Church Matters: A Praying People
September 2, 2023

Small prayer focuses on situations, BIG prayer prays for God’s power to reveal and grasp His love for us through Jesus Christ.

    1. Message of the Gospel - The Mystery Revealed (Eph 3:6-13)
    2. Modeling the Method of Prayer
      • Strengthened with Power in Our Inner Being (Eph 3:14-17a)
        • Decaying Yet Renewed – “Personal Communion”
        • God’s Power of Renewal Through the Spirit
      • Grasp the Love of God in the Gospel (Eph 3:17b-19)
        • Rooted like a Tree & Firm like a Foundation
        • Grasping with the Saint – “Public Comprehension”
        • Filled with the Fullness of God

    3. Magnification – Prayer & Doxology (Eph 3:20-21)
      • We are dependent on the power of God in us.
      • Our aim in prayer is the Glory of God.
