Message Notes
Power in Prayer
Ephesians 3:14-20
Gospel Centered Hope for the Haven Community and Beyond
1) Paul sought STRENGTH and got his POWER from God through PRAYER. (v.14-16)
· The power comes from the spirit and strengthens our inner being
· Inner strength is something we all need in 2021!
· Paul knew that God is the only one who can provide it.
2) Prayer grounds us and roots us in LOVE. (v.18-19)
· Prayer Helps Us….
o See people the way God sees them
o See situations the way God wants us to see them
o See more clearly what God is doing through these people and situations
3) Prayer REMINDS who is really doing the work. (v.20)
· God can do more than you ask
· God can do more than you think
I believe God is doing something here in Haven that he has called us to, but I think he is doing and preparing to do far more than we could ever ask in our nation and around the world!
I PRAY we have the PERSPECTIVE to not miss what God is doing in our world today!
