To the world, humans are insatiable but to God out of your belly flows rivers of living water (John 7:38). In the scripture, Abraham wasn't just blessed, he was blessed to bless others ( Genesis 12:2) . Abraham was a man who embraced the unknown, trusting God in the valley and wilderness to show forth what the blessing of God is.
Blessings to many people probably means all good things about life but it goes wide beyond that. It is going through the storms of life and coming out triumphant. In the book of Mark (1:10-13), after all men came to the awareness of who Christ was, he went into the wilderness and he came out being empowered. The wilderness is not often palatable but they are mean through which we become a channel of running over the blessings of God.
In Joshua 2:1-24, Rahab was a woman who was well known as a prostitute but God decided to use her by making her see that her past was never to define her but rather to shapen her. Her cup runs over when she shows mercy to the guest she received. Also, to the Samaritan woman who was despised probably because of her past became a channel to many when she met with Christ.
With hunger and thirst for righteousness your cup runs over. Regardless of the trials and circumstances of life you are a blessing because you are a seed of Abraham. With the breath of God down on your inside, it is never a coincidence that God has called you to run over.
Thank you for reading!
