“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places…”
Ephesians 1:3 ESV
God has chosen to bless you with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places. As a saint, with Christ residing within us we have been blessed to the same extent which Christ has. Messing with your head? It should, and that’s why Paul praises God the Father for doing this!
How does this work? Simply put, Christ lives within us and every spiritual blessing lives within Christ. Paul goes on to list some of these spiritual blessings; chosen before the foundation of the world, chosen to be holy and blameless before Him, adopted through Christ, redeemed through His blood, forgiven of our trespasses, recipients of the riches of God’s grace, chosen as God’s own possession and sealed with the Holy Spirit.
Yup, that’s what blessing feels like – more than we deserve or could earn in our own merits. You can’t get to the end of that list without saying ‘thank you Jesus.’ You truly are blessed.
