Power

Our prayer verse for this week is Ephesians 3:16-17a:

I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.

I'm thinking today about how the riches from His glory strengthen us with power through His Spirit. This is what we are praying for each other .. that God will strengthen each member of our church body with power through His Spirit. Wow. Think about the potential for each of us strengthened by God's Spirit .. His power.

Later in this same chapter we read "Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever." In this verse we read that the result of His power at work within us is His glory in the church.
