Ephesians 3:1-13

Dear Father,

Thank you for all the prayers Paul prayed for the Christians whom he brought to you in his day and for those who came to you through their preaching.

Thank you for the impact that Paul has had on so many great churchmen through the ages.

Thank you for the pure waters that I, even I, have drunk from the well of his teaching.

Thank you, Father, for making provision to spread the Good News about Jesus over the whole earth, to every nation and language, that we might enter your kingdom. Thank you for allowing me to enter. I love you, Lord.

In the name of Jesus I give you thanks and make these requests. Amen.
