And Abraham was old, and well stricken in age: and the Lord had blessed
Abraham in all things (Genesis 24:1).
In Romans 9:7, God didn’t say, “…Isaac shall thy seed be called”; rather,
He said, “…In Isaac shall thy seed be called.” This means He wasn’t referring
to the biological descendants of Abraham, but the 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).
Then, Galatians 3:29 tells us, “…if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s
seed, and heirs according to the promise.” We’re the seed of Abraham, and each
one of us has the potential of a multitude. You carry the seed of greatness.
Your progress and prosperity should be ever-increasing. Read about Isaac; the
Bible says, “…the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became
very great” (Genesis 26:13).
If you were a Pastor for example, and you had a thousand members in your
congregation, as the seed of Abraham there’s no reason those one thousand
members shouldn’t grow to become five thousand or even ten thousand within a
specified period. You have the grace and ability for growth, increase, and
expansion.
You’re graced for greatness; anointed to be fruitful and productive in
every good work. Therefore, keep making progress from glory to glory.
CONFESSION: I belong to Christ; therefore, I’m the seed of Abraham,
graced for greatness, and anointed to be fruitful and productive in every good
work. I’ve been ordained to prosper, and to live in your glory. I bring honour
to you today, and always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen!
Further Study: Genesis 12:2 And I will make of thee a great nation,
and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
John 15:4-5 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of
itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5 I
am the vine, ye [are] the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the
same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
Romans 8:16-17 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we
are the children of God: 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and
joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with [him], that we may be
also glorified together.
