Ephesians 3:14-21 | A Prayer of Benediction and Doxology

Praying for the Strengthening of the Saints (Eph. 3:14-19)

God’s authority over all peoples assures the Church of his ability to

prayers (vv. 14-15).

How we pray believers are strengthened. (vv. 16-19)
… from God’s wealth of


… with through the Holy Spirit
… in their mind, will, and
… resulting in Christ’s indwelling
…to know Christ’s love intimately and be full of God!

Question: Look at Paul’s bold benediction! Do our prayers reflect a vision for our church community like this? How can we pray more effectively over one another?

Proclaiming The Glory of God in Prayer (Eph. 3:20-21)

Prayer for inward growth is never too

, for God’s provision is unfathomable (vs. 20).

The glory of God in the Church is the ultimate desire of a

prayer life (vs. 21).

Question: Where have you placed limitations on God’s ability to answer our prayers? Where do you need to confess His power today to do abundantly more than what you can ask or imagine?

Bottom Line: Strength, knowledge, and the fullness of God are ours for the asking.
