eph 1
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, 18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power
haha such powerful and strong verses, you can just feel the spirit behind it by reading it. But besides it just being verses that we can read, i want to make it my prayer that truly we will have the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him. It is just something that i personally can never get enough of, and is just one area where i need more.. What really struck me in these verses was 'the hope of His calling'(v18), and 'the exceeding greatness of His power'(v19).. I never really gave it much thought or let alone realise what really was the hope of His calling.. what does that actually mean..to me? And the exceeding greatness of His power, just can't seem to ever end. The amount of power that He has, that is in His name, and in His blood, just seems to grow greater and greater each day. One of the many things that so many people in this world seek nowadays is power, but so many at the same time fail to see that true power lies in and only comes from God!! Other forms of wordly power is nothing in comparison to the power that we have when we are in God, and we believers have to also realise that! So often in my daily life, i tend to forget or overlook how powerful the Christ in me really is..and because of that i end up limiting Him and myself. I want to be able to fully utilize this unlimited infinite source of power that is in me for the glory of the Kingdom.. so God, teach me how.
