The Kitchen Table Devotional
Galatians 3 Day 3
“THE RIGHTEOUS MAN SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.” 12 However, the Law is not of faith; on the contrary, “HE WHO PRACTICES THEM SHALL LIVE BY THEM.” 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us—for it is written, “CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO HANGS ON A TREE”— 14 in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we would receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Galatians 3:11-14
The righteous man lives by faith, but then so also does the wretched man. The difference is that the righteous man puts his faith in the One while the wretched man puts his faith in the many. Jesus died because you can’t trust in the many and Jesus died a cursed death on a tree for us so that we could live in the blessed life of God. Faith looks, leans, and lives trusting in the word, work, and will of God. Just like Abraham, this person lives the blessed life of the Spirit as he learns to let go of the cursed life of the skin. Take God at His word, completely.
