I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of the strength of His might which He brought about in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places,

—Ephesians 1:18-20

One of the things Paul prayed for in Ephesians 1:16–20 was that we would know the power that raised Christ from the dead. According to Paul, the way to know this power is to have a spirit of wisdom and revelation (v. 17). If we truly want to know the power of the Lord’s resurrection in our daily life, we must know and exercise our spirit. This is why as we pray over the Bible with our spirit the power of the Lord’s resurrection becomes real to us.

From Philippians: That I May Gain Christ by Titus Chu, p. 197
