'In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him' (Ephesians 3:12).
God has called all people's of the earth to worship him, as their Creator. He wants them to have a relationship with Him; to know and trust Him. For all who heed the call and believe that Jesus Christ is Lord, and Saviour - the Son of God; we are now apart of the spiritual family of God. Paul prayed for spiritual strength of the Ephesian church that Christ might dwell in their hearts by faith. We too individually and corporately need spiritual strength, to carry on the work God has called us to do. The text above points out two important benefits that we have in Christ. First, we have boldness granted by God. That is, liberty to speak our minds plainly and freely; to be free from the spirit of bondage; to be able to speak with confidence. Secondly, we have 'access with confidence.' In other words, we have a way to the Father through our faith in Jesus Christ. We have confidence in God's power, faithfulness and willingness to fulfil His promise. Hebrews 4:16 admonishes us to come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. Let us in prayer, praise and Thanksgiving use our time wisely. We have been given a wonderful opportunity to come with confident access into God's presence by our faith in His Son, Jesus Christ. As we approach the closing scenes of earth history, we need to live our lives in a manner that is pleasing to God. We need to have the confidence to know He hears and answers our prayers through our faith in Jesus. Having the confidence that our situations and the difficulties we face daily matters to God, and that He takes them and use them to work together for our eternal good. It behoves us to listen to God, to trust in His word, to believe in Him, that we through Jesus may have access to the throne of grace. It is indeed a privilege to have access into the presence of the Almighty God! What an awesome blessing to be called Children of God and with boldness and confidence have access to come into His Holy presence because of Christ and our faith in him. Choose Jesus today, He is the answer to all our questioning.
Have a wonderful day 🌹🌹
