Showers of blessings
Ephesians 1:3-6 "Blessed and worthy of praise be the GOD and FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST , who has blessed us with every Spiritual blessing in the Heavenly realms in CHRIST, just as in HIS LOVE. HE chose us in CHRIST before the foundation of the world, so that we would be Holy and blameless in HIS sight. In love. HE predestined and lovingly planned for us to be adopted to HIMSELF as HIS OWN children through JESUS CHRIST, in accordance with the kind intention and good pleasure of HIS Will—to the praise of HIS Glorious Grace and favor, which HE so freely bestowed on us in the Beloved SON , JESUS CHRIST."
The letter to the Ephesians begins by acknowledging GOD as the foundation or Source of all our Spiritual blessings and obviously the physical blessings too. HE is worthy to be praised and given thanks. Paul acknowledged that GOD has not only blessed us with Spiritual Blessings but HE has chosen us in CHRIST to be Holy thus to be purpose driven beings. Not only that but HE also predestined and lovingly planned for us to be adopted to Himself as HIS own children.
From what we read in all these verses, it is clear that CHRIST is the Master Key. Nothing between us and GOD is meaningful without CHRIST at the centre. Only CHRIST gi es meaning to our relationship with GOD. Therefore, this challenges us and calls us to do self introspection, and do Spiritual checks on our relationship with CHRIST. Without CHRIST in this Spiritual equation, our lives are meaningless and. everything we endeavour is in vain. Let us accept this Master Key to give meaning to our lives Amen.
Blessings and Shalom
