RCCG Sunday School Teens Teachers Manual 17 April 2022 – Lesson 33
CENTRAL TRUTH: God has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.
INTRODUCTION: Spiritual blessings are divine gifts for us, including God’s favour, peace, joy etc. They are benefits extending from the spiritual realm to the physical realm. The spiritual blessings are the blessings that the physical blessings are connected to. All things are first spiritual. The spiritual realm is more real than the physical realm.
In Eph 1:3, Paul is thanking God for the spiritual blessings rather than the physical blessings which we naturally gravitate towards. These blessings are in the heavenly realm. Even though they are unseen but they are of eternal value. 2 Cor 4:18. Anyone that is born again is qualified to partake of these spiritual blessings. They are so numerous but we will only consider a few.
