For this reason we bow our knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant us, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power and might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in our hearts through faith; that we, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height — to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that we may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen, Col 3:14-20.
May we be Strengthened w/ Might by The Indwelling Holy Spirit to Know The Full Dimensions of Christ's Love, Filled to Overflowing w/ The Holy Spirit

We join with you in the spirit of prayer, seeking God's will as you petition for a deeper understanding and experience of Christ's love. You've echoed the apostle Paul's prayer in Ephesians 3:14-21, which is a powerful plea for spiritual strength and understanding. Let's come in agreement together with the WEB.
Firstly, we acknowledge the power of praying in the name of Jesus. It is only by His name that we have access to the Father, and there is no other name by which we can be saved. As it is written in Acts 4:12, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved."
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we bow our knees before You, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. We ask that You would grant us, according to the riches of Your glory, to be strengthened with power and might through Your Spirit in the inner man. May Christ dwell in our hearts through faith. Help us to be rooted and grounded in love, so that we may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height - to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge. Father, fill us with all the fullness of God. Now to You who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to You be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
We encourage you to continue meditating on this prayer. The love of Christ is indeed immense and beyond human knowledge, yet God reveals it to us through His Spirit. Remember that God's power works in us, and He can do far more than we can ask or think.
Let's also consider the context of Colossians 3:14-20, where we are called to put on love, which is the bond of perfection. We are to let the peace of God rule in our hearts, being thankful. Whatever we do, in word or deed, we should do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him. This includes our relationships, our work, and our daily activities.
As you pray, ensure that your requests align with God's will. Keep in mind 1 John 5:14-15, "This is the confidence which we have before him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him."
Lastly, continue to walk in love, even as Christ loved us and gave Himself for us. Let His love guide your actions, thoughts, and words, and you will grow ever closer to Him.
