REDEEMED THAT THE BLESSINGS MIGHT COME ! One of the problems with many religious people years that they tried to do good things to merit favor with God. There is a religious group calling themselves the Israelites; who are trying to get people back under the law of Moses: We Are Living under Grace, not the Law. They are doing things from the outward perspective to show themselves as true Israelites. If you try to do good works to build up credit with God, the word says you put yourself under the curse of the Law. When I mentioned the law I am talking about the 10 Commandments. "For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse (Galatians 3: 10). To be under the curse of the Law means to be subject to the curses, which are poverty, sickness, and spiritual death. In (Romans 10: 1 through 8) says, "Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. For Christ is the in of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, that demand which doeth those things shall live by them. Verse 6: but That the righteousness which is of faith speaks on this wise, say not in thine heart, who shall ascend into heaven ? That is to bring Christ down from above: or, who shall descend into the deep ? That is, to bring up the price again from the dead. But what saith it ? The word is not thee, even in thy mouth, and in thine heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; read verses 9 through 21. Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law that the blessings of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ who is our righteousness. (Galatians 3: 13-15). I am a child of God and an heir with Jesus. Abraham's blessings are mine: The Word says he was blessed coming in and blessed going out, blessed in the city and blessed in the field. He was blessed all over more than anywhere else ! People of God need to realize that when we were redeemed from the curse of the Law, We Were Not redeemed from the blessings. They belong to us. If you have been born again, Abraham's blessings are yours. We are the redeemed----not going to be someday, we are now ! Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he had redeemed from the hand of the enemy (Psalms 107:2). Some might ask, "why do we still get sick if we are redeemed from the curse of the Law ? Let me ask you another question: Jesus redeemed the world from sin, Didn't He ? Then why do folks still sin ? They are redeemed from sin, yet they go on sinning. You see, you can do it if you want to; God is not going to come against your will: simply putting it you want to do it. Just because we are redeemed from the curse of the law doesn't mean that no one will ever sin in our be sick again. Redemption is yours, you must choose; but you must walk in it. Paul Said, "Sin shall not have dominion over you." And the body is not you ! It shouldn't have, but it is up to you. You must modify the deeds of your flesh: your body, just as the children of Israel had to go in and possess the land that God had given to them, we must use our authority to command sickness and sin to stay out of our lives. We have been redeemed from the curse of the Law, but we must go in and possess that which is already ours. Redemption is our promise land. "If you be willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land (Isaiah 1:19).
