Sudden Manifestations of The Blessing . . .
During the recent observatory celebration of the birth of The Messiah and the approaching new calendar year, I’ve spoken to a significant number: “May sudden manifestations of The Blessing BE . . .”; in so doing, I was speaking Proverbs 10:22, and Galatians 3:14 which delineates The Blessing of Abraham as well as the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. The Blessing of Abraham is the covenant or contractual agreement between God and Abraham and his (Abraham’s) seed – Jesus the Anointed One who God appointed as our representative before the foundation of the world (Ephesians 1:3-12). Therefore, those who are “in Christ” are partakers of this contractual agreement or covenant, that regardless of what we faith walkers do or don’t do, God will never renege on His part. Abraham didn’t do everything right but God is ever faithful. Hallelujah! Perhaps an obvious question might be: if those of the Body of Christ retain righteousness regardless, why endeavor to do anything right? We endeavor to BE producers of good fruit that others may desire to know YHWH (with vowels YAHWEH, transliterated Jehovah, and commonly interpreted the LORD). We stand in the gap and make-up the hedge, we bind what is bound in Heaven and loose what is loosed in heaven, that the lost might recover themselves out of the snare of the devil. For example, during this pandemic, sons and daughters of Jehovah Rapha should be doing as the Living Word has commissioned each of us. If so, a significant number of us have been saying: “Lord Jesus, in remembrance of Your delegated authority to the Church to bind and loose, we bind satan, the spirit of fear, and this coronavirus in the Name of Jesus. No man shall eat its fruit hereafter forever. With authority in the Name above every name, we loose every person infected by this virus and release healing virtue to stop this plague throughout the land, in Jesus’ Name.” Faith takes! Salvation was made manifest by the all redeeming, re-creating, reconciling, pacifying, all restoring blood of Jesus. Therefore, faith takes everything inherit with salvation: supernatural health (1 Peter 2:24, Isaiah 53:5); supernatural wealth (2 Corinthians 9:8-11; Philippians 4:19), and eternal life. (The spirit is eternal; Heaven is far from a giant dormitory wherein all are sleeping.) E-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g Christ Jesus received so too have each person seated with Him (Ephesians 2:6): “power and riches and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and blessing” Revelation 5:12 (KJV). All these “things” were bestowed or gifted (note the past tense) by the grace of God the Father. “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast” Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV). The grace of God is the favor of God; the favor of God is upon the righteous and goes before the righteous; the righteous are those reconciled unto God the Father by the redemptive work of Christ Jesus. The Blessing of Abraham is still in force and it’s our own responsibility to receive these blessings through faith.
