\"\"There will come a time in our life when we will be called on by God to leave the familiar and safe to go to a place of trust and risk.\u00a0 To advance in God\u2019s kingdom we can\u2019t stay where we are\u2026ever. \u00a0We may have an idea what or where our destination is, but trust me, when you get there you will discover that your destination was only a part of your journey! \u00a0There is always more.<\/p>\n

Abram (later named Abraham) was called by God to leave his land, relatives, and father\u2019s house.\u00a0 Why?\u00a0 He was well off and comfortable.\u00a0 He was living the good life.\u00a0 However, God told him why:<\/p>\n

\u201cI will make you into a great nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI will bless you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI will make your name great.\u201d<\/p>\n

Everything up to that point was according to Abram\u2019s will.\u00a0 But God wanted Abram to experience what \u201cI will\u201d do for you!\u00a0 Abram was about to experience God\u2019s will, which far surpassed anything he could imagine or will for his own life.\u00a0 What God was about to do for and with Abram was out of this world!<\/p>\n

Abram and Sarai were an ordinary couple, but God wanted to make them into a great nation!\u00a0 God wanted to personally bless them and make Abram\u2019s name great, so much that Abram would BECOME a blessing.\u00a0 A blessing so profound that all the people of the earth would be blessed through him!\u00a0 God blessed Abram to BE a blessing.<\/p>\n

God wants to do the same thing through us.\u00a0 He wants our lives to be a blessing to others.\u00a0 When God blesses us, it enables us to channel God\u2019s goodness to others.\u00a0 God wants to demonstrate His goodness through you and that can only happen when we receive the blessing.\u00a0 God has blessed you, but have you received the blessing?<\/p>\n

Satan\u2019s goal is to rob you of the blessing through fear and unbelief. \u00a0He wants you to doubt God\u2019s goodness and love for you by filling your mind with and all kinds of evil imaginations, he deceives you by getting you to believe that you are sub-standard and unworthy of God\u2019s blessing.<\/p>\n

What is The Blessing?\u00a0 As believers, we have been given THE BLESSING OF ABRAHAM.\u00a0 We have been blessed with health and riches beyond measure.\u00a0 All that God promised Abraham is made available to us through Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit.\u00a0 When you believed in Jesus and received the Holy Spirit, The Blessing of Abraham became YOURS!\u00a0 The blessing shows up in health and wealth.\u00a0 The blessing is manifested in multiplication.\u00a0 I know when a Christian has received The Blessing.\u00a0 We look at them and SEE the blessing and SAY, \u201cBoy, you sure are blessed!\u201d\u00a0 You would hesitate to call a sick or broke person blessed.\u00a0 They aren\u2019t blessed, they are depressed! They have not laid hold of the truth that has the power to set them free.\u00a0 God wants you to live the blessed life so you can pass His goodness, His riches, and His healing power on to others.\u00a0 God is glorified when you live the blessing!<\/p>\n

How do you get blessed you may ask?\u00a0 You already have been blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ.\u00a0 You just need to take that spiritual blessing and, by faith, cause it to manifest in the physical realm for others to see<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

There was no doubt that Abraham was blessed.\u00a0 Abimelech said to Abraham, \u201cGod is with you in everything you do (Genesis 21:22).\u00a0 Abimelech said that because he SAW it!\u00a0 It wasn\u2019t hidden in heaven somewhere.\u00a0 By faith in God\u2019s Word Abraham experienced the blessing and others saw it manifest in his living.\u00a0 Should it be different with us?\u00a0 NO!\u00a0 We ARE blessed WITH believing Abraham.\u00a0 We have what he had because Christ Jesus, by the power of the eternal Spirit joined Abraham\u2019s blessing and us together by faith.<\/p>\n

What do you need to do?\u00a0 RECEIVE!\u00a0 No magic, no toil, just receive!\u00a0 How?\u00a0 By faith.\u00a0 Where do I get the faith?\u00a0 It\u2019s already in you and just needs to be activated by meditating on God\u2019s Word\u2026His promises and praying in the Holy Spirit.\u00a0 Build up your faith to receive God\u2019s promises.\u00a0 It\u2019s simple, but not easy.\u00a0 It\u2019s not easy because the enemy is on a mission to steal, kill, and destroy you.\u00a0 How?\u00a0 By stealing God\u2019s Word out of your heart.\u00a0 When he does that he kills your hope and ultimately destroys you.\u00a0 Don\u2019t LET him.\u00a0 Be firm and steadfast in God Word.\u00a0 Pray in your prayer language and your faith will be built up and as it does, the Blessing of Abraham will begin manifesting in your life for you to enjoy and others to see.\u00a0 When they see that you are blessed they will want what you have.<\/p>\n

People want hope.\u00a0 They are seeking for answers and we have the answers.\u00a0 We need to open to the Lord and His Word.\u00a0 The Holy Spirit will do the rest.\u00a0 YOU contain the answer others seek.\u00a0 Don\u2019t shirk your responsibly.\u00a0 Give yourself to God and His Word and just watch what will happen.<\/p>\n
