Text: Ephesians 1:6


*ESV:

To the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved.

*ETS:
Praise God, praise God, PRAISE GOD! He has abundantly blessed us in Christ..

*DTFTD:


Have you ever been taken up in praise to God? In verse six, Paul is being taken up in praise to God. Focused on God’s glory and grace, Paul responds with words of blessing to God. You can’t learn praise, you can only learn of God’s blessings which, when well considered, should result in a passionate praise to God.

*EDS:


Meditate on God’s blessings in your life until, without effort, praise from your heart moves your lips to exalt him.


INGREDIENTS: Praise to God; A reflection on God’s grace; A thought of our blessings in Christ. Word Study: The word “beloved” is “agapao.” The word in the text should be understood to mean, “in the One who was loved.” God’s love for those who are adopted by grace is equal to his love for Christ (John 17:23).
