Today’s Scripture To Pray For Your Family

Ephesians 1:15-20: “Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places.”

Prayer: Lord, this prayer that Paul prayed for the church of Ephesus is the prayer I pray for my family and my children. Lord, I do not cease to give thanks for the blessing of family and who You have given me; all gifts. I pray that you will give my children the spirit of wisdom and revelation in knowing who You are, that the eyes of their understanding would be opened, that they would know what is the HOPE of their calling, that they would know the riches of our inheritance in You, and what is the exceeding greatness of Your  power toward us.
