Resurgence Global is a group of Christians in the UK who have concerns for the world (people and the planet) and look to the Bible for principles for problem solving. One of these principles they believe is the power of blessing. Blessing brings change and releases the goodness and purposes of God into situations. Receiving a blessing is like receiving a much desired gift

The group have written a generic blessing for nations and customise it as appropriate.
