Ephesians 3:14-21
(NIV)
14 ...I kneel before the Father,
15 from whom his whole family in heaven and on
earth derives its name.
16 I pray that out of his glorious riches he
may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being,
17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts
through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love,
18 may have power, together with all the
saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,
19 and to know this love that surpasses
knowledgethat you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably
more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,
21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ
Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. |
