TEXT: EPHESIANS 1:1-14
BELIEVERS’ UNSURPASSED BLESSINGS IN CHRIST
This introduction summarises what Apostle Paul was about to share with the believers in Ephesus: “All who have trusted in Christ possess the priceless bounty of all ‘spiritual blessings’” (1:3). Yet many continue to live like paupers.
Paul writes this epistle to make Christians more aware of their heavenly wealth in Christ and to motivate them to draw upon those resources in their earthly walk.
Our reading for today explains the spiritual blessings available to those who have genuinely placed their trust in Christ (vs. 3, 4). These blessings have been available in Christ since the foundation of the world.
Believers’ spiritual blessings are not afterthoughts. We shouldn’t fear what the devil can do if we walk in holiness and without blame before God.
QUESTION
Do you recognise your unsurpassed blessings in Christ?
PRAYER
O Lord, make me to always remember Your unsurpassed blessings in my life, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
