If God answered this prayer?
Rod ShimabukuroEphesians 3
14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 15from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, 16that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, 19and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
20Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, 21to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
Paul’s heart was for the church to continue in faith and faithfulness to the Lord, being the expression of Jesus wisdom. For this reason (and more), Paul pens a powerful prayer that if answered, makes the the saints of God unstoppable!
My simple and yet difficult application is to memorize this prayer. I have started but I desire to meditate on the Person and character of God, His nature, role and responsibilities to his church!
Dear Jesus - O God - by the Holy Spirit. Please help me to hide this prayer in my heart and let it transform me by Your presence - to be, live and become more like You!
