Ephesians 1:7-10

Blessed in Christ and Enlightened to Know His Power

Paul blesses God for every spiritual blessing in Christ, then prays that believers would know the hope, inheritance, and power already given to them through Christ's exaltation.

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

7In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace

8that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.

9And He has made known to us the mystery of His will according to His good pleasure, which He purposed in Christ

10as a plan for the fullness of time, to bring all things in heaven and on earth together in Christ.
