and make it known to you.

Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know Him better. 18 I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened
in order that you may know the hope to which He has called you, the riches of His
glorious inheritance in the saints, 19 and His incomparably great power for us who
believe. That power is like the working of His mighty strength

things in Your law.

of Mysia, they tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not allow them to. 8 So they
passed by Mysia and went down to Troas. 9 During the night Paul had a vision of a man of Macedonia
standing and begging him, "Come over to Macedonia and help us." 10 After Paul had seen the
vision, we got ready at once to leave for Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to
preach the gospel to them.
