Paul's prayer for the Ephesians was that they would be strengthened by the Spirit of God in their inner person, that Christ would dwell in their hearts through faith, and that they would be rooted and grounded in love, understanding the greatness of the love of God for them and be filled with all the fullness of Christ. This is a good prayer for us to pray over one another about the coming year.
