Thanksgiving and Prayer

15For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesusi and your love for all God’s people,j 16I have not stopped giving thanks for you,k remembering you in my prayers.l 17I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father,m may give you the Spiritf of wisdomn and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightenedo in order that you may know the hope to which he has calledp you, the richesq of his glorious inheritancer in his holy people,s 19and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That powert is the same as the mighty strengthu 20he exerted when he raised Christ from the deadv and seated him at his right handw in the heavenly realms,x 21far above all rule and authority, power and dominion,y and every namez that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.a 22And God placed all things under his feetb and appointed him to be headc over everything for the church, 23which is his body,d the fullness of hime who fills everything in every way.f
