Jesus attracts blessing

As a believer of the new covenant, you enjoy every blessing of God, not because of you but because of Jesus. Through Jesus, you were given a free passage to the Father in heaven (John 14,6).

The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory. Romans 8,15-17

If you said yes to Jesus, you became a child of God. Now you are like Jesus a son or daughter of God and therefore a co-heir with Christ. God became your father and as His beloved child, you can come to Him anytime and let Him know whatever bothers you. God said about Jesus, that He is His beloved son with whom He is well pleased (Matthew 3,17). Since you are in Jesus, God says the same about you. You are His beloved child and He is well pleased with you.

All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them. John 17,10

Everything that belongs to God, belongs to Jesus also. Jesus in you is like a magnet, that attracts every blessing of God. Therefore, Jesus is the only way to receive God’s blessings. You cannot earn these blessings, you can only let them be freely given to you. And God gives them generously to you (James 1,5). Jesus gave His life for you and me, so that we will come under God’s favour forever. To be under God’s favour means, to receive His unmerited grace and favouritism.

And you will again see the distinction between the righteous and the wicked, between those who serve God and those who do not. Malachi 3,18

Jesus makes all the difference. In Him, you became the righteousness of God (2. Corinthians 5,21). You are now one of the righteous.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever. Psalm 23,6

Jesus lives in you and attracts blessings. His mercy and grace will follow you wherever you go. Therefore, expect good things coming your way daily and remember, that because of Jesus you are under God’s favour.
