God’s blessings are as infinite and eternal as he is himself.
If we personalise them, we have a powerful list of affirmations. Here are some of them–
- I am blessed with every spiritual blessing (Ephesians 1:3)
- I am redeemed (1:7)
- I am forgiven (1:7)
- I am included in Christ (1:13)
- I am seated in heavenly places (2:6)
- I am God’s workmanship (2:10)
- I have access to the Father (2:18).
- I am a fellow citizen with God’s people (2:19).
- I am a dwelling place for God’s Spirit (2:22).
- I am a member of one body (3:6).
- I share in the promise of Christ (3:6).
- I can approach God with freedom (3:13).
- God is able to do immeasurably more than I can ask or imagine (3:20).
We need to keep reminding ourselves of these great truths.
