DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

  1. When you pray, what dominates your prayers––what do you pray most for yourself and others?
  2. In verses 18-19, Paul lists three things he prays for them to know. What are they, and why do you think he prays for those things?
  3. Look back over the list under “My Identity in Christ”. How are we changed when we see who we are in Jesus?
  4. Since God’s power is available to you, where do you need to claim it this week?
