Which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight.

Last time we spoke of the forgiveness we have because of the riches of God’s grace. In this verse, we learn that God has lavished this grace upon us. The word has to do with the abundance and overflowing nature of God’s gift. God is not miserly when it comes to His grace. He pours it out lavishly.

And the verse goes on to tell us that He did this with wisdom and insight. God is all-wise. He knows everything and he knows all of the possible choices, and he knows all the possible consequences of potential decisions. Having considered all of what He knows, and with perfect wisdom, He lavished grace upon us — enough grace to provide pardon for every moral failure and to buy us back from the bondage to sin and Satan.
