Ephesians
Part 27 –
Praying for Words
Ephesians
6.17-24
What? “Prayer”
It is by prayer
that we wield the sword of the Spirit
If we pray
without the Word, we are rudderless
If we don’t
pray but have the Word, we are religious
When?
“At All Times”
If you’re going
to wield the sword, you must be a person of prayer
Prayer is
conversation, not recitation
Prayer is
dialogue, not monologue
Prayer: talking with God about mutual concerns
How? “Alert”
Stay Alert that
there is a war going on around us
Stay Alert with
Perseverance
It’s through
perseverance in prayer that our sense of its importance is sharpened
Whom? “All the Saints”
Prayer is
inherently relational
Paul asks for
prayer that his ministry would be effective
Paul makes sure
they pray in an informed way
Together we
become people who love our Lord Jesus Christ with love incorruptible
