welcome to the living word of God in Genesis chapter 48 as Israel’s life was coming to an end at the age of 147
I tell you let’s read in verse 3 then Jacob said to Joseph God almighty appeared to me at least in the land of Canaan and blessed me and he said to me behold I will make you fruitful and multiply you and I will make you a multitude of people and give this land to your descendants after you as an everlasting possession
oh I tell you brothers and sisters that same promise of God to Israel to give him the land for everlasting possession to bless him to multiply him and make him people of multitudes is the same promise of blessing to each one of us today God is promising us that if we only follow him if we only allow him to direct our life he is promising us today that he will be with us he will bless us
to multiply exceedingly and he will give us that new heaven and new earth as an everlasting possession don’t you believe in that promise don’t you want to be blessed like how God bless the children of Israel living in the land of Egypt was but was blessed that is the same God that we worship today he never goes back on his promises he is a God who never fails but he is a faithful God who keeps his promises and he promises us that if we only ask him believing he will fulfill all our desires he has promised us that he is going to come again had he not said let not your heart be troubled you believe in God believe also in me I go to prepare a place and I will come again has he not told in the book of revelation I am coming quickly and my word is with me I tell you the promise to give us that everlasting possession is still for us if we only claim it God bless. Amen
