 • Ephesians 4:1-10  Luke 11:1-4

            ☀️ Ephesians 4:1-10

1 - Therefore I (Paul) in shackles because of the faith of the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you’ve been called. 2 With humility and gentleness, and patience and forbearance with one another, with love.

     3 Be sincere and eager to maintain the bond of peace, in the unity of God’s Spirit {his presence with}.

     4 For there is one body. One Spirit. {As there is one humanity with all its beautiful branches.} And we are all called to the one hope [elpís - from elpō - anticipation, a welcome expectation of what is sure and certain}. The hope {happy expectation} that belongs to the calling.

     5 There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in all. 7 But grace is given to each one of us according to the measure of Christ's gift. 8 That is why it says, “When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive! And he gave gifts.”

     9 And in saying, “He ascended,” what does it mean but that he had also descended into the lower part of the earth. {The grave, 2Pet.2:5 answers 1Pet.3:19, prison as locked into what was coming, Eccles.9:5,10.}

     10 And He is the, one, who then ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all. [Pas - every, all, the whole.]

            🌙 Luke 11:1-4

1 - Jesus was in a quiet place praying, and afterwards, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples to pray.”

     2 So he said, “When you pray, pray like this, ‘Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed [hagiazó - sacred, holy, set apart] is your name. Your kingdom come, and your will be done upon Earth, as it is in heaven. 3 Give us this day our daily bread, 4 and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And let us not be led into temptation, but deliver us from evil.’”

     {A 2025 note.. My Father in heaven, blessed and honored be your name.. Please let your kingdom come that it be upon earth as it is in heaven, saturated and full of your Spirit. Give me today all grace and spiritual bread I need.. And forgive my faults and flaws as I overlook other’s. And please don’t let me be led into any evil or temptation, or delusion! (2026)

   But keep me in your Presence. Keep us all in your Presence, Father, amen. …“yesterday I was in the grip of a foul spirit, today let me praise and give thinks..” ..What I call an inner bad, angry mood.}

1 - Jesus was praying, and afterwards one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.” 2 And so he said, “When you pray, say, ‘Father, hallowed be your name, let your kingdom come! 3 Give us each day our daily bread, 4 and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who have trespassed against us. And let us not be led into temptation.’”

     5 He also said, “Which of you if you have a friend, and you go to him at midnight and say, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves! 6 For a friend has arrived on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him’. 7 And he will answer from his house, ‘Don’t bother me! The door is shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give you anything.’ 8 I tell you, though he won’t get up, because you’re his friend. But because of your insistence, he will rise and give to you whatever you need. 9 And so I tell you, ask, and it’ll be given to you. Seek, and you’ll find. Knock, and it’ll be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks, it will be opened. 11 What parent among you, if your child asks for a fish, will instead give them a serpent? 12 Or if they ask for an egg, will give them a scorpion? 13 If you then, who are evil [ponéros - toilsome, bad] (a hamartian - imperfect) know how to give good gifts to your children - how much more - will the heavenly Father give his Holy Spirit{/Presence} to those who ask him!”

🍃🕊️ 03/28 - GospeL Verses 🕊️🍃

                (paraphrased)

5 - (His disciples had said, “Lord teach us to pray..) Jesus said to them, “Which of you who has a friend will go to them at midnight and say, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves, 6 someone has arrived on a long journey, and I have nothing to set before them’. 7 And the friend will answer, ‘Don’t bother me, the door is shut, my children are with me in bed and I cannot get up and give you anything’? 8 I tell you, though they will not get up and give you anything because they are your friend, if you insist, they will rise and give you whatever you need. 9 And so I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened to you. 10 For whoever will ask, will receive. Whoever seeks will find. And to whoever knocks, it will be opened. 11 What parent among you, if their child asks for a fish, will instead give them a serpent? 12 Or if they ask for an egg, will give them a scorpion? 13 If you then, who are evil [ponéros - evil, bad, wicked, malicious, slothful; from pónos - pain, laborious trouble] know how to give good gifts to your children - how much more, will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!” {The answer to all things.}
