Wow, What an Amazing Prayer!

Ephesians 1:16-20

"I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers, that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe according to the working of his great might that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places."

I read this this afternoon and was struck and encouraged by three of the things that Paul prays for for the church in Ephesus.

-That they may know what the hope is to which God has called them.

-What the riches are of his glorious inheritance in the saints

-What is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe. A power so great that it raised Christ from the dead.

These are such great reminders of who we are in Christ and the blessings of being united to him. I pray that my eyes would be enlightened to these truths everyday!
