TEXT: Ephesians 3:14-21

14. For this reason I bow my knees before the Father

15. From whom every family in heaven and on earth is named

16. [I pray] that He may grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man,

17. and that the Messiah may dwell in your hearts through faith. [I pray that] you, being rooted and firmly established in love,

18. may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and width, height and depth,

19. and to know the Messiah’s love that surpasses knowledge, so you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

20. Now to Him who is able to do above and beyond all that we ask for think- according to the power that works in you-

21. to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

(Holmans CS Holy Bible)

TOPIC: PRAYER FOR FELLOW BRETHREN

Paul did not only make it clear to the Ephesian brethren that they were not inferior to the Jews, he went ahead to share his heart with them. The love of God in his heart made him fall to his knees and pray to God to empower them with inner strength, make His home in their hearts and to become deeply rooted and strong in the Lord.

He also prayed God to give them the power to understand the love of God, experience the love of Christ, and be made complete with the fullness of life and power that comes from God. How will the Body of Christ be if we make it a duty to pray for one another?

QUESTION: Do you know that you can encourage others by praying for them?

PRAYER: Help me, o Lord, to love others by praying for them, in Jesus name, Amen.
