A Blessed Future

I'd like to tell you about a man named Obed-Edom from the Old Testament. Through a series of events, he came to have the Ark of the Covenant in his home and cared for it for several months. Initially, this seemed like a coincidence, but it turned into a blessing. The Bible describes how he, his children, and their descendants were blessed by the Lord in all aspects of life because of his proper handling of the Ark. In the New Covenant, we are all invited to share in this same blessing from God. If Obed-Edom received such blessings from having a holy object for a few months, how much more will we, who are indwelled by the Spirit of God, be blessed!
