Bible: Eph. 1:3; 2:1-5

Spiritual Blessings in Christ

1:3 Blessed 1  is 2  the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed 3  us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms in Christ.

2:1 The heavens and the earth 1  were completed with everything that was in them. 2  2:2 By 3  the seventh day God finished the work that he had been doing, 4  and he ceased 5  on the seventh day all the work that he had been doing. 2:3 God blessed the seventh day and made it holy 6  because on it he ceased all the work that he 7  had been doing in creation. 8 

The Creation of Man and Woman

2:4 This is the account 9  of the heavens and the earth 10  when they were created – when the Lord God 11  made the earth and heavens. 12 

2:5 Now 13  no shrub of the field had yet grown on the earth, and no plant of the field 14  had yet sprouted, for the Lord God had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to cultivate the ground. 15
