Ephesians 3:14-21
3 prayers from this passage, for betrayal, fear & anxiety, doubt
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 to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ. Ephesians 3:14-21 (NIV)
What was going on when this was written
A prayer rather than a teaching. Paul asks that they would grasp something he then admits surpasses knowledge, so the not-understanding is written into the request itself.
