Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus,
and love unto all the saints,
Cease not to give thanks for you,
making mention of you in my prayers:
The eyes of your understanding being enlightened;
that ye may know what is the hope of his calling,
and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-word who believe,
according to the working of his mighty power.
Which he wrought in Christ,
when he raised him from the dead,
and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,
Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion,
and every name that is named,
not only in this world,
but also in that which is to come:
And hath put all things under his feet,
and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,
Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
Ephesians 1:15-23
Remember when we pray, it's not our power, but His. To be enlightened by His power, we must listen for His voice to be able to understand. It is the power within us who believe to receive the answer to our prayer.
Blessing,
Brother Gary
DON'T FORGET:
- God allows U-TURNS
- We're too blessed to be depressed
- When all else fails, trust God.

What a great thing you are doing! Thanks for the reminder that it is not our power but HIS power. And, boy am I glad that God allows
u-turns, I've needed to make quite a few.
Happy Thanksgiving to you & yours,
