While reading a morning devotion I noticed the phrase “Praise of His Glory” in Ephesians 1. I had spent several months looking at the words in Ephesians 1. This post is to remind me that studying is great but take some time and let the Word fill you up.

Search engines can reveal things that you may not see even with a concordance or extensive study. Praise of His Glory is like that, the phrase is not used as much as I thought in the New Testament. I found these three verses in Ephesians 1.

• 1:6 His grace that accepted us into His Son is the object of the praise.
• 1:12 Because we trust in Christ, we should be the praise of His glory.
• 1:14 The Holy Spirit is our guarantee of what Jesus redeemed and we should praise His glory.
