And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light.

"For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith - that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breath and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen."

And he put all things under his feet and gave him as head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all."

The Lord's Prayer - Matthew 6-9-13

Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Your Kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily
bread.
And forgive us our debts.
As we forgive our debtors.
And do not lead us into
temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom and
the power and the glory
forever. Amen. ( New King James Version )


Our Father in heaven
Reveal who you are.
Set the world right;
Do what's best -
as above, so below.
Keep us alive with three square meals.
Keep us forgiven with you and forgiving others.
Keep us safe from ourselves and the Devil.
You're in charge!
You can do anything you want!
You're ablaze in beauty!
Yes. Yes. Yes. ( The Message )


Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name. 1
Your kingdom come,
your will be done, 2
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread, 3
and forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our
debtors,
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. 4 (ESV )


1. Or Let your name be kept holy, or Let your name be treated with reverence.
2. Or Let your kingdom come, let your will be done.
3. Or our bread for tomorrow.
4. Or the evil one.
