Welcome

One of the most effective ways to allow the Word of God to affect your life is to study it inductively. That is what this blog is all about. Typically one verse per day will be mined for insight and then followed up with how I plan to implement that insight practically. My prayer is that in some way you find this useful in your journey and that it may impact you positively. -G

Ephesians 1:3

3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.

Having Christ in our lives gives us access to the spiritual blessings we need to conduct our behavior according to His will. In other words if we are called to perform a certain task He will equip us to excel in it, as long as we are abiding in His Lordship. He will guide, protect, provide and equip the saints for the works of service He has preordained for us to perform. So the matter becomes whether or not we are in Christ in the fullness of this gifting, are we walking with the mind of Christ and do we have our hand on the plow of His choosing for us? If so then we need to add to this the faith to believe that He will bless us with every spiritual blessing we need to accomplish His will.

This is why it is so important to remain filled with the Word and Spirit, so that there is confidence to step out in faith to do the things that are on His agenda for me, even though they are or may be beyond my current skill set and pay grade.
