Ephesians 1


3. Paul worshiped both God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ who he says (from prison) had blessed the Ephesian Christians and himself“ with every spiritual blessing in the Heavenly places in Christ.” Underline in your understanding that we Christians (an extension of these Ephesians because the Bible is intended for every Christian throughout the ages) ARE RIGHT NOW receiving “EVERY spiritual blessing in the Heavenly places in Christ.”It is typical of Christians today to greatly question any hard moments in their lives. That is because they haven’t fully grasped the heart of Romans 8:28 – “ALL things work TOGETHER for good to those who love God and are called according to His purpose.” Especially important in that verse are the words ALL and TOGETHER. It is not only the precious, wonderful, obviously blessed moments in life that a Christian should praise God for. The terrible moments, the hard days, weeks, months or years may seem chaotic to us but they are of every purpose in Christ to make us individually who we are meant to become IF we don’t despair and give up our faith in what Christ is doing (1 Thessalonians 5:18). Remember, God made this beautiful world out of chaos. To be blessed with every spiritual blessing is something those without Christ cannot experience.
