They cruelly stripped Joseph of his colourful tunic, threw him in a pit and then sold him as a slave. Whether we find ourselves in a pit by hatred of others, of our own making by sin, of regret and grief, we have hope through the Gospel because we are favoured of our Father in heaven.

Ephesians 1:1-6 Blessings in Christ
22/01/2023 Duración: 48minSynopsis: God has revealed Himself through His Word, and through the person of Jesus Christ, so we can know and follow Him. God has revealed in Paul’s letter to the Ephesian church that we are blessed with ‘every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places’ because we are ‘in Christ’. However, we may not realise the significance of these blessings and we can live our lives as if we’re spiritually poor when we’re actually spiritually rich beyond measure. Considering the implications of these spiritual blessings should cause us to draw closer to God and trust in Him more, ‘to the praise of His glory’ Verses in order of appearance: Romans 10:9 Ephesians 1:1-2 Ephesians 1:3 Ecclesiastes 2:10-11 Ephesians 1:4 Revelations 2:5 Philippians 1:6 Hebrews 10:14 Romans 8:1 Colossians 1:19-22 Ephesians 1:5 Galatians 4:6-7 Deuteronomy 7:7-8 Deuteronomy 9:6 Ephesians 1:6
