Daily Fountain Devotional 12 June 2026 TOPIC: God’s Promise Fulfilled Through Christ
SCRIPTURE READING: Galatians 3:15-22
15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.
16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
18 For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.
19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.
20 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.
21 Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.
22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
TODAY’S DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE
The Apostle Paul, in his letter to the Galatians, explained the promise God made to Abraham regarding blessing the whole world. This promise of God to Abraham actually referred to the gift of salvation in Christ and all the resulting spiritual blessings. Although Abraham had other children, he gave gifts to them but Isaac received the covenant of God’s abundant blessing (Gen. 25:5&6). Isaac was the father of Jacob while Jacob gave birth to Judah. God chose the tribe of Judah to ultimately fulfil the covenant of blessing all the nations of the world through the Lord Jesus Christ. All the blessings of Abraham have become the possessions of all believers in Jesus Christ.
Beloved, all the blessings of life are located in Jesus Christ, beginning with the blessing of salvation and redemption. Every spiritual benefit is derived through Christ Jesus, the Mediator of the New Covenant (Eph. 1:3-6). It is therefore through faith in Christ that everyone can access the blessings attached to salvation in Christ Jesus.
These blessings: healing, deliverance, restoration, as well as spiritual and material prosperity, are limitless. Those who are of Christ continue to enjoy His blessings because Jesus Christ is the fulfilment of the blessings of Abraham on mankind.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I claim your blessings in Christ today in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
