“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who hath blessed us, with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.” Ephesians 1:3 KJV
To be blessed means to be empowered to succeed. As long as you are in Christ, you have been empowered to succeed. Galatians 3:13 says that “Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law being made a curse for us: for it is written, cursed is every one that hangs on a tree.” So, you are not under a curse. With His blood, you were redeemed and your spirit was saved. Then, by hanging on a tree, the curse was removed. Otherwise, He could have died any other way, but His hanging removed every curse from your life. He was made a curse for you that the blessing of Abraham might come upon you.
Now as a believer, when you read Deuteronomy 28, do not read the curses because you have been redeemed from them. Read the blessings! You are blessed going out and blessed coming in. You are blessed in your basket and you are blessed in your storehouse. The blessing of God comes on you and overtakes you. He said that you are named by His name and that those who see you will be afraid of you. He will open to you His good treasure; the heaven to give you rain in its season. He has made you plenteous in goods. You are a lender and not a borrower. You are above only and not beneath. You are the head and not the tail. He said you are blessed in the fruit of your body. Anything that comes from your body is blessed. When you touch something, it becomes blessed because of what you are carrying.
How does it manifest? Philemon 1, verse 6 gives the answer. It says, “That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.” That is how the manifestation comes. By acknowledging every good thing in you. Further reading: Galatians 3:13-14; Philemon 1:4-7Daily Bible Reading: Morning- Esther 1-2; Evening- Acts 5:1-21 |
