I Am Blessed Beyond All Measure

blessed the God and Father of our Lord Jesus who has blessed us in all spiritual blessings in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus.*


I have been blessed beyond all measure, given hope and a future, today I am counting every blessing, to the praise of His glorious grace who favored us in the beloved.* 

All spiritual blessings come from the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, every good and perfect gift comes from above. Jesus is the most perfect and good gift from the Father, I am blessed in Christ. 

The Law came through Moses, but grace and truth came in Jesus Christ. The commandment of God came through a man, Moses, but the Word of God became a man to bring us the words of the Father. And to bless us with all spiritual blessings from the heavenlies. 

I am blessed, highly favored in the Beloved, I was predestined for adoption, as His own son through Jesus Christ according to His grace, by the good pleasure of His will. He has not left me as an orphan but has blessed me with the Spirit of promise, a pledge of my inheritance, a Spirit of Adoption whom cries Abbas Father and gives testimony that I am His. And that by the riches of His mercy, through His great love for me He demonstrated His kindness toward me. Favored, chosen, adopted, I am blessed beyond all measure.

He rescued us from the tyranny of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of His beloved, the One in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sin.*

Redemption and the forgiveness of sin join together, redemption paying the debt, which includes the forgiveness of sin. To be blessed is to redeemed, to be forgiven the debt of trespasses. "In Him having redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of trespasses according to the riches of His grace."* Through Jesus, God has blessed us with all spiritual blessings from the heavenlies. "Righteousness, now of God, through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe, for there is no distinction all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, justified freely by His grace through redemption, that in Christ Jesus."* In Christ I am blessed beyond all measure with righteousness, sanctification, and redemption.
Now you exist in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God, and these; righteousness, sanctification, and redemption.*
Should I think God bought me at a price so I'm indebted to servitude? or that I was redeemed because God so loved me, placing great value on me that he would send his Son to redeem me? "For redeemed valuable..."* Truly, my identity is important, not as a servant bought, but as one redeemed, adopted as a son, one who abides in the house forever. I am highly favored in the Beloved, receiving from the riches of His grace and glory.

The Father through Moses gave men manna from heaven that perished but Jesus came down from heaven to give the true bread from heaven that endures unto everlasting Life. Jesus exists living bread and all who eat this bread will have life. I am blessed, because when I was dead in my trespasses and sin, I ate this living bread, the word of life, eternal life, and was made alive in Christ Jesus. I am blessed with eternal life.
Now, at the present in Christ Jesus, you who existed at length far way, exist by creation near, in the blood of Jesus. For He is our peace the one making us both one and taking down the dividing wall, in his flesh the hostility, the law of commandments in regulations so as to create in himself one new man, from the two making peace.*
I am blessed to be under grace, a new creation who has access to the throne of grace through faith. In Christ, I have been blessed with the forgiveness of sin. Christ is also a propitiation for sin, not just the sin of those who believe in Him but of the whole world.* "God exists in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them. And he has trusted us with a ministry of reconciliation."* 

I am blessed to not be under the Law, judged and condemned by it. In Christ there is no condemnation, I am released from that which was adverse to me, the written commandments hostile to me because of the weakness of the flesh. I am blessed to be bound to a new covenant in His blood whereby the blood of Christ atones for my trespasses and sin. 

I am blessed from the riches of His mercy, through His great love for me God demonstrates his kindness toward me, reconciling me to Himself through His Son. I am given a ministry of reconciliation not to judge and condemn the world under the Law but to reconcile the world through to Him through Christ. I am blessed to exist a new creation, to be forgiven, to be at peace, brought near to God through Christ Jesus.
knowing that all those born of God, do not sin but the One begotten of God keeps them safe, and the evil one cannot harm them.*
It is also a great blessing to be raised into newness of life which also means ruling over sin, and in this we are kept from the evil one. Truly, as Job was blessed, saying after his proving he had only heard about God but now he sees Him. And in Christ, there is no veiled glory but we see face to face, being transformed from glory to glory into the image of the begotten Son. 

We are called to participate in the suffering of Christ as we put to death sin in the flesh and are raised into the newness of life. To be raised into the newness of life, one must put away the sin that so easily weighs down. It is not like we will be perfect in all things but we strive to be like Jesus in holy character. There is sin that leads to death, like sexual immorality, homosexuality, prostitution, alcoholism, swindling, thievery, greediness...* As were some of you guilty, but you were blessed, washed, sanctified, justified in Jesus and the Spirit of our God.* 

In heaven there will not be such things, and if born of God we are called to heaven, sons of God, called out of darkness into His marvelous Light. Let us proclaim our commitment to follow Jesus into our reasonable service, to present the body a living sacrifice unto holiness, through a profession of baptism, not the washing of dirt from the body but of a good consciousness toward God. Let us who have the testimony of Spirit and blood now have the testimony of water, the purification of the body of sin. Bless our God who is faithful to do.
... who has blessed us in all spiritual blessings in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus.*
Is it not enough, to be blessed with adoption, redemption, the forgiveness of sin? If I were to be only a poor beggar, or walk through the valley of the shadow of death, or lying in a ditch robbed of all my earthly possessions, I have been blessed beyond all measure. 

To those, He has chosen he also calls to a destiny, to a high calling, a reasonable service. So arm yourselves with the same mind of Christ, to suffer in the flesh putting away sin and being raised into newness of Life. You are blessed child, to know the Father, to be a new creation in Christ, a child of God, adopted, redeemed, forgiven, having testimony of. 

You are blessed child to have a solid foundation rooted and grounded, faith energized in agape love. You are blessed young person as you make true your calling, having testimony of, becoming strong, overcoming the evil one, accepting God's will as pleasing and perfect, as you abide in the words of Jesus.* Yes, count your blessings, you are blessed beyond all measure.

Spirit of Life

" Indeed, the law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus liberates from the law of sin and death ." 1 This word for liberates "I free, set free, liberate" is from a root word meaning free, exempt, not bound by an obligation. As partakers of God's divine nature, being born of Spirit, we are no longer obligated to the sinful nature but to righteousness which is God's nature. When we believe we receive the Spirit of promise, a guarantee of our inheritance, a great testimony that we are His children, it is a Spirit of Life. " Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life." 24 The Son came not to condemn the world but to save it. "One trespass   led to condemnation for all men, so one act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all men. " 6 " He was delivered over to death for our trespasses and wa...

All Who Are Thirsty

“ Come, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters;  and he who has no money,  come, buy and eat!  Come, buy wine and milk  without money and without price.  Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread,  and your labor for that which does not satisfy?  Listen diligently to me, and eat what is good,  and delight yourselves in rich food. .." (Isaiah 55). " Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price ." Buy is defined as to acquire the ownership of by giving an accepted price or consideration therefore; to accept or believe as true .[ 1 ] When we buy something we consider the price that we must pay, we accept this and purchase the thing we have considered worthy of the sacrifice we make in payment. W e can not buy, with money or price, redemption from t his tragic flaw we are born into. However Jesus paid the price for us, so we buy or accept through consideration, the Greek word is  logizomai.[ 2] ...

Lord, Stand By Me

"... present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life, and your members to God as instruments for righteousness ." 1 This word for present means "I bring, present, come up to and stand by," it is parístēmi (from pará, "from close-beside" and hístēmi, "to stand") – properly, stand close beside, i.e. ready to present (exhibit). I pray Lord stand by me which expresses that I put my trust in Him, or I come up to and stand by Him. We use phrases like surrendering or bowing at the cross to explain such a moment, surely it is a coming to the end of ourselves and it is desirable that I find His will acceptable, but it is important to understand that it is about trust, not my will power, the key is that it is in Christ. The terminology the scriptures use is "present yourselves to God," or come up to and stand by and walk with Him. "... present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God--this...

The Tripartite Nature of Humanity: Spirit, Soul, and Body

The Tripartite Nature of Humanity: Spirit, Soul, and Body in Biblical Understanding The human being, as depicted in the Bible, is a multifaceted creation, often understood through the distinct yet interconnected components of spirit, soul, and body. While some theological perspectives lean towards a bipartite view (soul and body), which we do see in the Old Testament, a careful examination of the New Testament scripture reveals a compelling case for a tripartite understanding, where each is divided into or composed of three parts. Let’s explore the biblical distinction between spirit, soul, and body. The Body: Our Earthly Vessel The body is the physical form that interacts with the material world. From the very beginning, Genesis 2:7 states, " Then the Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being ." This verse clearly establishes the body's origin from the earth, emphasizing its connec...

Surrender and Giving Control in Christian Thought: Scriptural Roots, Modern Interpretations, and the Quest for Spiritual Maturity

Surrender and Giving Control in Christian Thought: Scriptural Roots, Modern Interpretations, and the Quest for Spiritual Maturity Introduction The theological concept of surrender—or giving control to God—occupies a prominent place in the modern Christian consciousness. From pulpits, in devotional material, songs, and across a multitude of Christian traditions, believers are often exhorted to “surrender their lives to Christ,” to “give up control." This is often expressed as a “come to the end of yourselves,” experience. These exhortations, frequently couched in emotive and urgent language, invite believers to a posture of yielding, releasing, and letting go. Yet, when this language is measured against the actual vocabulary, teachings, and emphases of the Greek New Testament, important questions emerge:  How biblically grounded are the concepts of “surrender” and “giving control”? Does such language reflect the spiritual vision of the earliest Christian church and scripture, or...

Freedom from the Mosaic Law: A Deep Theological Exploration of New Testament Teaching

  Freedom from the Mosaic Law: A Deep Theological Exploration of New Testament Teaching Introduction: The Question of the Mosaic Law and Christian Identity One of the most significant theological debates and practical challenges for the early church was the place of the Mosaic Law in the life of believers in Jesus Christ. This question remains alive today, particularly in communities and churches that quote the Old Testament as if its legal prescriptions still directly obligate Christians. The apostolic writings, especially those of Paul, provide the primary lens through which the New Testament resolves this matter. Paul’s letters—rich in both theological reflection and ecclesiastical urgency—not only confront false teaching but chart the path of new covenant living by the Holy Spirit.  This essay seeks to offer a doctrinal synthesis on why believers are no longer “under the Mosaic Law,” supported by original-language insights, harmonized scripture references, and commentar...

Theological Comparison of the New Covenant of Grace and the Old Covenant of the Law

Theological Comparison of the New Covenant of Grace and the Old Covenant of the Law: A Detailed Study Rooted in Ephesians 2:11–22 Introduction The theme of covenant is central to the biblical narrative, shaping God’s relationship with humanity from creation through redemption. The new covenant is called by Paul a ministry of reconciliation, righteousness, and of the Spirit. The shift from the old Mosaic covenant—rooted in the Law given to Israel at Sinai—to the new covenant of grace established in Christ, fundamentally redefines how people approach God, community, and salvation. Paul’s letter to the Ephesians, particularly 2:11–22, provides a remarkably clear and rich theological exposition of this transition, addressing not only the spiritual implications for Jews and Gentiles but also the very nature of the church as God’s new creation. This report develops an in-depth, paragraph-driven theological comparison between the old and new covenants, structured around nine key themes de...

The New Living Way

The New Living Way "... Now, at the present released from the Law, having died in that which held us captive, so that we serve in newness of Spirit and not the old written code " -- Romans 7:16 Paul states that we are now united to Christ in his death and also raised with him into newness of life. What held them captive was sin but also the Law, it was a guardian until the appointed time God would send a Messiah (see School Master ). Paul uses the metaphor of marriage to describe how we are released from the Law; like a wife whose husband dies, now she is released from the Law and can marry another, so also have we died with Christ and are released from the Law and bound to Christ in a new covenant. The purpose of this is that we live in a new living way of the Spirit and not fleshly through the old written code or Mosaic Law. " So then brothers, you also have died to the Law through the body of Christ to the extent you exist by creation of another, the one raising you f...

Called According to His Purpose: A Biblical Examination

  Called According to His Purpose: A Biblical Examination 📖 Introduction The phrase “called according to His purpose” appears in Romans 8:28 (ESV), a foundational verse that reads: “And we know that for those loved of God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to His purpose.” This statement gives comfort and more—it is a declaration about identity, destiny, and divine intent. To be “called according to His purpose” means participating in God’s sovereign, redemptive plan. God's plan is being manifested through the church through the "new covenant in his blood" as it was established by the death of Jesus. The calling is not arbitrary or based on human merit, but is rooted in God’s purpose, eternal will and love. 🔍 The Nature of the Calling In Scripture, God's calling is effectual—that is, it accomplishes what He intends. Paul writes: "...those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified,...
