Celebration of Christ: Jesus, the God of Abraham


Our Lord Jesus Christ is not just the son of a poor carpenter, He is also the Son of the Most High God. He is the second Person of the Blessed Trinity. He is even the God of our father, Abraham. In the gospel of John 8:51-59, when Jesus told his fellow Jews that "Your father Abraham rejoiced that he was to see my day; he saw it and was glad.” The Jews said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?” Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.” It is only the I am that can exist before Abraham. Since Jesus existed before Abraham, He is therefore the God of Abraham and the God of the whole world. To him be glory and praise both now and forevermore ~ Amen!

Inspirational Message: The God of Abraham is the God of our ancestors. Jesus is the God of our ancestors.

Prayer against ancestral spirits: Lord Jesus Christ, you are the God of Abraham and the God of our ancestors. Besides you, there is no other gods. Lord Jesus, deliver us from ancestral spirits. Deliver us from idol worship and from ancestral bondage. Grant this through the same Christ our Lord ~ Amen!
