| I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. |
| Genesis 12:2 |
When God called Abraham, He said to him, “…I will bless you… and you
shall be a blessing.” We who are new covenant believers in Christ are
called the seed of Abraham (Galatians 3:29), and like Abraham, we are
called to be a blessing.
Now, how can we be a blessing if we are not blessed in the first place? How can we be a blessing to others when we are always flat on our backs with sickness, living from hand to mouth, never having enough for our own family and always having to borrow from others?
No way, my friend. God wants you healthy and strong, and He wants you to have more than enough financially so that you can be generous with your relatives, friends, community or anyone who needs help. He wants to bless you so that you can, like Abraham, be a blessing to many!
