'According as He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world,
that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love:
Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself,
according to the good pleasure of His will,
To the praise of the glory of His grace,
wherein He hath made us accepted in the beloved.'

(Eph 1:4-6)

There is so much in these two verses alone which is cause to bless the Lord, isn't there?
- That He has chosen us!
- Before the foundation of the world!
- Having predestined us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ!
- To Himself!
- This was in accord with the good pleasure of His will!
- By His grace He hath made us accepted!!!
- In the Beloved!!

All praise to the glory of His grace!

'In Whom (The Beloved)
we have redemption through His blood,
the forgiveness of sins,
according to the riches of His grace;
Wherein He hath abounded toward us ... ;

(Eph 1:7-8a)

What wondrous grace, 'wherein He hath abounded toward us'.
There are no half-measures, only abundance of grace.

Praise His Holy Name!

' ... ... in all wisdom and prudence;
Having made known unto us the mystery of His will,
according to His good pleasure which He hath purposed in Himself:
That in the dispensation of the fulness of times
He might gather together in one all things in Christ,
both which are in heaven, and which are on earth;
even in Him: ... '

(Eph 1:8-10)

This is so amazing: the spirit within prostrates itself for it is so humbling to be so honoured; to know God's will, His inner purpose.

May God be blessed!

'In whom (Christ) also we have obtained an inheritance,
being predestinated according to the purpose of Him
Who worketh all things after the counsel of His own will:
that we should be to the praise of His glory,
who first trusted
(prior-hoped) in Christ.'
(Eph 1:11-12)

'That we should be to the praise of His glory'

Amen Lord: Let it be!

Sing to the Lord for what He has done.

“I will sing to the Lord, for He is highly exalted.”
“Who is like You...majestic in holiness, awesome in glory, working wonders?”
“Both horse and its rider He has hurled into the sea.”
“The Lord is my strength and my song…”
The Lord is my salvation or deliverer.
They praised God for who He is.
“The Lord is a warrior.”
They praised God for what He has done.
They sang a new song to the Lord. Psalm 96:1, Psalm 100
Miriam led the women in singing and dancing.
