IN CHRIST ALONE

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. Ephesians 1:3

Paul makes a remarkably inclusive statement when he says, ‘We have been blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ.’ There is nothing of spiritual substance left out in that statement.

What’s more, it has been given to us ‘in the heavenly realms.’ Whatever else that means, it has cosmic proportions. In the breadth of space and time, we have every spiritual resource we need in our union with Christ.

Therefore it’s essential that we understand what it means to be in Christ. To be in Christ is to be united to His status before the Father.

Paul goes on to say in the Book of Ephesians that we are ‘chosen in Him’; we are recipients of grace ‘in the One He loves’; we have redemption ‘in Him’; His Will for us is purposed ‘in Christ’; our hope is ‘in Christ’; we were sealed by the Holy Spirit ‘in Him’; and we approach the Father ‘in Him' (Ephesians 1:4-13,3:12). *God has nothing to give us outside of Christ and everything to give us in Christ.*

In a modern motoring metaphor, ‘in Christ’ we have a full tank and
the resources to go the distance. Therefore it follows that *the more we know Him, the more we trust Him and the more we relate everything in our lives to Him, the more satisfied we will be in Him.*

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, thank You for all that You are in me, and what I become in You.... Amen🙏🏼
