Topic: You Are Already Blessed
“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 KJV
God is not planning to bless you in the distant future. You are not an accidental creation of God whom He is trying to sort out. No. You are an integral part of God’s agenda. Even before you appeared on the scene, He had made full provision for your wellbeing.
Yesterday, we read that God’s desire is that we prosper. So, if you are not prospering, it is not about God; it is all about you and all you need to do is to connect with God and live by the proceeding Word of His mouth. Today, I have come to reiterate the fact that God is not about to bless you in the future. No! You are already blessed.
Our scripture for today is emphatic that God has blessed us with ALL spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ. So are you in Christ? The spiritual blessings are available to you and with the spiritual blessings comes the physical manifestation because the spirit world controls the natural. Everything you see in the physical first happens in the Spirit realm. So, if God has blessed you in the realm of the Spirit, the manifestation is guaranteed. However, the devil loves to hold the believer down through self-condemnation and God did not leave us unprepared. In the very next verse He declared: “Long ago, even before he made the world, God chose us to be his very own through what Christ would do for us; he decided then to make us holy in his eyes, without a single fault—we who stand before him covered with his love.” Ephesians 1:4 (TLB)
Did you see that? God has made you holy in His eyes without a single fault through what Christ has done for us. Now you can stand boldly and exert your authority knowing that the devil has no choice but to obey. Stop living below your privileged position. Arise and walk in your blessing because you are already blessed.
