"May the eyes of your heart be enlightened, that you may know what is the hope that belongs to his call, what are the riches of glory in his inheritance among the holy ones, and what is the surpassing power for us who believe." (Ephesians 1:18)
Jesus calls us to be a people of hope - for a joyful life in this world and eternal happiness in heaven. We are called to await with hope-filled anticipation the day we will be joined with Jesus forever in heaven. Eternal life is the greatest gift He gives us - an inheritance of eternal peace and joy, of eternal hymns of praise and thanksgiving, of eternal union with Him in His Triune form.
God's power surpasses all understanding. He has the power to give life in this world and to raise life to the fullness of glory in heaven. He has the power to forgive, transform, and heal us in body, mind, heart, and soul. He has defeated Satan with His almighty power and there is nothing He cannot do. If we believe in His power it will be manifest in our lives through the Holy Spirit. So, let's embrace the movement of the Holy Spirit in our lives and move in God's power and love with faith, hope, and trust.
Prayer:
Lord, You have overcome all. You are all-powerful and all-knowing. Fill my heart, mind and soul with the gifts of Your Spirit. I want to be a person of hope and love. Help me to be that for those around me. Let Your hope and love, peace and joy fill me and through me touch the hearts of others. Thank You for saving me. Thank You for blessing me. Thank You for all You do in my life. Amen.
