Luke 12:8
8 “And I say to you, everyone who confesses Me before men, the Son of Man will confess him also before the angels of God;
We are blessed with Abraham:
Galatians 3:9, 14
9 So
then those who are of faith are blessed with Abraham, the believer.
14 in
order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles,
so that we would receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Are you of faith? Then you are
destined to be blessed along with Abraham. Now it doesn’t say those who have
faith; as if you had to “earn” it. If you are a believer, then you are of
faith.
There are many kinds of blessing.
This one is a most important one. The believers in the Old Testament may have
experienced the Holy Spirit in their lives on occasion. We, however, can
experience Him continually in our lives. He resides in us permanently. We
didn’t have to be physical descendants of Abraham to receive this blessing.
Even a Gentile could receive this most precious gift … simply by believing.
If you could hear God speak to you, I believe this is what
He would say:
"You
are as special to Me as Abraham was. He was My special friend, and so are you
if you follow My Word. I will be with you and will guide and protect you like I
did Abraham. He was special to Me, and so are you. Let Me be Lord of your life,
and you will overcome all obstacles. You are the light of the world; act like
it! You have everything you need from Me through My Spirit who indwells you.
Trust Him, and He will guide you into all the Truth. He is the way for you to
come into My fullest blessings. Rely on Him to show you the way into My Kingdom
living.”
59. I am of faith and
therefore am blessed with Abraham, the believer. I have the promise of the Holy
Spirit indwelling me.
