“And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” (Galatians 3:29)
In Genesis 12:2, God said to Abraham, “…I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing.” All the promises of God to Abraham weren’t just to Abraham, but to Abraham and his seed. Galatians 3:16 says, “Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, and to seeds, as of many; but as of one, and to thy seed, which is Christ.” Notice that it says, “to Abraham and his seed”; not seeds. That seed is Christ; and as a new creation, you belong to Christ; therefore, you’re the seed of Abraham! (Galatians 3:29).
Your union with Christ automatically qualified you as the authentic descendant of Abraham, and by extension, the heir of the Abrahamic blessings. This means that not only are you specially blessed of God, you’re also a blessing; you’re a conveyor of eternal verities!
In you, shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; what a life! You’re the distributor of God’s blessings, and anyone who associates with you is sure to receive a blessing from God!
Having been born again, you’re a God-carrier; a conveyor of His love, power, glory, virtue, compassion and grace everywhere you go.
