3-26-26    THOUGHTS

There is an end of the old and a beginning of the new in our reading today.  PEACE & ACCESS TO GOD  by God’s SPIRIT is the theme!  Jews and Gentiles are now “fellow citizens” in the HOUSEHOLD OF GOD!  CHRIST IS THE CORNERSTONE.  Being a “dwelling place for God by His Spirit”...   should excite our hearts and souls!   Go forth empowered Child of God!

Eph  2:14-22    For he himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility  15  by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace,  16  and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the  hostility.  17  And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near.  18  For through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.  19  So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,  20  built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone,  21  in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord.  22  In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.

Our Prayer:
We praise You and thank You for wonderful Spirit Words, O Father.  Help us to powerfully treasure the access (for us)  You have provided to Yourself in Christ Jesus by Your Spirit.  As saints and citizens in Your blood bought Church, help us to serve with joy and power and love.
Make us like Yourself, O God!       In the name of our Savior,   Amen.
