“Now all of us, whether Jews or Gentiles, may come to God the
Father with the Holy Spirit’s help because of what Christ has done for us. Now You
Are No Longer Strangers To God And Foreigners To Heaven, But You Are Members Of
God’s Very Own Family, citizens of God’s country, and you belong in God’s
household with every other Christian.”
From: GOD THE FATHER, THE LORD
JESUS CHRIST HIS SON and Ministered through the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, The Helper, that He may be
with you forever. [John 14:16]
Subject: MY WORD; John 1:1 (NKJV) 1 In the
beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:14 (NKJV) 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us,
and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full
of grace and truth.
Ephesians 1:4–14 (The Living Bible) 4 Long ago, even before he made the world, God chose us to be his very own through what Christ would do for us; he decided then to make us holy in his eyes, without a single fault—we who stand before him covered with his love. 5 His unchanging plan has always been to adopt us into his own family by sending Jesus Christ to die for us. And he did this because he wanted to! 6 Now all praise to God for his wonderful kindness to us and his favor that he has poured out upon us because we belong to his dearly loved Son. 7 So overflowing is his kindness toward us that he took away all our sins through the blood of his Son, by whom we are saved; 8 and he has showered down upon us the richness of his grace—for how well he understands us and knows what is best for us at all times. 9 God has told us his secret reason for sending Christ, a plan he decided on in mercy long ago; 10 and this was his purpose: that when the time is ripe he will gather us all together from wherever we are—in heaven or on earth—to be with him in Christ forever. 11 Moreover, because of what Christ has done, we have become gifts to God that he delights in, for as part of God’s sovereign plan we were chosen from the beginning to be his, and all things happen just as he decided long ago. 12 God’s purpose in this was that we should praise God and give glory to him for doing these mighty things for us, who were the first to trust in Christ. 13 And because of what Christ did, all you others too, who heard the Good News about how to be saved, and trusted Christ, were marked as belonging to Christ by the Holy Spirit, who long ago had been promised to all of us Christians. 14 His presence within us is God’s guarantee that he really will give us all that he promised; and the Spirit’s seal upon us means that God has already purchased us and that he guarantees to bring us to himself. This is just one more reason for us to praise our glorious God.
Ephesians 1:18–23 (CJB) 18 I pray that he will give
light to the eyes of your hearts, so that you will understand the hope to which
he has called you, what rich glories there are in the inheritance he has
promised his people, 19 and how surpassingly great is his power
working in us who trust him. It works with the same mighty strength he used 20
when he worked in the Messiah to raise him from the dead and seat him at his
right hand in heaven, 21 far above every ruler, authority,
power, dominion or any other name that can be named either in the ‘olam
hazeh or in the ‘olam haba. 22 Also, he has put all things under his feet and made
him head over everything for the Messianic Community, 23 which is
his body, the full expression of him who fills all creation.
Ephesians 2:1–10 (ESV) 1 And you were dead in the trespasses and sins 2
in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the
prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of
disobedience— 3 among whom we all once lived in the passions of
our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by
nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. 4 But God, being
rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5
even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by
grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with him and seated us
with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the
coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness
toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved
through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9
not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for
good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
Ephesians 2:18–22 (The Living Bible) 18
Now all of us, whether Jews or Gentiles, may come to God the Father with the
Holy Spirit’s help because of what Christ has done for us. 19 Now you are no longer strangers to God and
foreigners to heaven, but you are members of God’s very own family, citizens of
God’s country, and you belong in God’s household with every other Christian.
20 What a foundation you stand on now: the apostles and the
prophets; and the cornerstone of the building is Jesus Christ himself ! 21
We who believe are carefully joined together with Christ as parts of a
beautiful, constantly growing temple for God. 22 And you also are
joined with him and with each other by the Spirit and are part of this dwelling
place of God.

reading the entire chapter or book, asking the Holy Spirit of the Living God to
give you the interpretation. 2
Peter 1:16–21 (Williams) 16
For it was not mere stories of fancy that we followed when we told
you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been
eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He received such honor and
glory from God the Father, when from the majestic glory there was borne to Him
a voice like this, “This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom I take delight.” 18
we heard this voice ourselves borne from heaven while we were with Him on that
sacred mountain. 19 So we have the message of the prophets more
certainly guaranteed. Please pay
attention to this message as to a lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until
the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; 20 because
you recognize this truth above all else, that
no prophecy in Scripture is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, 21
for no prophecy has ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by
the Holy Spirit spoke from God.]
Philippians 2:9–11 (The Living
Bible)9 Yet it was because of this that God raised
him up to the heights of heaven and gave him a name which is above every other
name, 10 that at the name of
Jesus every knee shall bow in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11
and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God
the Father.
