“Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; That the God of our Lord Je’sus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints.”
Paul prayed for the church of Ephesus, that God would fill them with wisdom, to give them revelations of knowledge of Christ, and that their eyes would be opened to understanding. We can adopt this prayer for ourselves and bring these same requests before our Almighty God! We could use more wisdom, knowledge, and understanding! Especially in the world we live in today!
We have need of God’s wisdom to better raise our families in this dark and evil world. We could use his revelations of knowledge to be better examples for our kids and to those around us we interact with. We have a need for eyes of understanding to best know how to minister and witness to a family member or friend. It is through this powerful prayer request that we could begin to understand his plan for us. That we might have a better understanding of his power and grace toward us as his children.
Do you desire more wisdom? For knowledge to be revealed? For your eyes to be opened to understanding? Simply bring it before the Lord and he will hear your prayer! Enter into his throne room with boldness that your requests would be made known unto him!
