Bless Our God

Bless Our God

We are to eulogize God for all the benefits and advantages He has given to us as His children.

Ephes. 1:3, Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

God has blessed you and me as believers with an abundance of spiritual supports and advantages, and He has already filled our existence with marvelous grace. He has “blessed [us] with all spiritual blessings” (Eph. 1:3), and for this He should be “blessed,” by each of us bringing joy to His heart, praise to His greatness, exaltation to His holy Name, and eulogies by our thoughts and words. God is worthy of our praises, commendations, being spoken well of, and worshipped in the utmost significant ways with our souls soaring to the most sublime heights!

Recognizing the Lord this way encourages us to endure the discomforts of life’s reverses, become good stewards of His gifts and assets, give ourselves openhandedly to his work as living sacrifices, and truly offer Him the utmost praise and thanks for His generosities towards us. This is one key to acknowledging His blessings and being more optimistic and hopeful during major reverses. We must trust Him to satisfy our needs and generate this fruit in us. 

We have received every spiritual blessing from God through Jesus Christ. Certainly, we are right to be thankful and appreciative people who readily admit our needs and our utter dependence upon Him for everything. Simultaneously, our perception of Christ should be heighted, escalated, and advanced! God has already met our spiritual needs and can be trusted with each moment of each day, and He is willing to meet our material needs as well as we trust Him and give ourselves without restraint to His purposes. This is especially true for those who have sacrificed their needs to see His plans advanced still.

What should we do then? Give yourself permission to focus on this idea…allow yourself to understand this in a more meaningful capacity. His provisions for His people are complete, in every area of our lives. Appropriate that truth proportionately and compartmentally. We need to keep this uppermost in our contemplations. Life is filled with all types of anxieties, imperfections, frustrations, and disappointments but let us choose to believe God and trust Him to be our absolute Source, Supply, and Satisfier through His manifold blessings! This is just one key to being more optimistic and hopeful in all our experiences. We must persevere by trusting our Lord has provided for and does satisfy our needs still in our Lord Jesus Christ.
