Eph.

1:5

---

“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, even as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy, and blameless before Him. In love He predestined us for adoption to Himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of His will.” God chose us before He made the world. He had planned for His Son to die in our stead even before He made us. He blesses us with everything we need and gives us the gift of His Holy Spirit. Not only does this verse remind us of His love for us, but it also says: “Even as He chose us before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy, and blameless in Him.” We need to live our lives in a way that is worthy of His sacrifice. We can never repay God for what He did for us, and we can never earn His forgiveness, but we can live our lives in a way that glorifies Him. Ask Him for help and by the power of the Holy Spirit, and He will give you every spiritual blessing you need to be holy and blameless in Him.
