“What I’m a part of is bigger than the part I play.”

 Ephesians 3:10-21 New King James Version

10 to the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places, 11 according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord, 12 in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him. 13 Therefore I ask that you do not lose heart at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
Appreciation of the Mystery

14 For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,[a] 15 from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— 19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

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, 21 to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.


Paul prays 5 things for believer and for/over the church:

-       that we would be empowered with strength v.16

-       that Christ will make His home in our hearts v.17

-       that we would be rooted (deeply) in His love. v. 17b

-       that we would understand His love v. 18

 Note: Paul prays that we would have the power to understand His love, how wide, how high, how deep, how long and that we would experience His love. v. 19
These are things we should pray over one another and the church when this is done  the results are in verse .20

Do you have a big vision or a Life Time Dream for what God can do in your life? Because whatever you think or ask, He is able to do INFINITELY MORE!!!
What would it look like if God did more than we ever imagined?
We are a part of something so much bigger than ourselves lets go out and make disciples in His Name.
