One of the most powerful prayers in the Bible is found in Ephesians 1. I’ve slightly changed it by replacing the ‘you’ with ‘I’ or ‘me’ as that might help to realize the power of this prayer more fully.
The prayer:
‘All praise to God, the Father of my Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed me with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because I am united with Christ.
Even before he made the world, God loved me and chose me in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. God decided in advance to adopt me into his own family by bringing me to himself through Jesus Christ.
This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure. So I praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on me who belongs to his dear Son. He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased my freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave my sins.
He has showered his kindness on me, along with all wisdom and understanding. God has now revealed to me his mysterious will regarding Christ—which is to fulfill his own good plan. And this is the plan: At the right time he will bring everything together under the authority of Christ—everything in heaven and on earth.
Furthermore, because I am united with Christ, I have received an inheritance from God, for he chose me in advance, and he makes everything work out according to his plan.
God’s purpose was that the Jews who were the first to trust in Christ would bring praise and glory to God. And now I have also heard the truth, the Good News that God saves me. And when I believed in Christ, he identified me as his own by giving me the Holy Spirit, whom he promised long ago.
The Spirit is God’s guarantee that he will give me the inheritance he promised and that he has purchased me to be part of his own people. He did this so I would praise and glorify him.’
Ephesians 1:3-14 NLT
