WORKETH IN US,
21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ
Jesus throughout all ages, world without end.
Amen.
If you are a believer, you can pray these prayers for
yourself by putting "I," "me," and "my" where Paul says
"you" and "your."
In these prayers, the Holy Spirit wants to reveal to
believers "the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the
knowledge of Jesus" (Eph. 1:17). What is the wisdom
and knowledge God wants to reveal to the believer
about Jesus Christ?
The Holy Spirit wants the eyes of our understanding
opened to understand Jesus' complete victory over
Satan in the triumph of the Cross. He wants us to
understand what Jesus' seating on High really means

Spirit wants to reveal to us is the believer's joint-
seating with Christ as a benefit of our redemption.
Joint-seating with Christ is a position of authority and
triumph over Satan. God wants us to see what we have
as rights and privileges by being in Christ.
