Abundant Life Devotional

Jesus Christ became Curse for us to become a blessing.

Galatians 3:13
Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”).

As far as God is concerned, no one who truly believes and lives in Jesus Christ should ever say again I am under a curse. The only curse of a believer is his ignorance. Hosea 4:6 says, my people perish because they lack knowledge

According to Galatians 3:14, all believers in Jesus Christ are partakers of the blessings of Abraham. Jesus became a curse so that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

The blessings of Abraham is threefold. Genesis 12:2-3.

(1) I will make you a great nation; that included the blessing of a land as we see in verse 1.

(2) I will bless you and make your name great.

Abraham has a great name today. The father of faith.

(3) And you shall be a blessing.

Take note that God had already said in verse 2, I will bless you. But here it is, you shall be a blessing. what does that mean?. God explains, I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.

So, it is an error of language for a believer to say, I am cursed or under a generational curse. You are a new creation in Christ, complete and blessed forever. Even a wizard or witch will be afraid to call your name or to take you picture to work on, because your blessings can never be reversed. Read Numbers 22&23. Balaam said, God has already blessed and I can not reverse it hallelujah!!

The believer now walks in blessings. We are not just blessed. We are the blessing and the righteousness of God. Celebrate your position in Christ as a blessed of the Lord and walk in obedience like Abraham.
