A deeper look at Satan's Fall, Schemes, and Future as we study the spiritual warfare of Ephesians 6
Tim and Deanna Rees of Hampton Roads Church share a incisive look into the Ephesian's marriage passage.
The promises for the power and effectiveness of the church throughout the book of Ephesians astound us. And God equips us to see them fulfilled thought the Holy Spirit. Get your fleshly inhibitions out of the way and be amazed at the life that awaits. Just like the Spirit-filled disciples in Acts 2 who were accused of drunkenness at 9 o'clock in the morning, so we can experience vibrant life to the full as we trust in the promptings of the Spirit. This may be scary/awkward/unkown/tiring but I don't care … It's Nine O' Clock Somewhere!
Identifying your God Given Gifts for Service Worksheet
Jesus' intervention for us provided a pleasing sacrifice to God, making us pleasing to God as dearly loved child. Such a gift, such grace, would be understood in Ephesus to generate a proportional, reciprocal response of gratitude and service. Thus, grace initiates an intimate relationship between its patron and recipient that grows stronger with each turn in a beautiful dance. The patronage or benefaction systems of Ephesian society would have expected such joyful and obligatory responses. However, if thanksgiving is instead replaced with entitlement or rejection, the unraveling of the relationship becomes a disgrace or a dysgrace. And the consequences are dire.
