August 26 Morning: "The unsearchable riches of Christ" - Eph 3:8

JESUS IS OUR SOVEREIGN LORD. He has devoted all His riches to us, so that the riches of Jesus are ours. "Ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though He was rich, yet for our sakes He became poor, that we through His poverty might be rich." He gave His all for our redemption, sanctification, and salvation; and now, at the right hand of the majesty on high, He continues to give liberally, and upbraideth not. He has riches of grace, riches of mercy, and riches of glory. The gift of the Spirit is with Him. He has promised freely; He has proved His readiness to bestow in the most wonderful way. Let us therefore expect great things from Him, for He has unsearchable riches. O believer, look not at your poverty, at your wants, or your circumstances, but look to Jesus; all things are under His feet, all blessings are at His disposal, and His heart is set upon you to do thee good! He will supply all your needs now, and afterwards receive you to glory. My soul, your Jesus has all you need: therefore look only to Him, and Him alone!

For Meditation:
Possessing Christ, I all possess,
Strength, wisdom, sanctifying grace,
And righteousness complete:
Bold, in His name, I dare draw nigh,
Before the Ruler of the sky,
And all His justice meet.
