Life lesson: God's greatest desire is for his people to prosper.

I bless all the friends and brothers in Christ who are part of the blockchain.

We all really know that prosperity comes from Jehovah. That God is the owner of gold and silver. That God is rich in all things. If God demands something of his creation, it is for all to prosper.
Prosperity is physical, spiritual and emotional well-being. The greatest prosperity that man can experience is spiritual freedom, that is; Free from the curse of sin.

On the material plane, God told Abraham:

Go away from your land and your family, and from your father's house, to the land I will show you. And I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you, and I will magnify your name, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and those who curse you, I will curse; and all the families of the earth will be blessed in you (Genesis 12: 1-3).

In these biblical portions, you can clearly see God's promise of greatness to Abraham, who was blessed in many ways, including material blessings, which are highlighted in Genesis 13: 1-2:

Then Abraham went up from Egypt to the Negev, he and his wife, with all that he had, and with him Lot. And Abraham was very rich in cattle, silver and gold.

This passage highlights the glory of the material blessings that God had given Abraham.

These same conditions of greatness and blessings of Abraham are valid for today's believer.
This is confirmed by the apostle Paul in Galatians 3: 13-14.

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, made by us curse (because it is written: Cursed be all who are hung on a tree), so that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham reaches the Gentiles, so that by Faith Receive the promise of the Spirit.

All the conditions of greatness and blessings of Abraham through Christ passed to all
Gentiles, of course, we have received Christ in our hearts.

Abraham's blessings for us have important implications, because the Lord wants us to prosper, spiritually, emotionally, physically and materially. It is remarkable to note that all these blessings are ours because they are promises of God.

Sort:  

Glory to God! @dali13, certainly God wants to prosper us in everything, so we are part of Abraham's promise.
Thanks for sharing.
