Galatians 3: "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree."

You are redeemed from the curse of the law. The curse of the law was three-fold: poverty, sickness and death. It starts in Deuteronomy 28:15, "Cursed shall be your land, your body. Cursed shall you be when you go in and when you go out."

It says that vexation and rebuke would come upon you. In other words, the curse of the broken law was poverty, sickness and death.

Obviously the opposite is this: instead of poverty He gives wealth. Instead of sickness, He gives health. Instead of death, He gives life.

Now, understanding that, we read Galatians 3:11-13, "But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, the just shall live by faith. And the law is not of faith, but the man that doeth them shall live in them. Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law."

What was the curse of the law? Poverty, sickness and death. Who is redeemed from poverty, sickness and death? You are. What does redeem mean? The curse has no power. It has no ability. It has nothing over you.

You have been redeemed because of what the Anointed One has done for you. "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree." Why did Jesus become a curse on the cross? "That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles."

That long life may come upon you. That physical power may come on you. That your ability to defeat your enemies comes upon you. That covenant and God working with you comes upon you.

That money comes to you when you need it. That you're blessed coming in and blessed going out. That you're blessed in the city and in the field. That your children are blessed. The blessing has come on you.

Scripture Reference: John 3:16; John 10:10; Acts 10:38; 1 John 3:8
