The following prayer is a prayer prayed by Paul for the Ephesian Church. I am taking his prayer and adapting it as a prayer for our Kids Quest families and each volunteer that serves in this ministry. If you choose, kneel when you pray Ephesians 3:14-21. Imagine the picture God sees when He looks down and sees us kneeling when we pray this together today!
"...I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of God's glorious riches He may strengthen the families of Kids Quest and each volunteer with power through His Spirit in their inner being, so that Christ may dwell in their hearts through faith. And I pray that each member of all families and each volunteer that serves in Kids Quest, whom are rooted and established in love, will have power, together with all the Lord's holy people; that each will grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ for each of them, and they will know this love that surpasses knowledge and be filled to the measure of ALL the fullness of God.
To You God, who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine in this ministry for children, in You is all power that works mightily through each volunteer and each family at River Club, to You we give praise and glory from this church, a slice of Fredericksburg, yet a powerful one at that, all because of Your great faithfulness to us and through us. We wait in great expectation for Your answer to this prayer in the coming days, weeks, months and year. In Jesus name, Amen."
