GENESIS 13:1-2
Then Abram went up from Egypt, he and his wife and all that he had, and Lot with him, to the South, Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.

William Penn, the founder of the commonwealth of Pennsylvania, was well liked by the Indians. Once they told him he could have as much of their land as he could encompass on foot in a single day. So early the next morning, he started out and walked until late that night.
When he finally went to claim his land, the Indians were greatly surprised, for they didn’t think he would take them seriously. But they kept their promise and gave him a large tract of land. Today that area is Philadelphia.
God also made a promise to Abraham: “I will bless you” (Gen. 12:2-3). Even though Abraham made mistakes and sometimes failed to trust the Lord fully, God never went back on His promise. He blessed Abraham materially until he was “very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.” More important, He blessed Abraham spiritually.

God declared in Genesis 22:17-18, “In blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies. In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.” Through Abraham’s descendants came the Messiah, who brought the blessing of salvation to all nations.
God continues to bless today just as He has promised. Though we quickly forget them, God’s blessings are all around us. He allows some of us to be the stewards of His material blessings, but He gives all of us the opportunity to enjoy His spiritual blessings.

His salvation, forgiveness and lovingkindness are promised blessings that God will never forget.
Rejoice today in your blessings. Rest confidently in the truth that what God has promised, He will never take away.
ENJOY THE RICHES THAT ARE YOURS BECAUSE YOU ARE HIS.
