BLESSED WITH FAITHFUL ABRAHAM
That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith (Galatians 3:14).

The blessing of Abraham is no ordinary concept—it is the foundation of the Gospel. Many think of it only in terms of material prosperity, but it’s far greater. The blessing of Abraham is the outpouring of God’s grace, His covenant kindness, translated from the Hebrew word, “hesed.” It includes divine favour, fruitfulness, dominion, and most importantly, the promise of the Spirit.

When God called Abraham, He said, “I will bless you and make you a blessing…and in you shall all the families of the earth be blessed” (Genesis 12:2-3). This was God’s prophetic declaration of the Gospel. It was the announcement of His plan to pour out His love and goodness on all humanity through faith. The Apostle Paul made it clear that this blessing has now come to the Gentiles through Jesus Christ.

Thus, if you’re in Christ, you’re Abraham’s seed and an heir according to the promise (Galatians 3:29). You’re the fulfilment of God’s promise to Abraham thousands of years ago. That blessing includes justification, righteousness, the Holy Spirit, and divine access to God’s fullness.

The Bible says, “So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham” (Galatians 3:9). When God made the promise to Abraham, it was to Abraham’s seed, which is Christ: “Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ” (Galatians 3:16).

When you received Christ, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise. That seal marks you as God’s own and guarantees your access to all the blessings and benefits of the Abrahamic covenant: “And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Galatians 3:29). Walk in this consciousness. You’re not trying to be blessed; you’re blessed with faithful Abraham. Declare it. Live it. Spread blessings everywhere. Hallelujah!

Prayer / Confession
I’m the seed of Abraham, blessed and highly favoured in Christ Jesus. The blessing of Abraham is working in me—in my spirit, soul and body. I have access to all that God has made available in Christ. I walk in divine health, prosperity and victory today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
