Scripture Prayer

Ephesians 3: 16-19

I’m asking God to give you a gift from the wealth of his glory. I pray that he would give you inner strength and power through his Spirit. Then Christ will live in you through faith. I also pray that love may be the ground into which you sink your roots and on which you have your foundation. This way, with all of God’s people you will be able to understand how wide, long, high, and deep his love is. You will know Christ’s love, which goes far beyond any knowledge. I am praying this so that you may be completely filled with God.


Father God, we pray this prayer for Father Shaw and Mother Julie and Lydia Mudge. Please continue to bless them in everything that they do for You. Jesus Christ, Our Savior, continue to dwell in them through faith. Let your love be the foundation of all their work. May they always know and always share how wide and long and high and deep is your love, which goes far beyond any knowledge. Fill the Mudges with your Holy Spirit. Fill them to overflowing so that they may be completely filled with the Holy Spirit and always impart your love and your Spirit to those to whom they minister.

Be with the Mudges this week as they visit family and friends in the U.S. Give them a time of rest and relaxation and refreshment and renewal. Thank You God, three in one: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.
