Are you living like God chose you before time began? In this episode of Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster of Good News Baptist Church opens Ephesians 1:4-5, Ephesians 2:6, Ephesians 3:19, and Matthew 5:14-16 (KJV) to unpack the breathtaking dimensions of God's love and what it means to live in the light of that love.

You might be asking: If God chose me before the foundation of the world, why does it still feel like I'm missing something? Does God's love really reach me where I am, even at my lowest? And if I'm already blessed with all spiritual blessings in Christ, why do I keep praying like I have nothing?

Pastor Webster walks through these questions with warmth and clarity. Here are a few key points from today's devotion:

- God chose us before the foundation of the world not because of anything we did, but according to the good pleasure of His will

- He chose us so that we would be holy and without blame before Him in love

- We are already seated with Christ in heavenly places and blessed with all spiritual blessings

- God's love reaches to the deepest level of human brokenness to redeem those dead in trespasses and sins

- As believers, we are called to let our light shine so others see our good works and glorify God
