Best Ephesians Poems
We ask for mediocrity
As far as blessings
From the Father
He wants to give us
Really large things
We have a limited
Thought capacity
So we continue
To ask for less
And God wants
To give us more.
The scripture states
In Ephesians 3:20,
"Now to Him who is able,
To do exceedingly abundantly,
Above all that we ask or think,
According to the power
That works in us,"
See in Him we must
Fully trust and
We also must
Allow His power
To work in us
And we will see
The results.
We ask God
For cars, money,
Good grades,
But He not only
Wants to have
That He wants
His work to come
Out of you
And you'll be
Amazed of
What He has
For you.Things
That you never
Thought You
Could have or
Be able to do
Will occur for
Your good work
That He placed
In you. You must
Believe that you
Have the power
That He gave
All of His true
Children in order
To enjoy the
True multi-millions
Of things He has
In store or possibly
Even more.
Be careful what
You pray for
You might just
Get it. Pray
Instead for God's
Best, because
Our mental capacity
Is limited. Keep
On living, working,
And believing in
God. You ain't seen
Nothing yet.
You may ask for
Something little
And in a wink
He'll bless you
With more than
We can ask or think.

"Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think,

Lord, each time we know you just a little bit more,
We can see just how different we are now, than before.
Stir up a passion within us, one which never dies,
A desire to be more like you; in our hearts your spirit lies.
Open up our eyes, so we can see so very clear,
The path you've made just for us, and held so very dear.
Build us up to be leaders in this fallen land,
To help guide those who are lost, and offer them a hand.
Help purify our hearts, and make us white as snow,
So we can lead by example, planting seeds that will grow...
Into something so amazing, beautiful and divine,
It could only come from you; you've made us shine.
You're a light in the darkness, and always break through,
For you hold the only power that stands strong and true.
Of all the people on the earth, it was us you chose,
To display your amazing power, so everyone knows:
There are none who can compare to you, not even one;
You've given us this power, which only comes through your son.
But your power is not limited to just you and me;
You've instructed us to share the word with everyone we see.
Give us the boldness we need, and let us be unashamed,
To share the news of your great love, till every soul is claimed.

A man craves respect.
And a woman desires love.
This is the heavenly equation for the perfect marriage.
How can we find these ingredients in the world when they both come from above?
A man works labors hard all day long...
A woman tries to pretty herself and place a welcome mat out for him at the end of a long day.
This is the way the Creator designed it to be.
The woman is the heart of the home.
The man is the protector and provider.
Our Creator is the center that holds it all together like glue.
If you study the Word of God you would find this magical marital equation spelled out in detail.
Ephesians 5:33
However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

He masterminded the human race
and made our home to be
His place.
Outside His garden
the hungry crave
the fruit of life
not knowing…
He left His grave
clothes in the tomb
and in His life
there is a womb
where thirst is quenched.
With open arms
He welcomes all
and spreads a feast
that shatters walls
around the heart.
A storehouse rich
with special gifts
grows His love
to heal the rifts
and like the hen
who gather’s her chicks
He lights the wicks
of kinsmanship.
He masterminded the ancient plan
to bring together from every land
the choicest gifts:
flowers of earth immortalized
filled with power
to be bouquet'd
ribboned with the blood of grace.
He Masterminded the Master's race.

Verse
I
Walk
We learn with many a fall
Walk
With Jesus, ye heard the call
Amos said (3:3) "Can TWO
WALK
TOGETHER
Unless they be agreed?"
II
When biblical pastors urge fellow-saints
To grow in their Christian Walk
That is essential, as Paul taught the Ephesians
Otherwise we have empty talk
III
Two scriptures & John 3 :16 are a great START -
I share, humbly, if u wish to enjoy power & peace
1. Read Ephesians chapter 2 for our inheritance
5. Read Ephesians chapter 5 for changes we make ("be drunk with the Spirit of God, not wine," 5:18 & mens' LOVE walk (verses 32-33)
These scriptures will unleash the Promised Power & Peace.
THE DETAILS ARE IN CHAPTERS 1 & 2, and Ephesians 5:8 gives me the Title, above:" For ye were sometimes darkness, but now ye are light in the LORD: walk as children of light." (2016: KJV, Thomas Nelson)

God has revealed His mystery
to His children living here below
redemption to us He's given
our sins been dealt a death blow
We have been redeemed from sin
through the blood of God's own son
on Calvary's cross, He paid our price
where the great transaction was done
Forgiveness to us been given
all our transgressions dealt with
such is His grace given so free
all of these riches no myth
God has lavished upon us
with such wisdom and insight
His glorious mercy and goodness
revealing this gospel so bright
The mystery of His will
revealed in His perfect purpose
which in Christ been set forth
who paid for our purchase
AUTHOR NOTES: 'In him, we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ'.

This poem us based on Scripture, Ephesians 2:6, usually the author ascribed is Paul.
II
We participated in his life
And especially his death
A mystery, gift melting strife
Through Spirit of God, divine work
Now, as he rose, we rose as well
Again a great and sublime mystery
Relation with heirs helps spell
Out how we thus live above misery

God glorifying words so in lack
such desires seem not at heart
this is abhorrence to God's law
which commands perfection not a part
The one who commands such things
is perfect in character and holiness
absolutely without flaw or blemish
for He offers redemptive blessedness
So be sure to speak wholesomeness
such communication that's truly pure
words that hold you up respectfully
knowing this God forever will endure
Edifying speech is its result
for it will produce edifying grace
to edify all hear such words
then God and truth do embrace
Ephesians 4:29 (KJV)
( 29. Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.)

The scriptures call us to account
to redeem our precious time
making sure it's not wasted
for to do so is a crime
This exhortation is for a reason
for these evil days, we live in
would seek to make us sleepy
spiritually blind gripped by sin
So make sure you value time
making every moment count
getting all you can from it
filling your needed fount
God has declared a judgement
on all mankind to speak
to tell of all they've done
for some, the outcome will be bleak
So remember redeem the time
in these evil days
for God's word declares it
nothing is hidden God says

Ephesians 4:27 admonishes all believers in Jesus Christ, not to give a place to the devil. As a direct result of our anger because when we lose control of our own emotions, the devil has won a victory! The devil is a thief who comes only to rob steal kill and destroy us. If we give the devil even one inch or one meter, he will take a whole mile from us.
The devil comes to steal our joy our peace and our fellowship with Jesus Christ and fellow believers. The devil comes to kill us. He knows full well he cannot destroy our spirit. Because he cannot rob us of our everlasting life! But he can kill our minds and destroy our souls during this life only!
The devil comes to destroy us he can destroy our families, our homes, neighborhoods for example. The human family is what God has based the foundation of human society. Some of his worse assaults has been to destroy the family units. Usually he accomplishes it via absentee fathers and/or mothers.
The devil is the world's greatest lairs of all times. He is murderer from the beginning of time and a liar. He hates God, His Holy Angels, His Heavenly and His Earthly Saints! By destroying God's created beings, he can strike back at His own Creator! He was a usurper who wanted to kick God off of His throne and take His place! He lead one third of his angels against God!
He was the snake in the Garden of Eden who deceived Eve. And who caused Adam to also sin against God! Adam and Eve were forgiven. Why because sin already existed! However, God cannot forgive Satan, because sin originated through him alone. Neither can He forgive his fallen angles or demonic spirits! Resist the devil and he shall flee from you! Bound, the strong man, the devil himself!
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name!

All of God's people on the earth

Love is a many splendored thing
but can anyone express it so real?
as does God who shows it so great
what can compare for His is the real deal
As well as displaying His special love
mercy is mixed in along with it too
God's mercy has a richness beyond words
so the divine cordial is so very true
Receiving this special godly gift
for our transgressions made us dead
having no life in ourselves at all
Christ came in as the living bread
Now being found alive in Christ
saved from sin by God's grace
for HIs love so abundant and free
reaches down come unto me He says
Who can describe truly God's love?
displayed on the cross for all to see
Jesus died at Calvary for His own
displaying His love on Golgotha's tree
("But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions-it is by grace you have been saved." Ephesians 2:4-5)

I would, help me LORD Jesus, advise 3 Scriptures for learning more about the Holy Spirit's role on earth and in CHURCH, as Jesus is at the right hand of God
II
John 14 is a part of the Gospels that explains what Jesus intended for the Holy Spirit among His followers. Romans 8 (26-end) explains how the Holy Spirit even "teaches" us the truth about prayer, including for the Creation that's groaning. I read Dr. Jenn Proxenos's poem today about the environmental damage humans are doing to our planet-village! Sometimes, we are at a loss how to pray. Third Scripture: Read Ephesians 4, and see why the New Testament can be summed up in: DONT' GRIEVE and DONT LEAVE -do not grieve the Holy Spirit AND do NOT abandon faith in Jesus's sacrifice for our sins/freedoms!
III
Next, I want to expose the lie of so-called pastors who "cause" church goers to fall down (allegedly slain in the spirit) during worship of the Holy Spirit, or God(?). Read ahead Romans Chapter 8, verse 11.

"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 ... Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace." SOURCE: Book of Ephesians chapters 3 and 4 (NIV edition of the Bible by Zondervan, 1984).
POEM:
We want peace, we mean it
We seek peace, we need it
Where is the start, how to begin
Does Scripture lead all to win-win?
I have been seeking, now Christian
I quoted Gita (Sanskrit) with devotion
Today I say the Bible has it all
Even how to forgive, the STEPS, above all
It is easy to say Forgive! Love! change!
If churches do that, they spin in chains
Only the Spirit can teach, See John 14
Through Scripture, slow, prayer and pain
But it is the most rewarding pain
To pray: "Tell me about Jesus" again
The Gospels try, but Jesus sent You
Spirit starts real change, it's TRUE
That is why Paul prayed, as he stayed
In Ephesus, the nation Turkey, of today
May the Spirit help keep your new bonds of Peace
Empower your INNER BEING! (God enjoys THAT praise)
PRAYER: I pray, In Jesus' great Name and through His precious blood, for peace in Ukraine and in Russia, across God's good earth; in humble adoration, LORD in Three Persons, I seek Spirit's guidance to help us understand love, forgiveness, and true peace. In your son's name, for thy Kingdom, in Jesus amen and amein

God's blessings fill this book
to the fullest is given to read
in Ch. 1 spiritual blessing in Christ
prays with thanks for the promised seed
In Ch. 2 salvation is explained
God's purpose comes by grace through faith
so now believers are one in Christ
reconciled by His blood scripture saith
The apostle Paul tells here in Ch. 3
of the mystery of the gospel no less
shows the Gentile's, fellow heirs in Christ
this the Lord has revealed to bless
One body and one spirit overall
united together by faith to maintain
put on the new self, created by God
as Ch. 4 explains for Christ to reign
So be imitators of God, walk in love
for Christ loved us and died in our place
understand God's will be filled by His spirit
this Ch. 5 makes clear, shows God's grace
Ch. 6 tells of God's armour to be worn
to fight off the devil's fiery darts
this Paul sums up in his final words
as God's purpose is to encourage our hearts
(Ephesians is a book filled with Divine understanding inspired by the Holy Spirit, So I have tried to bring awareness to those who may find it difficult to grasp.)
