Paul's Prayer for Spiritual Strength

This is one of, if not my favorite passages in the entire Bible.  No matter how many times I read it I am continually hit by it's undeniable truth.  As eternity continues to invade my time with the Lord and His truth of overcoming this world and our life and victory in Him continues to be true, I can't help but fall in love with this passage every single time.  God's Word amazingly strengthens and satisfies His people. Be strengthened by this today:


Ephesians 3: 14- 21


For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of His glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.  Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever, amen.
