Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: According as He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love: Ephesians 1:3-4
Our Father has blessed us with how many spiritual blessings? Our Father has blessed us with all of His blessings and He has done it so that we can be holy and without blame! And where do we have all of these spiritual blessings, in Christ? And where are we now? At that day ye shall know that I am in the Father, and ye in Me, and I in you. John 14:20
We were chosen by our Father in Christ before this earth was even made! Everything Jesus has, we have, we are joint-heirs with Him, and as God proclaims, And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: Ephesians 2:6 We are in Jesus right now and we have been raised up to sit with Him in Heavenly places, so that all, each and every, spiritual blessing is ours right now! There is nothing that Jesus has been given by God that we have not become one with through Him. For we are members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones. Ephesians 5:30
A-men we have been given all by our Father. We haven’t been given just some of our Fathers blessings, we aren’t just partially filled with some of God’s blessings, through Christ we are one with all of them. The glorious Truth that has set us free is that God has given us all of His blessings. Shout it out loud, "I have been given all spiritual blessings by God Himself!"
So why hasn’t our Father limited our blessings? Why has He given us all spiritual blessings? Well, He gave us all so that we can be holy and without blame! I hope you are not getting tired of hearing that we are holy, that we are perfect, righteous, sanctified, glorified, and joint-heirs through Christ, because we have so many more daily studies of scriptural Truth's from our Father that say that we are. We will study every one too. No one will be able to say that we base our faith on a few verses and no one will be able to say we are taking these verses out of context.
We absolutely and positively have to lay the foundation of the gifts that have been freely given us because we have been chosen by God. Why? Because our Father wants us to have it all and the world so desperately needs us to be as our Father is on this earth. Let’s face it religion has failed. Abortion is accepted, we can’t talk about the Word of God in schools, divorce, sickness, homosexuality, and fear are wide spread, and how many different churches are there anyway? The world needs us to be what and who these verses proclaim we are in Christ, and with God, we can’t help but be! And before Jesus returns we will be! That He might present it to Himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. Ephesians 5:27
