Daily Bible Reading – July 2021, God’s Word of Faith

DAY 10 OF 31

July 10

Introduction

The Letter to the Ephesians is concerned with God’s plan “to bring all creation together, everything in heaven and on earth, with Christ as head” (1:10), along with an appeal to God’s people to live out the meaning of this great plan for the unity of the whole human race through oneness with Jesus Christ. 

In today’s reading, the apostle Paul greets the community and reminds them that they are welcomed members of God’s family because God forgives their sins through Christ. He prays that the Holy Spirit will help the followers in Ephesus to be wise and understand what it means to know God, and he reminds them that the power that raised Christ from death will be at work among those who believe. 

Today’s Scripture Reading 

Ephesians 1:1-23

Today’s Key Verse: Ephesians 1:13b

"You believed in Christ, and God put his stamp of ownership on you by giving you the Holy Spirit he had promised."

Reflect

Today’s reading speaks of God’s grace and “the free gift he gave us in his dear Son” (verse 6). What does it mean to you to be a recipient of God’s grace?  Paul prays that the Holy Spirit “will make you wise and reveal God to you” (verse 17). In what ways has God been revealed to you?

Pray

Lord God, thank you for putting your stamp of ownership on me through the gift of your Holy Spirit. Open my mind to see your light so that I may know the hope to which you have called me and the richness of your wonderful blessings. Amen.

Prayer Concern

Those who need to hear the Good News of God’s salvation

Tomorrow’s Reading

Ephesians 2:1-22: The apostle Paul describes the oneness in Christ that believers share.
