PRAYING BASED ON THE REVELATION OF CHRIST (2)

EPHESIANS 1:15-17 (NKJV), PHILIPPIANS 3:10 (NIV)

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 *I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection …

We need to continually pray for God to grant us wisdom and revelation by His Spirit so we can know Christ and grow in our revelation of Him. For us to pray this powerful prayer sincerely and consistently, we must highly value the revelation of Christ like Paul did, (Phil.3:8).

The revelation of Christ is not ordinary. It is not like every other kind of knowledge or information you can get out there in the world. The revelation of Christ is so glorious and supernatural. Colossians 2:3 says in Christ is hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. The Passion Translation says, “For our spiritual wealth is in him, like hidden treasure waiting to be discovered—heaven’s wisdom and endless riches of revelation knowledge.”

It is the raw material the Holy Spirit uses to transform our lives (2 Cor.3:18, Rom.12:2). It is how we know who we are, what we have, where we are and what we can do now that we are saved. As we know these things, we lay hold of them and possess them in our lives. The Holy Spirit revealed who Christ was to Peter and Jesus told Peter that it is on that rock (as Christ is being revealed to believers) that He would build the church and the gates of hell will not prevail against the church, (Matt.16:13-18). We need the help of the Spirit to know Christ.

PRAYER:
DEAR FATHER, PLEASE GRANT ME THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM AND REVELATION SO THAT I MAY KNOW YOU AND KNOW CHRIST BETTER.
