Before saying two more prayers for the believers in Ephesians chapter three, Paul tells them about this mysterious plan of God for them; "And this is God's plan: Both Gentiles and Jews who believe the Good News share equally in the riches inherited by God's children. Both are part of the same body, and both enjoy the promise of blessings because they belong to Christ Jesus." Ephesians 3:6 For all who accept Jesus, Gentiles and Jews together make up the body of Christ. Gentiles and Jews together enjoy the promise of God's blessings. Next, Paul says these two prayers that I believe every Christian should pray for themselves regularly; "I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he (God) will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit." Ephesians 3:16. There is a kind of strength that comes from the Holy Spirit. When that power is at work within us, we will be able to do the works God has called us to. He also prays that; "And may you have the power to understand, as all God's people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his (God's) love is." Ephesians 3:18. When you come to comprehend the depth of God's love for you, that's what it means to mature, you understand your sonship and who, you truly are, in Christ.
