(Sixth part)
Memory verse (Gal3: 13-14) " 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), that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith ".
Through the cross, Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law and now the blessings of ABRAHAM have been made available to all believers through Christ. Many saints are struggling not with curses but with ignorance in their lives. Jesus taught the Jews that believed on him, that if they would abide in his word, they would know the truth and the truth would set them free (Jn8: 31-32). Until you know what Jesus accomplished for us through his death on the cross, you will never enjoy freedom In your life. The dimension of God’s word in your life determines the dimension of freedom you enjoy. Lack of light from God’s word in any area of your life means lack of liberty in that area.
Satan does not want you to see the cross; he wants you to keep seeing your past. The cross of Jesus dealt with your past, and if you are in Christ, the past is gone and new life has come through Christ (2Cor5: 17). Christ dealt with all curses and all consequences of sin on the cross in his death, so that those who believe in him would be forgiven and set free from the past baggage and begin to live the new life in Christ.
The cross crossed out our curses and opened a door for us into the blessings of Abraham through Christ. If you are in Christ, then the blessings of Abraham are your portion in this life. Blessings of multiplication, increase, productivity, greatness and relationship with God are yours. You are already blessed with Abraham’s blessings through Christ. What has blocked the blessings is your ignorance. Knowledge is the key that gives you access into all that God has for you (1Cor2: 12). What you need is the activity of the Holy Spirit in your life and he will teach you all what God has given to us through Christ’s death on the cross. My friend, it’s discovery that brings recovery. Open your heart and allow the Holy Spirit to come into your life and ask him to lead you on the journey of discovering all what God has given you through Christ. And I guarantee you that whatever you will discover, you will possess. Enjoy the new life in God through the cross this weekend!!!!!
