STRENGTHEN … INNER BEING / EPHESIANS 3:16-19

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Ephesians 3:16-19

That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; 17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; 19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

STRENGTHEN … INNER BEING / EPHESIANS 3:16-19

To be strengthened by the Spirit in the “inner being” is to have our spirits filled with the energy of His life and to have our souls (our motives, desires, feelings, thoughts and purposes) placed more and more under the Spirit’s influence and direction. In the most complete sense, this allows God to show His power through us in greater ways. There are four aspects to the purpose of this spiritual strengthening:

  1. That Christ may establish His presence in our hearts (Ephesians 3:16-17; Romans 8:9-10).
  2. That we may be grounded in sincere love for God, Christ and others.
  3. That we may comprehend with our minds and experience in our lives Christ’s love for us (Ephesians 3:18-19).
  4. That we may be filled with “all the fullness of God” (Ephesians 3:19; and Ephesians 1:23). God’s presence, through the Holy Spirit, should fill and saturate our lives in such a way that we reflect from our innermost being the character and honor of the Lord Jesus Christ (Ephesians 4:13, 15, 224-24).
