Week 1- Pray to Know God Better
Ephesians 1:17-19
Notes:
*Sometimes we still pray for things that we already have (Eph. 1:13-14). Just access it by faith!
*God is not bothered if you keep on asking
*THE FOUNDATION OF ALL PRAYERS IS TO KNOW CHRIST BETTER
*Prayer is communication.. . We communicate to make things clear.. .
*It is not possible to know Him with your intellectual capacity
*The Holy Spirit can help us know God in a more experiential way
*You need the Spirit of God to know Him better
*You may know God but do you know Him personally?
*Ask for the Spirit of God to give you wisdom and revelation that the eyes of your heart (the real man) may be enlightened (for you to know what He specifically wants you to do) in order that you may know:
(1) the hope to which he has called you -- your calling, there is certainty about the Hope He gives us! IT IS FOR SURE!
(2) the riches of His glorious inheritance -- you and I
(3) His incomparably great power for us who believe -- the power to live for God.. . understand it by the Spirit
***GOD'S SPIRIT OPENS OUR EYES TO KNOW GOD AND EVERYTHING THAT WE HAVE IN CHRIST***
***
Lord, I pray for the one reading this.. that You may give them the Spirit of wisdom and revelation.. .that the eyes of his/her heart may be opened that he/she may know the hope to which You have called him/her.. . that he/she may know the riches of Your glorious inheritance.. . that he/she may know Your incomparably great power for him/her.. .
