both Jew and Gentile united in a single

body by means of His cross, thereby

killing the enmity and bringing the feud

to an end.

And He came and preached the glad tidings

to you who were afar off and peace to those

who were near.

For it is through Him that we both (whether far

off or near) now have an introduction (access)

by one (Holy) Spirit to the Father ( so that we

are able to approach Him).

Therefore you are no longer outsiders (exiles,

migrants, and aliens, excluded from the rights

of citizens), but you now share citizenship with

the saints (God’s own people, consecrated and

set apart for Himself), and you belong to God’s

household.

(Ephesians 2.16-19).

POINTS FOR MEDITATION AND PRAISE

1) We are no longer strangers to God.

God is our Father. We are His children.

We know Him intimately through Jesus

Christ and by the Holy Spirit.

2) The Holy Spirit communicates His

deep love to us and our deepest concerns

 back to Him.

3) We are God’s household thanks to Jesus

Christ.

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS!
