“Generational Blessing”
“Generational Blessing”
“Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing” (1 Peter 3:9).
No Christian should be afraid of any “generational curse”; rather, we should be thankful for “generational blessing.” This blessing was passed from Abraham to Isaac and to Jacob, and then to us, the new creation in Christ; we’re the spiritual seed of Abraham.
If you’re born again, you’re the inheritor of the blessing of Abraham because the promise was to Abraham and his seed: “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” (Galatians 3:16).
Galatians 3:29 says, “And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” Therefore, you’re the blessed of God; and whatsoever is born of God can’t be cursed; it’s blessed!
2 Corinthians 5:17 says, “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” Being born again, you’re a brand new species; born blessed and without a past. You have a new lineage in Christ Jesus; it’s a lineage of the blessed! This is the Lord’s doing; He called and chose you for a life of blessing. He’s not about to do it; He’s done it already: “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).
You’ve been translated out of the kingdom of darkness, into the Kingdom of God’s dear Son; a Kingdom of unlimited blessings. The life of abundance and unlimited prosperity is your heritage in Christ. Refuse to allow ignorance rob you of a vibrant and effective life.
Prayer
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
who has begotten me unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, ushering me into the life of unending blessings. Hallelujah!
