“Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers …” Ephesians 1:15-16
Do you give thanks to God for bringing others to faith in Christ Jesus? St. Paul continually gave thanks to God for graciously bringing the Ephesian believers to faith in Christ by the working of the Holy Spirit through the Gospel. And it is a mighty miracle of God when He sends forth His Word and the Spirit and raises those who are spiritually dead to spiritual life by bringing them to see and repent of their sinful ways and look to Christ and His cross for mercy and forgiveness!
Thank You, Lord, for raising me up from death to life through the hearing of Your Word, and thank You for working mightily through the preaching of the Gospel to grant faith and life to all my fellow believers. Amen.
