Ephesians 3:16-19

May He grant you out of the rich treasury of His glory to be strengthened and reinforced with mighty power in the inner man by the [Holy] Spirit [Himself indwelling your innermost being and personality]. May Christ through your faith [actually] dwell (settle down, abide, make His permanent home) in your hearts! May you be rooted deep in love and founded securely on love, That you may have the power and be strong to apprehend and grasp with all the saints [God’s devoted people, the experience of that love] what is the breadth and length and height and depth [of it]; [That you may really come] to know [practically, through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]! Ephesians 3:16-19

First of all, and I know that I talk about this a lot, but it is absolutely theTruth, the secret of the Kingdom is to take no thought for your own life. However, we are to take a ton of thought for other people’s life’s. To be great, we must be servants. We should absolutely be praying this prayer for others and not just those who we like or fellowship with. We should be praying prayers like this for those who hate us, those who slander us, those who misuse us, and those who make fun of us. We reap what we sow and we should always be sowing prayers of blessings for others. We should always be in our most secret place praying for others and what our Father has us doing in secret will be rewarded in the open. Gun's, wars, and laws, will not change the world. However the weapon of our warfare, which is being used by God to intercede for others, will.  

Also take note of what our Father had Paul write: God wants us to have His mighty power working fully in us. He wants us to be full of love and full of knowledge. He wants us to know Him and understand Him. He wants us to experience His power and be filled with all of Him. Our Father wants us to be as He is, even when we are still in this world. 


So never question your worth to God, you are dearly loved and treasured. You are His child and He is not angry or disappointed with you. If there is anything that needs corrected with you, He will prune it out of you and cause you to have life and have it abundantly. He will present you glorious and spotless in His presence. You will never be left or forsaken by Him.
