  • Daily Devotional: Ephesians 3:14-21

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 3:14-21

    Because God has made Himself known, Paul bows his knees before the Father. He is the one who created and names every family in heaven and on the earth. Paul continues to pray that the Father would grant the saints to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man so that Christ…

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 3:1-13

    Paul calls the inclusion of the gentiles into God’s kingdom people by the proclamation of the gospel a mystery that was not revealed until Christ. Even though Paul is a great sinner, he gets to proclaim the unfathomable riches of Christ, administering the mystery that was hidden for so long—the gospel for the gentiles. We…

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 2:17-22

    Paul quotes Isaiah 57:19, in which He declares peace to all peoples of the earth—those near to Him and those far from Him as proof that God is the God of all people, not only the Jews. He is building one spiritual nation for Himself, not two. Through Christ, both Jew and Gentile have their…

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 2:11-16

    Therefore, because God is making dead people alive in a way that excludes human boasting in self, the saints remember that they were at one time separated from Christ. We were excluded from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hop and without God in this world. Since it…

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 2:1-10

    After praying that the saints may grow in all wisdom and knowledge, that their eyes of their hearts may be enlightened, Paul writes of their wretchedness. They were, past tense because they are not in Christ, dead in their trespasses and sins. When we speak of our wretched estate and that of those in our…

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 1:13-23

    The saints believed the gospel message when they heard it and were sealed in Christ by the giving of the Holy Spirit. A seal is something placed on an official letter making that letter the property of one person. If anyone other than the approved person breaks that seal, consequences ensue. King Jesus’s seal is…

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 1:7-12

    In the Beloved (i.e. Christ; cf. v. 6) we have redemption through His blood. Paul defines this redemption as “the forgiveness of trespasses according to the riches of His grace which He lavished on us.” Those who are in Christ, then, have been entirely forgiven of their sins. God doesn’t merely apply a sufficient amount…

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 1:1-6

    Introduction: The Apostle, Paul, wrote Ephesians from prison in AD 60-62 to the saints. While the letter certainly made it to Ephesus, it may have simply been written “to the saints,” because “at Ephesus” is missing from three early manuscripts. The tone of Ephesians is more generic than Paul’s other letters. The letter is about…
