The Promise to Become a Blessing to All Nations

Last week we heard of the curses resulting from our unbelief and disobedience, including our enemy of death, and of the promise of a Son of Eve, Jesus Christ, who would defeat our enemies. God now speaks a Gospel promise of blessing at a time when all people groups worshiped false gods and were enslaved in dark idolatry. God's history-changing promise to bless Abraham integrates (1) a Land, (2) a Line of descendants that would bless all nations, and (3) that the Lord would be their God: A nation saved from idols, made righteous through faith in the Lord God's promises, and freed to bless the Lord in the place He provides. Abraham's promised Seed is none other than our Lord Jesus Christ. In Him, the blessing to Abraham is eternally secured and fulfilled. God's promise flows out through the generations, extending as far as Abraham's Line in the Church at Coromandel Valley. Please pray that we hear, believe, live and share in God's Salvation mission to bless the nations.
