Ephesians 1:15-23

A Model Prayer

Therefore I also, after I heard
of your faith in the Lord Jesus

and your love for all the saints,

do not cease to give thanks for you,
making mention of you in my prayers:

that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the Father of glory,

may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation
in the knowledge of Him,

the eyes of your understanding being enlightened;

that you may know what is the hope of His calling,

what are the riches of the glory
of His inheritance in the saints,

and what is the exceeding greatness of His power
toward us who believe,

according to the working of His mighty power

which He worked in Christ
when He raised Him from the dead

and seated Him at His right hand
in the heavenly places,

far above all principality and power
and might and dominion,

and every name that is named,

not only in this age
but also in that which is to come.

Ephesians 1:15-21

REFRESHING AND DOUBLE ANOINTING

• I will be refreshed as I continually resort to His Presence.

Be my strong refuge, To which I may resort continually; You have given the commandment to save me, For You are my rock and my fortress. Psalms 71:3 As I lay myself on the altar of GOD, I rest in Him. He will raise me up Spiritually with resurrection power like the LORD JESUS. ..that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, if, by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead. Philippians 3:10-11

Spiritual refreshing will lead to Spiritual revival, renewal and restoration Which is double anointing. But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you. Romans 8:11 As I lay my loved ones and Spiritual descendants on the altar, they will be restored to me double - Spiritually - Like Isaac and the sons that Elijah and Elisha brought back to life. Then they came to the place of which God had told him. And Abraham built an altar there and placed the wood in order; and he bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, upon the wood. And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. ..."blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies. Genesis 22:9-10, 17 And he said to her, "Give me your son." So he took him out of her arms and carried him to the upper room where he was staying, and laid him on his own bed. ... And Elijah took the child and brought him down from the upper room into the house, and gave him to his mother. And Elijah said, "See, your son lives!" 1 Kings 17:19, 23 And she went up and laid him on the bed of the man of God, shut the door upon him, and went out. ...And he called Gehazi and said, "Call this Shunammite woman." So he called her. And when she came in to him, he said, "Pick up your son." So she went in, fell at his feet, and bowed to the ground; then she picked up her son and went out. 2 Kings 4:21, 36-37 My prayer and intercession will be more Spirit-led and Scripture-based when I live a life of resurrection power. Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Romans 8:26 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21
