Prayers to Pray Throughout the Year

A Prayer to Know-Ephesians 1:18-20 

                   "I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which He has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in His Holy people, and His incomparably great power for us who believe." That power is the same as the mighty strength  He exerted when He raised Christ from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the Heavenly realms."

                  What do we get when we pray this prayer or what should we be praying from these 
                   verses:
                           -To get and have Hope in God
                           -Then to be called the Child of God (Inheritance)
                           -Then to have the power/boldness to tell others about Him.
         
          

A Prayer to Be-Ephesians 3:14-19

                 "For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in Heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches He may strengthen you with the power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through Faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord's holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, to know this love that surpasses knowledge-that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God." 

                What do we get when we pray this prayer or what should we be praying from these
                verses:
                           -Strengthen us with His Power starting in our inner being
                           -That Christ might dwell in our hearts through Faith
                           -Have the power to grasp how wide, long, and deep the love of Christ is
                           -To know that love that surpasses all understanding
                           -To be filled with all the fullness of God.


"Make my joy complete by being in the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in Spirit, intent on one purpose."-Phil. 2:2


I want to pray these two prayers throughout the year for my life. Do you?
