You Are Because He Is
Today, as I continued to study the book of Ephesians, I started writing out what God says about us. As I did, I was reminded of what we’ve been given because of who He is. Maybe today, like me, you need to be reminded of who you are in Christ. Remember today, we are
- blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places (1:3);
- chosen to be holy and blameless (1:4);
- predestined for adoption according to His will (1:5);
- blessed in the Beloved (1:6);
- redeemed, forgiven, and lavished with grace (1:8);
- sealed with the promised Holy Spirit (1:13).
And all these things are true because of His
- love (1:4),
- blood (1:7),
- grace (1:7),
- purpose and plan (1:9-11).
Once you’ve soaked that in, then be about the Father’s business in the fullness of His power and strength!
