Daily Bread – April 22, 2023 (The Seventh Day – Genesis 2:1-3) Ephesians 1:18 – …the eyes of your understanding being enlightened to know the confidence of His calling, and what is the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the holy ones. The Glory Of His Inheritance The “eyes of our heart” are the spiritual sensory realm. If we are to understand things that far surpass the natural sensory realm, then we are going to have to be given a divine ability to perceive the imperceptible. We are to have a confidence that is communicated to us by the Word of God and taught to us by the Spirit of God. We are supposed to know a love that passes knowledge, so our hearts must be given the ability to understand things our natural senses cannot perceive and the human experience cannot teach. Therefore, our Heavenly Father, in His grace, has granted to us a divine ability to interact with the Holy Spirit and to understand the heavenly plan. He has empowered us with the ability to go beyond the confines of an earthly realm to live out our lives in the Spirit and be taught His ways. We now have the provision to perceive things that cannot be seen with the natural eye – those things that before had never entered into the hearts of men (1 Corinthians 2:9-16). Through the illumination that comes by the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, we are able to understand the greatness of our calling and the glory of His inheritance provided for us in Christ Jesus (Ephesians 1:3, 17-23).
