Have you not heard that through Christ Jesus, we are Israel of God? Yes, you carry God’s blessings all the time. I remind you: “I will be to the people of Israel like rain in a dry land. They will blossom like flowers; they will be firmly rooted like the trees of Lebanon. They will be alive with new growth, and beautiful like olive trees.

They will be fragrant like the cedars of Lebanon. Once again, they will live under my protection. They will grow crops of grain and be fruitful like a vineyard. They will be as famous as the wine of Lebanon.” (Psalm 14:5-7 GNT).
