"In Him, Inheritance"

“In Him, Inheritance”
Blessings folk!
To this point in Ephesians we have seen at least two important repeated phrases.. - “in Him” - “to the praise of His glory...”
See what we learn...
Ephesians 1:11-12
11 In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will, 12 so that we who were the first to hope in Christ might be to the praise of his glory.
In Him...
  • -  we have obtained an inheritance...those who believe unto salvation
  • -  we have predestined for this according to the purpose of Him who works al things
    according to the counsel of His will. The wonder and glory of the Godhead (a word that has been eliminated from contemporary translations...to the our detriment.)
    What is the outcome?
    - so that we might be to the praise of His glory

    As Believers we are not to forget this.
    We have obtained an inheritance...now and to come. We are predestined.
    We have purpose in the Most High.
    He works all things according to His counsel.

    We are to the praise of the glory of His grace.
    Therefore,
    Why worry?
    Why fret?
    Why be anxious? Why fear?

    Live in the inheritance that is yours...to the praise of the glory of HIs grace...
