DEFINITION of BLESSING:  GOD'S FAVOR or
                                 empowerment to success. (
INVISIBLE Force
Example: Wind.. What is the wind?
Seeing the trees move or sway!
Seeing a piece of paper moving up street!
NO, these are 'Effects' of the wind.
The wind is a INVISIBLE force just as :
The BLESSING IS INVISIBLE..

First, let's set some foundation
about 'THE BLESSING' 
or God's FAVOR.. 
PSALMS 129:8."The Blessing of the Lord be upon you." 
MALACHI 3:10." Pour YOU out a blessing, that
there shall not be room enough to receive it" 
1 PETER 3:9.."..YOU may INHERIT a Blessing.."

DEUTERONOMY 27:18..
"I set before you a BLESSING and a curse"
EPHESIANS 1:3. "May blessing be to
the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
(The Messiah) WHO has Blessed US in Christ 
with EVERY Spiritual Blessing
(given by the Holy Spirit)
IN Heavenly Places."

Note: The SECRET is :
ALL YOU________________ (place your name here)
need is already There for YOU.. 
IT'S A GIFT..IT'S FREE..

EPHESIANS 3:6.."This MYSTERY is that through
the GOSPEL the GENTILES (YOU) are HEIRS
with ISRAEL, members TOGETHER of one body,
and SHARES together in the PROMISE in
Jesus Christ."

WHAT PROMISE?
GENESIS 12:2 " I will make YOU into a great
nation and I will BLESS YOU;
I will make YOUR name great, and 
make YOU A BLESSING.."

WHAT IS YOUR INHERITANCE?
The Book of Genesis is the book of beginnings:
THE BOOK OF BLESSINGS:
Follow the inheritance line:
ABRAHAM...ISSAC...JACOB..JOSEPH..JESUS....
YOU (If you've accepted Jesus) 
(YES , YOU if you will RECEIVE IT..) 
JOHN 8:33.."WE are descendant's of Abraham."

WHAT IS THE PROMISE TO ABRAHAM??
7 PARTS: GOD'S COVENANT WITH ABRAHAM
#1. "I will make of thee a GREAT NATION."
Genesis 12: 1-3; 13:16; 17:18-20
Genesis 24: 34,35       GALATIANS 3
#2. "I will make YOUR NAME GREAT."
          Genesis 12: 1-3; Exodus 2:24,25; 6:3-8

        Genesis 12: 1-3; GALATIANS 3: 13,14

WHAT IS THE QUALIFICATION FOR THIS INHERITANCE?
BIRTH NOT PERFORMANCE..
you can't earn it by works---
IT'S A GIFT!!
 

(Performance will come with the New Birth)
(But,with the New Birth, comes INSIDE YOU
comes INSIDE YOU----the HOLY Spirit)
NOTE: Just as we were born into sin by Adam
We had NO choice! 
BUT, JESUS WON THIS BACK!!

Also, When we are BORN AGAIN, we are born again
through JESUS CHRIST who RESTORED
the born again believer BACK TO Adam.
We have no choice! The Gifts and Promises
come with the Choice of Jesus.
But
YOU MUST RECEIVE IT FOR YOURSELF..

If Satan comes to lie, steal and kill..
You must Have something for Him to try to steal!
Satan knows your rights..DO YOU????

Are you aware of your PROMISES and RIGHTS??
READ EPHESIANS 1...

1 PETER 1: 3.
" In his great mercy he has given
us NEW BIRTH into a LIVING HOPE 
through the Resurrection of JESUS CHRIST
from the dead, and into an INHERITANCE 
that can never perish." 

THIS IS GOOD NEWS... THE GOSPEL..
