WHAT MAKES GOD SMILE? (Ephesians 1)
I. God Had His Eye on You
Since Day One
4 just
as He chose us before the foundation of the world. In love 5 He
predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself so that we
would be holy and blameless before Him according to the good pleasure of His
will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, of which He
freely graced us in the Beloved.
II. God Lavished His Love
Upon You
7 In Him
we have redemption through His
blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His
grace 8 which He
lavished on us.
III. God Stamped His Seal of Ownership On You
13 In Him, you also, were sealed in Him with the promised Holy Spirit, 14 who is given as a pledge of our inheritance, with a view
to the redemption of God's own
possession, to the praise of His glory.
