ABRAHAM'S BLESSINGS ARE MINE

ABRAHAM’S BLESSINGS ARE MINE

By Rev. Samuel Arimoro

Main Text: Galatians 3:13-14 (KJV)
“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”

Supporting Texts: Genesis 12:1-3, Deuteronomy 28:1-14, Genesis 24:1, Hebrews 6:13-15, Romans 4:20-21

INTRODUCTION:
The blessings of Abraham are not just Old Testament promises; they are present-day realities for every believer in Christ Jesus. Through the finished work of the cross, we have been grafted into the covenant God made with Abraham. The moment we accepted Jesus as Lord and Saviour, we became spiritual heirs to the same blessings that Abraham enjoyed—blessings of fruitfulness, prosperity, divine protection, and generational impact.

Abraham’s life was marked by God’s favour. He experienced increase in all areas—spiritually, materially, and in influence. The Scripture tells us that “Abraham was old, and well stricken in age: and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things” (Genesis 24:1). This is not just history; it is a prophetic pattern for what God wants to do in the life of every believer.

To declare “Abraham’s blessings are mine” is to boldly align yourself with God’s covenant promises. It is to reject every form of limitation, curse, or spiritual setback, and to live in the reality of God’s provision, protection, and purpose. Today, we will explore what these blessings mean, how to walk in them, and how to pass them on to future generations.

1. UNDERSTANDING ABRAHAM’S BLESSINGS

a) Abraham’s blessings include fruitfulness and increase (Genesis 17:6)
God promised to make Abraham exceedingly fruitful.

b) Abraham’s blessings include divine protection (Genesis 12:3)
God blesses those who bless you and curses those who curse you.

c) Abraham’s blessings include supernatural provision (Genesis 22:14)
God is your provider in every situation.

d) Abraham’s blessings include generational impact (Genesis 18:18)
Through you, nations will be blessed.

Biblical Example: Isaac (Genesis 26:12-14) — He inherited the blessings of Abraham and prospered even in famine.

2. HOW WE BECOME PARTAKERS OF ABRAHAM’S BLESSINGS

a) By faith in Christ Jesus (Galatians 3:29)
If you are in Christ, you are Abraham’s seed.

b) By obedience to God’s instructions (Genesis 12:4)
Abraham’s blessings follow obedience.

c) By walking in righteousness (Genesis 15:6)
Righteousness positions you for covenant blessings.

d) By staying connected to God’s covenant (Hebrews 8:6)
The new covenant through Christ is better and established on better promises.

Biblical Example: Ruth (Ruth 1:16-17, 4:13-17) — Though a Moabite, she became part of God’s covenant family through faith and obedience.

4. HOW TO WALK DAILY IN ABRAHAM’S BLESSINGS

a) Live by faith (Romans 4:20-21)
Believe God’s word regardless of circumstances.

b) Speak the blessings over your life (Proverbs 18:21)
Your words activate your inheritance.

c) Be a blessing to others (Genesis 12:2)

When you understand, receive, and walk in these blessings, your life becomes a testimony of God’s faithfulness. You become a channel through which the covenant continues to flow to future generations. Today, make up your mind to claim, confess, and manifest these blessings in every area of your life.
