PRAYER POINTS 

Begin with praising the name of the Lord. God instructs us to enter His gates with thanksgiving and praise.

Today’s prayer is focused on Paul’s prayer from Ephesians 3.

“I pray that from God’s glorious, unlimited resources He will empower you with inner strength through His Spirit. Then Christ will make His home in your hearts as you trust in Him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep His love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now all glory to God, who is able, through His mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to Him ... forever and ever! Amen” (Ephesians 3:16-21, NLT)

 Long ago the Lord said …:  “I have loved you my people, with an everlasting love. With unfailing love I have drawn you to myself.” Jeremiah 31:3 (NLT)

 “I pray… you be able to FEEL and UNDERSTAND how long, how wide, how deep, and how high His love really is; and to EXPERIENCE this love for yourselves.”  Ephesians 3:17-19 (LB)

 “We know and rely on the love God has for us. GOD IS LOVE. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.” 1 John 4:16 (NIV)

 “I am the good shepherd.  The good shepherd is willing to die for the sheep.”  John 10:11 (GN)

 “The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want.”  Psalm 23:1 (KJV)

 I can have no wants because…

 1. GOD   ME AND HE   LOVES ME!

 “I am the good shepherd; I know My sheep and My sheep know Me” John 10:14 (NIV)

 “God even knows how many hairs are on your head.”  Matthew 10:30 (NCV)

 “The Lord is good to everyone; He is merciful to all He has made.”  Psalm 145:9 (NCV)

 “Yes, God’s riches are very great, and His wisdom and knowledge have no end!  No one can explain the things God decides or understand His ways.”  Romans 11:33 (NLT)

 “He [God] is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you.”  1 Peter 5:7 (LB)

  HOW CAN I RESPOND TO A LOVE LIKE THAT?

 1. I MUST   GOD’S UNCONDITIONAL LOVE

 “God has shown how much He loves us; it was while we were still sinners that Christ died for us.”  Romans 5:8 (GN)

 “To all who believed Him and accepted Him, He gave the right to become children of God.”  John 1:12 (NLT)
