A Precious Promise: BLESSED
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, Ephesians 1:3
Thoughts:
When we, by faith, accept Jesus as our Savior, we receive so much more than salvation! We receive an abundance of blessings!
As Believers in Christ, we have received every spiritual blessing, that means we have been given all we will ever need to succeed in this life.
In fact, in the book of Ephesians alone, there are a total of 54 Spiritual Blessings listed in Chapters 1 thru 3 that believers receive!
These blessings of God should outweigh any difficulties of the present time, and they should remind us that we are loved, provided for, and protected in the present as well as in the future.
As we consider God’s gift of salvation, His many promises to us, all the spiritual blessings received in Christ, and the promise of Jesus return and His coming Kingdom, we should be brought into a constant state of joy, no matter what our current situation might be.
So, memorize today’s verse and share it with other believers! Know that in Christ you are very blessed!
Prayer:
Dear God,
As Your child, who has believed and received Your Son, Jesus, as my Savior and Lord, I come before You now in prayer to claim all of the promises and spiritual blessings that You have for me in the heavenly places.
Father God, what You have purposed in Heaven for me, I ask You, in the name of Jesus, to bring to earth for me so that I might walk in Your blessings and promises daily.
May You bless me and protect me. May You smile on me and be gracious to me May You show me Your favor and give me Your peace. For nothing in this world can compare to Your promises and the blessings given by You. Thank You, God. In Jesus precious name I pray. Amen
(This prayer is based on Ephesians 1:3, Psalm 138:8, Numbers 6:24-26, 2 Peter 1:4)
