Heirs of Abraham’s Blessing
GALATIANS 3:29
And IF YE BE CHRIST’S, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and HEIRS ACCORDING TO THE PROMISE.
Galatians 3:7.
Know ye therefore that THEY WHICH ARE OF FAITH, the same are the CHILDREN OF ABRAHAM.
Abraham’s blessing is ours! Why shouldn’t we be thrilled with the Word of God? When we go to a football game (and I’m not opposed to going to ball games), we get all excited and worked up over someone running down the field with a bag of wind under his arm! And no one says anything against that; it’s considered all right to get excited about that.
We Christians have got something to be really thrilled about! Abraham’s blessing is ours! That’s something to be thrilled about!
Deuteronomy 28:15-28, the Bible lists the curse of breaking God’s Law. However, in verses 1-14 the Bible lists the blessings of obedience to God. The blessings listed here are the blessings of Abraham. Notice what God says to His people.
DEUTERONOMY 28:8,11-13
The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto. . . . 11 And the Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods. . . . 12 The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure. . . . 13 And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath. . . .
Remember, God was talking about material and financial blessings. Instead of being on the tail end, because of a lack of knowledge, you will be right at the head!
verse 13 It is saying that you’ll not be on the bottom financially; you’ll be on the top! Amen
Blessings
