  5. Ephesians 3:14-21 14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, 16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, 19 and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God. 20 Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, 21 to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.

  6. Ephesians 2:15-22This Reason 15 says you are one new man. 16 says you all are one body. 17 says you who are far off are now made near. 18 says we both have access by one Spirit. 19 says we are fellow citizens and of the household of God. 20 says we are built on the foundation of the prophets and the apostles. 21 says we are a building that grows to a holy temple of the Lord. 22 says we are built together for a habitation of God through the Spirit.

  7. Ephesians 3:14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father,  

  8. Ephesians 3:16 16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 

  9. Ephesians 3:16 • that He would grant you, • according to the riches of His glory, • to be strengthened in the inner man,

  10. Strength in the Inner Man 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 7 Because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me—to keep me from exalting myself! 8 Concerning this I implored the Lord three times that it might leave me. 9 And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. 10 Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ’s sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong.

  11. Strength in the Inner Man 2 Cor 4: 7 We have this light from God in our human bodies. This shows that the power is from God. It is not from ourselves. 8 We are pressed on every side, but we still have room to move. We are often in much trouble, but we never give up. 9 People make it hard for us, but we are not left alone. We are knocked down, but we are not destroyed. 10 We carry marks on our bodies that show the death of Jesus. This is how Jesus makes His life seen in our bodies. … 16 This is the reason we do not give up. Our human body is wearing out. But our spirits are getting stronger every day.

  12. Ephesians 3:16 • that He would grant you, • according to the riches of His glory, • to be strengthened in the inner man, • with power through His Spirit   • so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith
