What would you like to do, given God delights in you?
Read Ephesians 1:1-14
How much does God delight in you? Ephesians 1:1-14 is one long sentence of praise and adoration to the Lord God Almighty who delights in you. How much God has done for us in Christ is portrayed in these verses. What a great hymn of praise this would make for congregations to sing!
God has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every blessing. Not one is left out. He has given every blessing to you. God hasn’t given more to some and less to others. He’s given every blessing to you and your congregation.
In His great love for you, He chose you before the creation of the world to be His chosen possession, holy and pleasing to Him. He has lavished you with His grace and has forgiven all your sins, past, present and future. He delights in you so much that He has made known to you the mystery of His will. Added to all of this, God has sealed you, protected you and guarded you with His Holy Spirit. God has made sure that you arrive safely at your heavenly home, into His glorious presence.
God delights in you. God loves you. God is mad keen about you. Spend some time regularly today to let that truth sink in. Meditate upon it. Rejoice in it and sing glory to God because of it.
Prayer:
¥ Spend time praising God for the love and grace He has lavished upon you. Spend time praising God for the love He has given to 10 other believers you know.
¥ Ask God to lavish His saving love, granting faith and repentance, to ten other people you know.
