Someone may say, "God bless you." Will God bless you? God will bless you with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ (Ephesians 1:3). Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ receives all the blessings of God. You need not beg God to bless you. You need not struggle and strive to receive God's every blessing. They are ours to receive by faith in Christ alone.
What are God's blessings for you? In the first chapter of Ephesians several of those blessings are mentioned. You receive God's love, grace, peace, truth, forgiveness, and wisdom, through the Holy Spirit. There are countless more blessings for you not only in this age, but also in the age to come (Ephesians 1:21). Receive every blessing in Christ.
Why will God bless you? Because of His love and grace in Christ, to the praise of the glory of His grace (Ephesians 1:6). Grace means that the blessings of God come to you as the gift of God in Christ. A gift cannot be bought nor earned. God's blessings are by grace alone in Christ alone.
Will you thank God for blessing you? Praise God from whom all blessings flow! Praise is the expression of a grateful heart to God for all of His blessings in Christ. Worship is giving thanks and praise to God through our prayers and songs. Praise God, because you are blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ.
