WEDNESDAY 6 DECEMBER
Let’s prepare ourselves. Pray in tongues, or ask the Holy Spirit to give you the gift of tongues.
Ephesians 1:3-5
[3] Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. [4] For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love [5] he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will.
- What does being blameless in God’s sight mean for you?
- What does being a son (an inheritor) mean for you?
- What praise do you want to give your heavenly Father?
