Passage: Ephesians 1v3 
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places."
References: Hosea 4v6, John 15.

This verse says it all. Those who are in Christ have been blessed with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places. This will be a short post but very powerful. It is important for the christian to know and understand that he or she has already been blessed. It's not a matter of going to be blessed or hoping to be blessed or believing for a blessing, every spiritual blessing has been poured to those who are in Christ. God Almighty has made availability and provision for those in Christ to be blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, however the truth will always remain that many people continue their walk with God never understanding that they are blessed. Why is this so? The bible says in Hosea 4v6 that God's people perish for lack of knowledge. Praise God for God. It is interesting that God's people can still be destroyed. It is interesting that those who bear the name of God can still be bossed around. How surprising it is that a child of God can still live a life headed for destruction. This is one thing a lot of God's people now take for granted; brethren being a son doesn't exempt you from work or discipline. Being a child of God cannot and will not give you the right to be lazy, unprepared for opportunities, give excuses for failure, fool around. In fact, becoming a christian is a calling to higher standards of living. The demand increases because now you are of a higher class than the rest who remain in the world.

Therefore to tie this back to our passage, although we have been blessed by God with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places, the christian will never experience these benefits without seeking out what they are. This means devoting time to searching the scriptures in order to find these blessings, benefits and their conditions. Secondly they are made for those in Christ, not outside Christ. Therefore remaining or abiding in Christ (John 15) is what gives us the right to claim these blessings.

Glory be to the most High for His mercy endures forever.

Remain Richly Blessed.
Ayo.
