Ephesians 6:19 “Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel.” Paul had a special prayer request. He wanted to always represent his Heavenly Father and he wanted to always be brave, accurately understand and then explain the truths of God. We can all pray that same prayer for each other. All Christians want to represent, understand and communicate accurately the absolute truths of God and His Word. Another great reason to study His Word.

Ephesians 6:10 “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. The power of God is impossible for you and me to comprehend. Let’s take a few examples: He created the world with all its complexities in 6 days. He rose from the dead. He has no beginning and no end. He listens to all of us as we pray or talk to Him. He knew you and me before He created this world. He is going to bring us to Himself in Heaven and we will live forever. Nothing is beyond His understanding. Why possibly would we not honor and enjoy the love of our magnificent Heavenly Father? Have a great weekend.

Ephesians 6:1 “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.” Children, grandchildren and great grandchildren are one of the outstanding blessings God has given to a husband and wife. No asset any of us own has more value. When children are raised with God as the center of the family and love dominates the family relationship, nothing brings more happiness to life.

Ephesians 5:28 “In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.” If husbands would keep this passage at the forefront of their relationship with their wives, divorce would be nonexistent. No husband, no wife and no children are perfect, but when God’s Word and truths are the focal point of life, the best of life on this earth will be the result.

—– Forwarded Message —– From: Richard Waldschmidt Sent: Tuesday, January 11, 2022, 07:51:21 AM CSTSubject: Be careful–be wise Ephesians5:15-17 “Be very careful, then, how you live–not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.” A friend of mine just text me that her aunt just died of alcoholism. 261 people in the U.S. die daily from alcohol abuse. If you suffer, get help. If you know of someone who suffers–help them. Help them help themselves–nothing good comes from alcoholism. This passage speaks directly to this issue. Please pray for my friend and her family.
