Would you take a moment with me today?
Paul wrote Ephesians from house arrest along with Philippians, Colossians, and Philemon making this one of the prison epistles. As you read this week you will recognize the focus is on the body of Christ.
Today, would you take a few moments to consider 6 people the Lord has placed in your life, make your name the 7th, and pray what Paul prayed. Maybe, shoot those individuals a text encouraging them. Let them know you prayed for them. As the Lord leads. You can also share this with others you know too…
“For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.” Ephesians 3:14-21
Go ahead, pray for 6 people and for yourself. Text those individuals after and let’s be an encouragement to the body of Christ today! Let’s stir heaven on earth today.
