Gal 3:13-14

13 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:

14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith KJV

Gen 12:1-3

12:1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:

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:

3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. KJV

Is there such a thing as curses and blessings? When God created man, He blessed him and told him to be fruitful and multiply and to have dominion over the earth. When sin entered the world through Adam curses also entered. Oh, what a horrible tragedy! Adam who walked in blessings was now cursed. Even the ground itself was cursed. But God who is rich in mercy had a redemptive plan even before creation. That plan was Jesus! He came and willingly laid down His life for our sins and God raised Him from the dead in a marvelous display of His mighty power. Now man could be restored to fellowship with God though the blood of Jesus. What a marvelous plan!

Have you been operating under a curse and maybe not even realized it. I have good news, blessings are in the plan of God for you. To those that accept Jesus and their Savior, they have been redeemed from the curse that the blessings of Abraham might come on us.

Child of God, rejoice you are on the victory side!
