Jesus said "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.'"
Paul wrote to the church in Ephesus "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places…"
God does not "bless" Christians anymore than he "blesses" anyone else physically. His blessings are spiritual. Christians need to get their focus off themselves.
