Ephesians 1

3. Paul worshiped both God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ who he says (from prison) had blessed the Ephesian Christians and himself“ with every spiritual blessing in the Heavenly places in Christ.” Underline in your understanding that we Christians (an extension of these Ephesians because the Bible is intended for every Christian throughout the ages) ARE RIGHT NOW receiving “EVERY spiritual blessing in the Heavenly places in Christ.”It is typical of Christians today to greatly question any hard moments in their lives. That is because they haven’t fully grasped the heart of Romans 8:28 – “ALL things work TOGETHER for good to those who love God and are called according to His purpose.” Especially important in that verse are the words ALL and TOGETHER. It is not only the precious, wonderful, obviously blessed moments in life that a Christian should praise God for. The terrible moments, the hard days, weeks, months or years may seem chaotic to us but they are of every purpose in Christ to make us individually who we are meant to become IF we don’t despair and give up our faith in what Christ is doing (1 Thessalonians 5:18). Remember, God made this beautiful world out of chaos. To be blessed with every spiritual blessing is something those without Christ cannot experience.

It was May 6, 1998. So there I was doing meetings at the Assembly of God church in Goldsboro, North Carolina, and in my hotel room I was as frustrated as could be. This was a remarkable time and a time set by God to get my attention. My prayer life was minus zero. I’d open my mouth and know that I was talking into the air and it seemed like God’s cell phone was off. I wanted to pray with all my heart and felt so all alone. I phoned my former wife, Arlyne, and talked to her about it. She told me that she was journaling with God and suggested that I could do the same thing on my computer. And that’s how it all began. I am sitting here with a huge book in front of me that contains all of the conversations I have had with God over my computer.

As I share these conversations with you, I’ll also make some comments aside from them to clarify anything that otherwise might mislead you. I can only tell you that these conversations between God and me are actual events almost daily for a year and a half that gave me answers to so many questions I never could have figured out on my own. His comments were often surprising and so full of love and forgiveness and wisdom far above my own (and that’s a humongous understatement for sure!) Here is the exact conversation God and I had the very first day of doing this. – Ray
