Ephesians: Loved in Christ
What keeps you up at night? A sin you can't overcome? A situation out of your control? These realities are not meant to push us to despair but to desperation, dependence, and devotion to God through prayer. As Paul moves from our wealth in Christ (chapters 1-3) to how to walk in Christ (chapters 4-6), he pauses and prays that we would be strengthened from the inside out. When we come to God in the proper posture of prayer, understanding the purpose of prayer, we begin to see the power of prayer as the love of Christ fills us and transforms every aspect of our lives.
