V.10 This is future. All this fits in perfectly with what He is going to do at the end — the whole creation, spoiled by Satan and sin, is going to be brought back into one sweet unity, and the Head of it all is Christ.
V.12 All this has been done for us, so that we would be singing His praises forever.
V.13-14 And every believer after he believed, has had a seal, a stamp put on him. This is the Holy Spirit. He is in every believer forever. He is the pledge (promise) given by God until Jesus comes for us, and changes our bodies to make them fit for heaven, God’s presence.
V.15-23 Paul tells us what he prayed on two occasions in this book. The first one is here, the second in the third chapter. I like to call the first one the “then” prayer, the second, the “NOW” prayer. The first takes our thoughts to the future in glory. You’ll see in this prayer that Paul’s thoughts rise right up into heaven. God has the title of the GOD of our Lord Jesus Christ; because Christ is looked at there as the glorified MAN, Who has been down here on earth, suffered, died and been raised again. The church, (all believers) is looked at as “the fullness of Him that filleth all in all.” It’s a short prayer, but has so much in it.
V.22-23 The church is the body of Christ. It is made up of every believer in Him. Just pause and realize that the Lord Jesus is not complete without us.
