40 Days of Prayer: Day 35

For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God. Ephesians 3:14-19

Dear Lord,
This is my prayer today, not only for myself, but for all those who believe in You and profess You as Savior. Lord, I pray that You would strengthen us with Your power, that same power that raised Jesus from the dead! Lord, Your love for us is so great. Sometimes I don't think I can even understand it. But I pray that You will give us the ability to comprehend the breadth and length and height and depth of Your love - a love that indeed surpasses knowledge. May our comprehension of that enable us to love those around us, as You have commanded. Lord, fill us with Your fulness.

For Your glory I ask it,
Amen.
