Ephesians 1:15-23

Summary: At the heart of Paul’s prayer for the Ephesians is his desire that their hearts would catch up to their heads–that they would grasp more deeply the hope and inheritance that belong to them in the gospel. Coupled with this prayer is an extended discussion on the power of God exerted in the resurrection and ascension of Christ. As we contemplate the glory of Christ, exalted above all other powers and authorities, it secures our confidence that he can and will be faithful to his promises–and nothing and no one can do anything to stop him.
