Lesson 1335

(Lesson 1335)(05-27-15) Ephesians 3:13-21

"Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory. For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of 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 by his Spirit in the inner man; That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen."

Today's quote is Paul's prayer for the Church at Ephesus and in essence, for the Church as a whole. Therein Paul related that, through faith in Jesus Christ, all knowledge and power is given to the Church through the individual hearts of the children of God who are joint heirs to the heavenly kingdom with Jesus Himself.~
