First Week: Family

This week spend some time every day praying with an extreme focus on yourself and your family. Pray for the people you live with and spend the majority of your time with. Pray for yourself, your spouse, your marriage, your future marriage, your children, your future children, your parents, brothers, sisters, etc. Pray for your home and all that live in it. Pray for God to move in your life and in the life of your entire family.

Weekly Scripture: Ephesians 3:14-21

For this reason, I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge-that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more that all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever!

Day 4: Prayer for the Ability to Grasp

Have you ever thought about how vast our universe is? It’s not something I think about every day but every now and then I have a realization about how insanely big the universe really is and how small I really am. God’s love is the same way. We interact with the love of God on a daily basis but we have no idea how vast God’s love really is. Paul prayed for people to have the power and ability to grasp the fullness of God’s love. Something changes significantly in our hearts and our perspective on things when we begin to realize how vast the love of Christ really was.

In your own way today pray the prayer for the “Ability to Grasp”

“I pray that you, along with the rest of God’s people, have the power and ability to grasp how wide, how long, how high and how deep the love of Christ truly is.”
