Tweet

The blessings of Abraham are for us through Christ “When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am God Almightya; walk before me and be blameless. I will confirm my covenant between me and you and will greatly increase your numbers.”  The Promises made to Abraham was Conditional. Then the Lord said, “Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do? Abraham will surely become a great and powerful nation, and all nations on earth will be blessed through him. For I have chosen him, so that he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord by doing what is right and just, so that the Lord will bring about for Abraham what he has promised him.” (Gen 18:17-19). To keep the way of the Lord by doing what is right and just which was instructed in the Bible was the condition to recive promises. Is it possible to rob God? “I the Lord do not change. So you, O descendants of Jacob, are not destroyed. Ever since the time of your forefathers you have turned away from my decrees and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you,” says the Lord Almighty. “But you ask, ‘How are we to return?’ “Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me. “But you ask, ‘How do we rob you?’ “In tithes and offerings. You are under a curse—the whole nation of you—because you are robbing me. Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it.I will prevent pests from devouring your crops, and the vines in your fields will not cast their fruit,” says the Lord Almighty. “Then all the nations will call you blessed, for yours will be a delightful land,” says the Lord Almighty” ( Malachi 3:6-10). Abraham even before the law started following the covenant of God and blessed by God abundantly.He tithed Lord jesus Christ in the form of King Melchizedek The King of peace both King and Priest. “After Abram returned from defeating Kedorlaomer and the kings allied with him, the king of Sodom came out to meet him in the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley). Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. He was priest of God Most High, and he blessed Abram, saying, The King of Shalem Melchizedek blessing Abraham “Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth. And blessed be God Most High, who delivered your enemies into your hand.” Then Abram gave him a tenth of everything” ( Gen 14:17-20). One of the greatest blessings Abraham received was his life span upto 175 years.Where as we see in Psalms (90:10).The life span of man was around 70-80 years.This life span was for the people who disobeyed God in the wilderness and not for the blessed people.Sarah lived around 127 years.So the blessing on this earth would be around 120+ life span.If you think you could live around 80-90’s you will live around 90’s but if you believe that God’s blessings on your life you will live around morethan 120+ blessings.Abrahm siered 6 sons even before his death.Such was the blessings received by Abraham by following the covenant of God.Abraham didn’t die with sickness as many people die today but he died at a good old age an oldman of full of years. There is Covenant protection to Abraham through Christ to all the beleivers in Christ. “Altogether, Abraham lived a hundred and seventy-five years. Then Abraham breathed his last and died at a good old age, an old man and full of years; and he was gathered to his people”( Gen 25:7-8). Blessings for Obedience to the Covenant made by God in Deut 28:1-14: Blessings by obeying God's Word in Deut 28 If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations on earth. All these blessings will come upon you and accompany you if you obey the Lord your God: You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country. The fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock—the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks. Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed. You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out. Blessings in the city and country The Lord will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven. The Lord will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hand to. The Lord your God will bless you in the land he is giving you. The Lord will establish you as his holy people, as he promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the Lord your God and walk in his ways.Then all the peoples on earth will see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they will fear you.The Lord will grant you abundant prosperity—in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your ground—in the land he swore to your forefathers to give you. The Lord will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none. The Lord will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the Lord your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom.Do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today, to the right or to the left, following other gods and serving them”(Deut 28:1-14).
