Blessings for the Gentiles

God’s Story:
To some people in the early church, my offer of salvation to the Gentiles, as well as to the Jews, is a great mystery, but it should not be. I revealed in the Old Testament that the Gentiles, as well as Israel, would be heirs to my kingdom. Now I am unveiling the mystery for all to see. My church is made up of many members, but all are united as one body in Christ and in my love.

Read Ephesians 3:1-21

Your Story:
Paul’s prayer for the Ephesians is timeless and spans the centuries of history. The totality of God’s love — its width, length, height and depth — is fully expressed through God’s Son, Jesus Christ. The “you” in the prayer, meant originally for the Christians in Ephesus, is also intended for you today. This passage is a blessing, prayer and doxology all in one.
