The Apostle Paul has given us some wonderful prayers to pray in tho book of Ephesians and Colossians. Prayers for God's light and wisdom. These prayers can be prayed daily for wisdom, revelation and understanding. In these prayers, He is asking God for all of His fullness, and for a revelation of God not just for himself, but for every believer.
Some have taken these prayers and prayed them for themselves until that revelation comes. Do you have that revelation yet, of God's goodness and mercy, of His love for you, and who you are in Christ? You can pray these prayers, and remember... God watches over His Word to perform it.
"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given to him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering."
James 1:5:6
Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, Cease not 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 unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him; the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints.
For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man; that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth and height; and to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God.
Now unto Him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, unto Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end.
Father and God of our Lord Jesus Christ, Father of glory, I ask that you give to me the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of You; the eyes of my understanding being enlightened, that I may know what is the hope of Your calling, and what are the riches of the glory of Your inheritance in the saints.
For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, of whom the whole family in heaven and earth are named, that You would grant me according to Your riches in glory to be strengthened with might in the inner man; that Christ may live in my heart by faith; that I being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints, what is the breadth and length and depth and height; and to know the love of Christ which passes all knowledge, that I might be filled with all the fullness of God.
Now unto Him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in me, unto Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end.
For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
Strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: In whom we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
Father in Heaven, I desire to be filled with the knowledge of Your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, that I might walk worthy of You to please You, and to be fruitful in every thing that I do, increasing in the knowledge of You.
Strengthen me with all might according to Your glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness.
I give thanks to You, for You have made me able to be a partaker of the inheritance of the saints in light; You have delivered me from the power of darkness, and have translated me into the kingdom of Your dear Son; In whom I have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of my sins.
