Do not live under the curse.

Do not live under the curse.
“Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:”          Ephesians 2:11-12

To enjoy a lifetime of favour you will have to be born again. This is because the man outside of Christ is under a curse, whether he knows it or not. Our opening scripture shows us that the man that is not born again is without Christ, he has no share in the commonwealth of Israel, the covenant of promise, and is without hope and God in the world. As a result, he cannot have the favour of God working for him.

Till today, because of the commonwealth of Israel that our opening scripture talks about, the Jews still remain one of the most successful people in the world because of that blessing upon them.

This is why it is important for you to be born again. That is only way you can be redeemed from the curse and gain access to the blessing through Jesus Christ.

Galatians 3:13-14 says, “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: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”

Confession.
I declare that Christ hath redeemed me from the curse of the law, being made a curse for me: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: Therefore the blessing of Abraham has come upon me through Jesus Christ; and I have received the promise of the Spirit through faith. Amen.                      

For further study, read:
Ephesians 2:13-19, Colossians 1:20-23, Titus 3:3-7.


Doing the Word:
If you are not born again, we encourage you to pray the prayer of salvation on page 66.
