“EL ELYON
In your presence, You said;

My grace is all you need!
My grace is everything for you!

My mercy endureth forever!

I therefore open my hands,
my heart and my lions
to receive you, God’s grace.

I cast all my burdens unto you God.

Harmonize my spirit, my soul
and my mind from self accusations,

self condemnation, shame, guilt, unforgiveness,

past pains, hurts, tears, bitterness, envy,

loneliness, insecurities, Idolatry, sorcery,

enmity, strife, jealousy, anger
and selfishness.

Holy Spirit continually to lay bare
more of God Almighty to me,

and less of Me, I and Myself.

Holy Spirit keep brooding over me.

And I’ll keep gazing in the
inner place of God.

Upon His words, wisdom, knowledge,

understanding, revelation, beauty
and the riches of His glory.

Significantly, I’ll begin to transform
into the image God wants me to be.

O God my father,
In your presence I’ll stay.”

Ephesians 1:4
Even as [in His love] He chose us [actually picked us out for Himself as His own] in Christ before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy (consecrated and set apart for Him) and blameless in His sight, even above reproach, before Him in love.

Ephesians 1:5
For He foreordained us (destined us, planned in love for us) to be adopted (revealed) as His own children through Jesus Christ, in accordance with the purpose of His will [because it pleased Him and was His kind intent]

Ephesians 1:6
[So that we might be] to the praise and the commendation of His glorious grace (favor and mercy), which He so freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.

Ephesians 1:7
In Him we have redemption (deliverance and salvation) through His blood, the remission (forgiveness) of our offenses (shortcomings and trespasses), in accordance with the riches and the generosity of His gracious favor,

Ephesians 1:8
Which He lavished upon us in every kind of wisdom and understanding (practical insight and prudence),

Ephesians 1:9
Making known to us the mystery (secret) of His will (of His plan, of His purpose). [And it is this:] In accordance with His good pleasure (His merciful intention) which He had previously purposed and set forth in Him.
