“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ.”
Paul says that we have already been blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ. God is not holding anything back from His kids. We are talking about every spiritual blessing and benefit that Jesus has brought us from heaven. God has already said yes to every blessing we need in our life.
The Message Bible says: “How blessed is God! And what a blessing he is! He’s the Father of our Master, Jesus Christ, and takes us to the high places of blessing in him.”
All that heaven has to offer is now available to us in Christ Jesus. It’s God the Father’s idea that we have them. But these blessings are kept safe and sound, reserved for us in the heavenly realm. We must enter by faith in the name of Jesus and receive the blessings God desires us to have in Christ Jesus.
I give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ and for all the blessings that are mine in heavenly places.
