We are blessed in Christ "to the praise of the glory of His grace"(Ephesians 1:6). Grace means that every blessing comes to us as the gift of God in Christ. A gift cannot be bought nor earned. Every blessing of God is received by grace through faith in Christ.
We are blessed "with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ" (Ephesians 1:3). By faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, all the blessings of God are ours. We need not beg God to bless us. We need not struggle nor strive to receive God's blessings. They are all ours by grace through faith in Christ.
We are blessed us in so many ways. In the first chapter of Ephesians several of those blessings are mentioned. We are blessed with God's love, grace, peace, truth, forgiveness, and wisdom, through the Holy Spirit. There are countless more blessings "not only in this age, but also in the age to come"(Ephesians 1:21). All these blessings are ours by grace through faith in Christ.
You may ask, how can I thank God for all of these blessings in Christ? Praise God from whom all blessings flow! Praise is the expression of a grateful heart to God for all of His blessings in Christ. Worship is giving thanks and praise to God through our prayers and songs. Praise God, because you are blessed in Christ.
