A few years back, on a special trip to Israel, my pastors and I were overlooking the mountains of Ebal and Gerizim. In the Bible, Mount Ebal was the mountain of curses and Mount Gerizim was the mountain of blessings (see Deut. 27:12-13). As we were looking out towards the two mountains, I was reminded that under the law, the children of Israel’s blessings were dependent on their law-keeping. If they kept the law, they would be blessed; if they didn’t keep the law, they would be cursed.
Isn't it amazing to know that today, Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law (see Gal. 3:13-14)? Because He took every curse on our behalf, now there are only blessings for us to receive! You can find out more truths about our rightful position on blessing ground from this exciting bible study with my congregation. Find out more about this sermon here: http://bit.ly/2uSWBHu
Beloved, because of what Jesus has done, all of God’s good promises are yes and in Him amen to the glory of God through us (see 2 Cor. 1:20)! When you say, “Amen!” to a promise from the Word of God, you receive His blessings upon your life, and God gets the glory! Can I get a good Amen?
