Before Paul gives commands or corrections, he bursts into praise. In this opening passage of Ephesians, we’re invited to rediscover what it truly means to be “blessed”—not with ease or comfort, but with belonging. In Christ, God has poured out every spiritual blessing: choosing us, adopting us into His family, redeeming us through the blood of Jesus, and sealing us with the Holy Spirit. This sermon calls us to remember who we already are in Christ—chosen, adopted, redeemed, and secure—and to live from that identity rather than striving to earn it. We don’t leave with a to-do list, but with a name: Jesus, the blessing God has given to the world.
