Ephesians 1

This is one of my favorite passages of the Bible. Paul's language is descriptive of the exceeding greatness of God's work and plan for us. However, words do not clearly convey the reality of the magnitude of what God has done for us through Christ. As we ponder and reflect on our assignment for INCREASE in 2011, it is essential that we grasp spiritually what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of HIS inheritance in the saints and what is the exceeding greatness of his power toward us who believe.

God has already taken us from the lowest places to a place beyond our own comprehension. According to Paul it is not about situation (what we currently face), but it is about REVELATION (the eyes of our understanding). Once we see that we not just destined for greatness, but that greatness is already a reality for us to walk in NOW, we will begin to notice God's work of INCREASE all around us.
