Today, as we close out this week, we will listen to a powerful and popular passage from the Apostle Paul.
Ephesians 3:14-21 NLT
When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. 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. 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. 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.
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. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.
What is you biggest dream in life right now?
What is the most outlandish thing you could wish for someone you love?
With that in mind, listen again to Paul’s closing blessing.
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.
What if we make our daily prayer for ourselves and those we love be “Lord, accomplish infinitely more than can ask or think”.
This is not a genie in a bottle request. Not a guarantee that everything will go the way we want. It is a blessing that God will use all of everything in our lives to surprise us because of Him working all things together for good.
Let’s pray together: “Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word. Please give me the boldness and the wisdom ask You to do more than I could ask for or imagine through me, for your glory. As above, so below.”
