Here Paul is explaining that he prays to the Father that He would pour out His Spirit of wisdom and revelation onto the Ephesians so that they would increased in their knowledge of Him. The more we know God the more we are able to find our way onto His path for us. If we have the mind of Christ in increasing measure within us we are able to navigate through the turns and twists, the victories and tragedies, the thicks and thins of this tumultuous earthly existence. It has become a cliche, "WWJD" but there is merit in walking out our lives in the ways that would resemble the ways of Christ. After all that is why we are known by His name, as Christians. We are his ambassadors, his reflection, his hands and feet and mouthpieces here on earth. We receive this blessing through prayer.
Paul is praying for this blessing to be poured out onto these believers as well we can pray in the same way asking the Father to grant us this wisdom and revelation.
- If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.
APPLICATION
I pray for this very same wisdom and revelation to know God better and to be found accomplishing His will for my life. Therein I will find Joy and Peace, Amen.
