Because Of Christ And Our Faith In Him,
We Can Now Come Boldly And Confidently
Into God’s Presence.

Why not pray this prayer for a friend this morning?

Scripture

Ephesians 3

¹² Because of Christ and our faith in him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God’s presence.

Observation

This morning I can come boldly and confidently into God’s presence because of Christ. Take a minute and read the prayer that Paul prays in chapter 3. Here it is:

¹⁴ When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, ¹⁵ the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth.
 
¹⁶ I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit.
 
¹⁷ Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong.
 
¹⁸ And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is.
 
¹⁹ May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. 

Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.

²⁰ Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. 

²¹ Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.

Application

I will pray this prayer for some of my friends who are facing health issues and some other friends who are dealing with problems in their marriage.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, I pray that from Your glorious, unlimited resources You will empower my friends with inner strength through Your Spirit.
 
Then Christ will make his home in their hearts as they trust in him. Their roots will grow down into God’s love and keep them strong.
 
And may they have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is.
 
 Now all glory to You God, You are able, through Your mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to You in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.
