You’ve read about the blessings God gave the Israelites. But did you know these blessings are also meant for you?
In this accessible, practical book, pastor and international leader Paul Thangiah traces the blessings that Jacob gave his twelve sons in Genesis and parallels them with the blessings Moses gave the twelve tribes in Deuteronomy. With keen insight into Jewish history and wonderful stories from today, Thangiah follows this thread through the Old Testament and into the New Testament, where the twelve blessings are fulfilled powerfully in Jesus Christ.
As you discover what it means to be grafted into the people of God through Christ, you’ll be encouraged and empowered to live within the blessings that have been passed down through millennia of God’s people to you.
Claim your spiritual inheritance – the full riches of God’s promises and blessings – and be forever changed.
