Shalom,
Today I am sharing again from Kenneth E. Hagin's "Faith Food" devotional.
Wisdom And Revelation
I Cease not to give
thanks for you, making mention of you in my
prayers. — EPHESIANS 1:16
Ephesians 1:17-23 and
3:14-21 are Spirit-given prayers which apply to the Church everywhere. The
turning point in my life came when I prayed them a thousand times or more for
myself. I would kneel, open my Bible, and say, “Father, I’m praying these
prayers for myself. Because they are Spirit-given prayers, this has to be Your
will for me, just as it was Your will for the Church at Ephesus.” Then I would
continue to pray by reading from these passages, except wherever Paul said,
“you,” I would substitute “me,” as follows:
That the God of our
Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto “me” the spirit of wisdom
and revelation in the knowledge of him:
The eyes of “my”
understanding being enlightened; that “I” may know what is the hope of his
calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
And what is the
exceeding greatness of his power to usward who believe, according to the
working of his mighty power,
Which he wrought in
Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in
the heavenly places . . . .
After about six
months, the first thing I was praying about started to happen: The revelation
of God’s Word began to come to me!
Confession: (Pray the prayer in Ephesians chapter one for
yourself.)
AMEN! These are powerful prayers that I pray for all of my friends, family and loved ones! I hope that you will, too! Here is Brandon Lake with "Kids":
Shalom in Him!
