powerful spiritual act!

So, my hope is that this little collection of blessings will hit the mark for your loved ones’ birthday.

Just like I have done in my other posts here is a table of content to help you navigate through the blessings. But I encourage you to just scroll through as a lot of these can be changed up to fit for your mom, dad wife, husband, son, daughter, or friend.

I do want to encourage you to let the Holy Spirit guide you as you look through these blessing and also be open to Him redirecting you writing or speaking your own blessing over the birthday person!

For many people, birthday blessings are a special way to express love, support and encouragement to someone. Birthday blessing can come in many shapes and sizes, from a simple bible verse to a more elaborate prayer or even poem. You can keep them short and simple or long and poetic.

But the key to a good blessing is that comes from the heart and in prayer before God. Our words have power and we want to use them to lift people up. So, when looking through these blessing find one that resonates with you and even change it a bit to make it uniquely yours.
