I just love it when I find a prayer in the Bible that has parts from My TEA CUPP Prayers. Here is a beautiful prayer by the Apostle Paul for his Christian friends in Ephesus.
Thanks
15 Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, 16 do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers:
Exalt
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory,
Petition
may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him,
Understanding
18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened;
Calling
that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
Exalt
19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power 20 which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named,
Promise
not only in this age but also in that which is to come. Ephesians 1:15-21 (NKJV)
Today’s TEA CUPP: Can you use Paul’s prayer as a model for your own prayers today? Pray along with Paul to Jesus, adding your own special prayer requests.
