Paul prays that the Church would be able to comprehend, understand, grasp, and appropriate the glory of God in their lives. He prays, asking that believers not be the spiritual paupers mentioned just a moment ago. If God can work a wonderful plan that lavishes His grace upon us, then that plan must be able to work in your life as well. If God cannot work in your life, He cannot work at all. So, how does God's omnipotent and predetermined plan manifest itself in your life? The answer lies in our understanding of God's plan. What is the goal of God's plan? It is to take glory for Himself. Let us look briefly at God's glory in the Book of Ephesians up to this point in our study. You will find God's glory in 1.6, 12, 14, 18; and 3.16, 21. Now, if I said something six times, you would get the idea that I was trying to emphasize something. Paul emphasizes God's glory. God's glory, the sum total of all of His perfections, character, works, and excellence, is the goal of all that God does. If we are to live the Christian life rightly, we must understand the truth that God's glory is the goal of all that He does, including your redemption and sanctification. If you take nothing from this message, I want you to take the following: You must comprehend God's glory.
