Prayer for the Ephesians to Know the Love of Christ

14 For this reason I bow my knees in prayer before the Father [fn]of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named. 16 I pray that, according to the riches of his glory, he would grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, 18 as you are being rooted and grounded in love. I pray that you may be able to fully comprehend, together with all the saints, how wide and long and [fn]deep and high 19 is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we could ask or imagine, according to the power at work within us—21 to him be glory in the church [fn]in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
