The blessing of Abraham has been released to all who believe in Jesus Christ. Resurrection life has been gifted through the Son so that even though we die we will live.
Yet to receive this blessing we must enter His resurrection; and to enter His resurrection we must first enter His death.
Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and anyone who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
Matthew 10:37-39
There is no such thing as a partial death. To enter His death is to walk away from everything that the world has given to us; father, boat, nets, job, future inheritance.
When he had gone a little farther, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John in a boat, preparing their nets. Without delay he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed him.
Mark 1:19-20
As we enter His death we leave behind the inheritance the world has given us to receive the inheritance that the Lord has prepared for us.
Peter said to him, “We have left everything to follow you!” “I tell you the truth,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age (homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—and with them, persecutions) and in the age to come, eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”
Mark 10:28-31
His death is the gateway to His life. When we enter his death on day one, then we will live on day three. But remember the second day where He leaves us empty before He fills us with His glory.
