Spiritual blessing of a believer

Eph 1:3: 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.

             In this world blessing means a lot of inheriting, achieve the goal, money etc. But there is full of incomplete, there is less in peace, joy, and people were dying. It is not a blessing it is a curse. But Spiritual are only to be given those who are call to be the heavenly realms. We have to fix our eyes which are unseen (heavenly things) earthly blessing make us sad.

            Here we will just look the word which is talk about our duty in this world. We are chosen by God before we were born. When we look at v.3 who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, God chose us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places. Paul is clearly mentioning about our spiritual blessing which is place in us. Those blessing which we received is a free gift, we need not to give back something valuable thing but we are to be stand firm in our faith. The blessing which we got freely will be passing to the other. That means the blessing we get should not be kept in a safe place, we need to share out to our fellow friends, relative, especially to our fellow unbeliever, who are still in the darkness, still doesn't know what is right and wrong.

            The blessing that we are received is our duty which God has chosen us to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ to the world; as a Christian sharing the good news is our duty and priority to do in our life in this world.  So the world may hate us because of our good deeds, let’s not fight back to them instead we need to show our love and the love of God to them, so that through love we can change the people and the whole world.

The duties of disciples

Matthew 6:33 "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

            It should be the supreme purpose of everyone to seek the kingdom of God. We study the next through five questions:-

1.      What is to be done?

 “Seek” Put your heart into this enterprise. Seek earnestly, diligently, enthusiastically, steadily, with your whole life, hands, head and heart.

2.      Who is to seek?

“Ye” all who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. All who name the name of Christ? All who are members of his church and all who have a desire to do his way and will? All who have had an experience of grace and possess a new heart, a new purpose, a new hope, a new outlook, and a new Master. “Seek you”.

3.      When shall we seek?

“First” in time, in aim, in activity.

4.      What shall we seek?

 His kingdom and his righteousness. Seek to the right in every relation of life, in relation to God, to Christ, to the church, to all Christians, to all sinners.

5.      Why should we seek?

Because when we attain righteousness and seek the kingdom, all lesser blessings will be added unto us. When we seek the kingdom and righteousness of the Lord, He will see that we have all necessary food, clothing, and raiment. It is promise of the Lord.

Love the house of God

Psalm 26:8   O LORD, I love the habitation of Your house And the place where Your glory dwells.

I.                   God house in its relation to the devout worshiper

1.      As the appointed place for divine worship. We are not indifferent to the truth that there is no spot on earth where the throne of grace is not accessible. Yet the sacred sanctuary, set apart for God’s special worship, and hallowed by the prayers of many of his people, claims to be regarded with special love and reverence, whether it is tabernacle or temple, church or chapel.

2.      As the place where God has especially promised to reveal himself to his people.

God allowed a visible emblem of his presence to dwell in the Tabernacle of old; and in his House, today. He is especially present to convict, to comfort, and to bless.

3.      God’s house is loved by the Christian because of hallowed experience there. Its services develop and sanctify the social bond in all its relations. It is loved as the type of the house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

II.                Love for God’s House

1. Desire to attend in the house of the Lord, Loving one another as God Love us.
2. A willing to support it, both by taking part in its services, and by loyally and generously giving of our substance for its maintenance. Prayerfully and taking care of his property.
3. By consistency of life, lest outsiders be given cause of offence against religion, because of the sad difference between the prayers and practices of Christians.
