Ephesians 1-4
from Daily Devotional With Murphy Eyenike Hosted by Murphy Eyenike
Let's take a deep dive into the lessons Paul tries to teach us about God's mysterious plan for our salvation. Paul talks about God's mysterious plan this way; "And this is God's plan: Both Gentiles and Jews who believe the Good News share equally in the riches inherited by God's children. Both are part of the same body, and both enjoy the promise of blessings because they belong to Christ Jesus." Ephesians 3:6 NLT. For everyone who accepts Jesus, whether Gentiles or Jews, together we make up the body of Christ. Gentiles and Jews together enjoy the same promise of God's blessings through Christ. Paul goes on to say; "God’s purpose in all this was to use the church to display his wisdom in its rich variety to all the unseen rulers and authorities in the heavenly places. This was his eternal plan, which he carried out through Christ Jesus our Lord. Because of Christ and our faith in him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God’s presence. " Ephesians 3:10-12 NLT. God's plan of salvation wasn't implemented haphazardly, no, his grand plan was clear as God promised he would right from when man sinned; "And this is the plan: At the right time he will bring everything together under the authority of Christ—everything in heaven and on earth. Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything work out according to his plan. " Ephesians 1:10-11 NLT. Thank you God.
