By Ephesians 3:14-19 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
I desire so much that my family would be named in heaven; in the Lamb’s book of life. No matter what I may attempt in order for that to happen, I know that I do not have that kind of power. As a matter of fact, I have been learning over and over again that I have no hope in changing a heart. Yet it is for this reason I bow my knees before the Father. For from him every family in heaven and on earth is named. He alone is the one who can grant the gift of the Holy Spirit, so that Christ may dwell in each member of my family’s heart. He alone gives the strength of comprehension, so that we may know the love of Christ, and all be filled with the fullness of God!
This day, with newness of vigor, I bow my knee before the Father in heaven so that my family may have his named stamped upon our hearts. O let it be according to your word Lord Jesus! Amen!
