And I Pray This, That Your Love May Abound

"And I pray this, that your love may abound even more and more in knowledge and every kind of insight so that you can decide what is best, and thus be sincere and blameless for the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ to the glory and praise of God."  

Philippians 1:9-11

This was Paul’s prayer for the Philippians, and through God’s will, for every Christian through the ages. We pray this prayer to help grow our love for God, as well as our knowledge of Him and discernment of His truth.

By this prayer, we become mature Christians who bear fruit through our union with Christ. Quite often we are so consumed with asking God for His blessings, we lose sight of asking Him to grow us and lead us as children of God. Let us pray this prayer that our love, our knowledge, and our insight abound more and more.
