"The Promised Blessing"


“The Promised Blessing”

 

He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.              Galatians 3:14

 

This verse of Scripture is NOT speaking of the National blessing, which was given to the Nation of Israel.  But it is the PROMISED BLESSING of JUSTIFICATION which is apart from works of the Law.  It is given to ALL who BELIEVE.  It was part of the BLESSING given to Abraham that Gentiles might be able to receive.

 

And for ALL who BELIEVE in CHRIST JESUS, by FAITH, might receive the PROMISE of God’s HOLY SPIRIT, and His ministry to the TRUE BELIEVER.  This Scripture again shows us that SALVATION and SANCTIIFICATION comes by FAITH and NOT by WORKS.  

 

This PROMISE is given to those who come to GOD for the SALVATION of their souls through the REDEMPTIVE work of Jesus Christ, on an old, rugged cross.  SHEDDING His precious blood, because without the SHEDDING of blood, there is NO FORGIVENESS of sins.  Jesus came and BLED and DIED so that ALL who BELIEVE might receive the PROMISE of GOD’S HOLY SPIRIT, who INDWELLS the BELIEVER, and makes Himself available to the BELIEVER for SANCTIFICATION, which is the act of “being set apart” for every good and righteous work that God has called that BELIEVER to do. 

 

Have you received God’s PROMISED BLESSING of JUSTIFICATION?  Have you come to God for the SALVATION and SANCTIFICATION of your soul?  If NOT you are DESTINED to spend an ETERNITY in Hell, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY of ESCAPE.  In order to RECEIVE this PROMISED BLESSING of JUSTIFICATION, you MUST TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then you MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU, and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  Then you MUST CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION and SANCTIFICATION, and receive His PROMISED BLESSING.  Do it NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
