In Him

Great news, believer! “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:” (Ephesians 1:3).

All Spiritual blessings in heavenly places are in Christ Jesus, through Christ, and by Christ. God chose, elected, purposed, and foreordained that every believer be blessed and endowed with these blessings. Before the foundation of the world this was God’s plan. The Spiritual blessings of forgiveness, justification, sanctification, acceptance. adoption, and sonship are all ours in Christ Jesus.

And God’s word tells us “how” this vital connection with Christ is made. “In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,” (Ephesians 1:13).
