My Prayer To The Father

Father God Almighty, I come to You in the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ that You may grant me a spirit of wisdom and revelation a deep and intimate knowledge of You, that the eyes of my heart (my spirit) be enlightened, that I can know and understand the hope to which You have called me, and the richness of Your glorious inheritance in the saints, which we are.
I pray that I will begin to understand the incredible greatness of Your power for ALL who believe in You. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ Jesus from the dead and seated Him in the place of honor at Your right hand in the heavenly realms.
When I think of the wisdom and scope of Your plan, I fall to my knees and praise You, the Creator of everything in heaven and earth through Christ. I pray that from Your glorious, unlimited resources that You have given to all who believe in Your mighty inner strength through Your Holy Spirit. And I pray that You will be more and more at home in my family’s heart as we trust in You and lean not to our own understanding, in all our ways acknowledging You as You have direct our paths, our presence and our future now.
May our roots go down deep into the soil of Your marvelous love. And may we have the power to understand, as all Your people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep Your love really is.
May we experience the love of Christ, though it is so great that we will never fully understand it. Then we will be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes from You.
Now all glory be to You by Your mighty power at work within us, that You may be able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope.
You have given glory and honor to the church in Christ Jesus forever and ever throughout the endless age of time. Amen
