Ephesians 1:15-23
I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.
Why?
Paul prayed for brothers and sisters of Ephesians may the Lord give them the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that they may know him better. What we need is the Spirit of wisdom and revelation. And this is a gift from the Lord, we cannot get it in this world.
Three gifts have been given to us:
1) We may know the hope to which he has called me.
2) the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people
3)His incomparably great power for us who believe.

神的計劃，教會應有的認知！保羅的禱告都有感恩！我們不要把感恩成為口頭禪！我們的禱告多是還沒有做的事情！
要從聖靈得著光照，知道就是認識，包括經歷，讓教會更深入、體會神的作為！我們將來的指望很難知道，體會，所以求聖靈給我們智慧，分辨什麼是有價值，什麼沒有價值的。明白神的計劃！把我們時間放在永恆的事情。
聖徒的基業，我們的榮耀是何等豐盛，我們外表一樣，似乎沒有太多改變！但是在神的眼中何等寶貴！
復活的能力，超越一切的權柄！教會與基督的關係合起來！

How?
To be Chrisitan we should feel more honored and praise the Lord for our many gifts from the Lord.
