Ephesians 1:17 - "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."
In the Biblical Perspective for this lesson Dr. Marsh Jones writes:
He was concerned that they would gain, through the Holy Spirit, more understanding (wisdom) concerning the Christian life and the ways of God. He was also praying that they would not be satisfied with their current status as Christians, but that they would grow spiritually (receive revelation) so that they could better and more fully acknowledge and experience Jesus Christ. This is a timeless prayer and one that we should constantly be offering for our fellow Christians and ourselves.
Question: Are you praying regularly for yourself to grow spiritually? Are you praying regularly for those in your Sunday school class and church to grow spiritually?
