  • Blessed Beyond Measure: Week 2-Blessed With A Spiritual Family!

    Ephesians 1:4-6

  • Blessed Beyond Measure: What if you're more blessed than you realize? Life isn't always easy. Circumstances change, challenges come, and sometimes blessings seem hard to find. But God's greatest blessings aren't measured by what we possess—they're found in who we belong to. Join us in a 6-week sermon series through Ephesians 1 to discover life’s greatest blessings. Because you may not have everything you want, but in Christ, you have more than you realize!

    Week 2: Blessed With Family- We all need community, and God’s answer for loneliness is the family of believers, the church. As part of His spiritual family, we are called to support and serve each other, knowing that God has our back.

    4 Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. 5 God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure. 6 So we praise God for the glorious grace he has
    poured out on us who belong to his dear Son. Ephesians 1:4-6

  • KEY PRINCIPLE: Through Jesus Christ, God gives us more than a place in heaven. He gives us a      where we belong.

    1. You Belong To A Good      .

    3 things about our heavenly Father:
    A. Your Father      You.
    B. Your      Is Approachable.
    C. Your Father Will      Abandon You.

    15 So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.” 16 For his Spirit joins with our spirit to affirm that we are God’s children. Romans 8:15-16

    Life Application: This week, approach God as your loving heavenly Father. Bring Him your worries, disappointments, needs, and gratitude. Stop treating prayer as an obligation and start seeing it as an      to spend time with the Father who loves you.

    Challenging Question:
    Are you living with the confidence of God's child, or are you still trying to earn your Father's love?
       

    2. You      To A Good      .

    19 So now you Gentiles are no longer strangers and foreigners. You are citizens along with all of God’s holy people. You are members of God’s family. 20 Together, we are his house, built on the foundation of the apostles and the prophets. And the cornerstone is Christ Jesus himself. Ephesians 2:19-20

    3 important truths about the church:
    A. You Have a      to Belong.
    B. You Have People to      Through Life With.
    C. You Have a Family to      In.

    Life Application:      With Someone. Don't just attend church. Build a relationship.      For Someone. Be the family member who shows up. Contribute      . Ask God how you can use your gifts and abilities to strengthen His church.

    Challenging Question: Are you simply attending God's family gatherings, or are you actively helping God's family grow stronger?
