💖 Loved to Love:
Living Out Ephesians Through Mark 12:31
📖 Ephesians 3:16–17
🌞 Good Morning, Wisdom Seekers!
Welcome to Week 3 of our “Loved to Love” journey. We’re diving into Ephesians 3, where Paul prays that we will be strengthened with power through the Holy Spirit and rooted in love through Christ.
This week is about going deeper—into God’s love and into relationships with others, especially those who are wired differently from us. Don’t just read this devotional—let it settle into your soul. We will begin with the P.R.O.M. from the PROMPTS Devotional
P – 🙏 PRAYER
Heavenly Father, thank You for strengthening me deep within. I often try to love others in my own strength, but today I ask that Your Spirit empower me to love well—especially those who are not like me. May my roots go deep into Your love so I won’t be shaken by conflict, difference, or discomfort. Strengthen every part of me to live like Jesus, love like Jesus, and welcome others like Jesus did. In His name, amen.
R – 📖 READ
Take some time to prayerfully read Ephesians 3.
Meditate on Ephesians 3:16–17 (NLT)
“I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit.
Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong.”
