God Quote-Blessing

JOHN SHIRK – In the Year of God’s Word, this is what the LORD says in Genesis 12:2 and 3.

The LORD said to Abraham, “I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”

This blessing to the world is ultimately fulfilled in Jesus who came through the line of Abraham’s descendants. God keeps His promises. It may take many years, but God is always true to His Word. He will bring to light what He has promised in due time.

Another lesson we learn is that God blesses us to be a blessing.  Whenever God blesses us, that is an opportunity to pass the blessing along through generous giving, hospitality, and acts of service that meet people’s needs.

Genesis 12:2 and 3-that’s today’s God Quote for us to embrace for Life.
