A Praying People

What happens when praise leads to prayer? In Ephesians 1:15-23, Paul shows us that recognizing the greatness of God’s blessings should not only lead us to worship but also to pray for others with power and confidence.

In this sermon, Steve McKenzie unpacks Paul’s passionate prayer for the church, revealing how thankfulness, wisdom, and spiritual enlightenment shape how we intercede for one another. Just as Paul prayed for believers to know the hope of God’s calling, the riches of their inheritance, and the immeasurable greatness of His power, we too are invited to pray boldly for our brothers and sisters in Christ.

What if our prayers became more than personal requests—what if they became lighthouse prayers, shining beyond ourselves and guiding others into deeper faith? Join us as we learn to pray with thanksgiving, wisdom, and confidence in God’s power.
