GOOD NEWS FOR YOUR WEEK

TGIM - Thank God It's Monday!


THE WORD IS: "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ." Ephesians 1:3


THE POINT IS: God created us to bless us. He's not a scrooge or a stingy ogre. Far from it! He is a loving Heavenly Father. As such, He is the most generous benefactor of all. He delights in lavishing His blessings upon us. God chose to do this by giving us the very best�Himself. Therefore, He sent His Son Jesus Christ to us, in order that we might receive Him and experience His life. Hence, you are blessed, if you are "in Christ."


THE APPLICATION IS: The question is, are you in Christ? In order to be "in Christ," you must receive Christ. Once you do, He comes into you and joins Himself to you. As a result, you are "in Christ." You become one with Him through a Divine union. All the spiritual resources of the heavenly realm, which are in Christ, are now in you. Therefore, through Christ these spiritual blessings have become available to you. What are these spiritual blessings? The spiritual blessings are everything that God is and has. They are the very nature and character of God�the fruit of the Spirit. These blessings are embodied in the person of Jesus Christ Himself. While the primary blessing is eternal life in Christ, God also wants to bless you with the temporal things of this world. He will do this, as He deems appropriate, through Christ who is the Source of all things. When you are in Christ, you have all that He is: His life, His presence, and His power. In Christ, you are truly blessed!!!


Have a great week,
Lewis & Lue Gregory
