His Power and His Blessing

Ephesians 1:3

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places,

The fullness of everything that we need and the fullness of everything that will satisfy us is held in the hands of our risen Savior, Jesus Christ.  And He dwells in us that we may draw on His power and His blessings.

Man can never be counted on to stand by us through all circumstances.  At some point, all men will fail one another.  The Lord, Jesus, never fails us.  He is with us even under the direst circumstances, even the ones that we have created ourselves.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, we thank You for the loving kindness, the mercy and the grace that You provide to us through Your Son.  We pray that You show us how to turn to Jesus first in all things.  Strengthen us so that we may leave behind our reliance on a fallen world.  Prepare us to stand before You one day in the image of Your Son.
