In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace. — Ephesians 1:7 KJV
In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our wrongdoings, according to the riches of His grace. — Ephesians 1:7 NASB
Reflection
Grace is the unmerited favor of God. It is through grace that we receive redemption and forgiveness. This grace is described as “riches,” indicating its abundance and generosity. God’s grace is not given sparingly or grudgingly but is lavished upon us. It is an inexhaustible resource that continually sustains us, providing us with the strength and encouragement needed to live a life pleasing to God.
This passage therefore reassures us of our secure standing in Christ. It affirms that we are redeemed, forgiven, and recipients of God’s abundant grace. This truth should be a source of immense comfort and motivation as we go through our spiritual journey, continually drawing us closer to the Lord.
My Prayer
Lord, deepen my understanding of the redemption I have in Christ. I pray that this truth transform my heart and mind, renewing my spirit and drawing me closer to You.
Thank You, Father, for the assurance of my salvation and the hope of eternal life with You. I pray that Your Holy Spirit would continue to guide me, comfort me, and strengthen me as I journey in faith.
In Jesus’ precious name, I pray, Amen.
