Eph 1:3
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: KJV
All praise and glory be to God!
I have been given–you have been given–ALL spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ!
(You are in Christ, aren’t you?)
What do you lack? Nothing! What do you need? Nothing!
2 Pe 1:3
According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: KJV
We have been given every blessing and all things that pertain unto life and godliness!
What is excluded from every? Nothing.
What is excluded from all? Nothing.
What is included in every? All
What is included in all? Every.
Then, continuing in his letter to the Ephesians, Paul lists all the spiritual blessings that we have been given (v. 4-11)
- we are chosen in Him
- we are adopted by and in Him
- we are accepted in the beloved
- we have redemption through His blood
- we have the forgiveness of sins
- we are given wisdom
- we are given prudence
- we are given to know the mystery of His will
- we are given an inheritance
Glory!! You should be shouting by the time you finish reading that list.
Lift up your eyes during these dark days and rejoice in the goodness of the Lord for what He has done for you.
