I
Also Pray
That
You Will Understand The Incredible Greatness
Of
God's Power For Us Who Believe Him.
Scripture
Ephesians
1
15 Ever
since I first heard of your strong faith in the Lord Jesus and your
love for God’s people everywhere,
16 I
have not stopped thanking God for you. I pray for you constantly,
17 asking
God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you
spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge
of God.
18 I
pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can
understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his
holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance.
19 I also
pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s
power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power
20 that
raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at
God’s right hand in the heavenly realms.
21 Now he
is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything
else—not only in this world but also in the world to come.
Observation
I
am praying for you this morning. “I am asking God, the glorious
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you spiritual wisdom and
insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God.” I also
pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God's power
for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised
Christ from the dead ...”
I
love the book of Ephesians. I am looking forward to reading its six
chapters over the next few days!
I
hope that you are taking the time to read a little in God's Word
every day. Find a reading plan that works for you and stick to it. If
you started reading your Bible every day, but for some reason have
stopped today is a great day to start back again!
You
can do it!
Go
to Biblegateway website and pick out a reading plan. There are lots
to options to choose from.
Application
I
will pray Ephesians 1:17-19 for those people that God places on my
heart.
How
about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, I pray that You give me wisdom and insight so I can grow in
my knowledge of You. Flood my heart with light so I can understand
the confident hope You have given me. Help me understand Your
incredible power that is available to me, the same power that raised
Jesus from the dead.
And
I pray the same prayer for anyone who might be reading this blog. May
Your face shine brightly on them today, Lord.
