Ephesians 1:15-23
For this reason, ever since I heard
about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s
people, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in
my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the
glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him
better. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in
order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the
riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, and his
incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the
mighty strength he exerted when
he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in
the heavenly realms, far above all
rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is
invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him
to be head over everything for the church, which is his
body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.
