Weekly Devotionals | Ephesians 5:18-21
In this message, we revisit Paul’s call to walk in the light as renewed people in Christ. We focus on Ephesians 5:18–21, where Paul invites us into a life shaped by worship, gratitude, and mutual submission within the body of Christ.
Together, we explore:
- Why Christians sing — the unique hope, truth, and beauty that shape our worship.
- How singing transforms us — grounding truth in our hearts, healing our emotions, and strengthening our faith.
- Barriers that keep us from singing — and how to overcome them.
- What biblical submission really means — not weakness, but choosing love, humility, and unity.
- How these themes prepare us for Paul’s teachings on marriage, family, and work relationships in the next passages.
Reflection Questions:

• If you are an employer or an employee or a master or a servant or a boss or a worker, what are the key struggles that you have in those relationships?
• What do you want to ask God for in these struggles and relationships?
If this teaching encourages you, feel free to share it with someone who might need it. Let’s continue walking in the light together as children of God.
