Praying with Paul: 'The Glory of God'

Ephesians 1:20-22

Dear Father, God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Glory.

Help me grasp something of your glory as I compare my experience to the great power which you displayed when you raised Christ from the dead. You made him sit down at your right hand in the heavenly places, far above every rule and authority and power and dominion.

Help me understand even more as I contemplate the fact that you lifted Jesus' name above every other name that is named, not only in this age but in the age to come, and that you put all things under his feet.

In the name of this magnificent Savior. Amen.
