Give Him Glory
Through All Time
I bow in prayer to the Father because of my work among you. From
the Father his whole family in heaven and on earth gets its name.
I
pray that he will use his glorious riches to make you strong. May his Holy
Spirit give you his power deep down inside you. Then
Christ will live in your hearts because you believe in him.
And
I pray that your love will have deep roots. I pray that it will have a strong
foundation. May you have power with all God's people to understand Christ's love. May you know how wide and long and high and deep it is. And may you know his love, even though it can't be known
completely. Then you will be filled with everything God has for you.
God
is able to do far more than we could ever ask for or imagine. He does
everything by his power that is working in us. Give him glory in the church and
in Christ Jesus. Give him glory through all time and for ever and ever. Amen.
Ephesians 3:14-21
We
have Someone who loves us with a devotedness that is a
mystery how we as sinners ever deserved it! He is God the Father. He did not
spare His own Son. His love is wide, long, deep, high and exceeds all of our knowledge.
Understanding
and appreciating God’s love is so vital that Paul prayed for the Ephesians so
that they could be rooted and grounded in it.
There is no greater joy than to know God loves you.
