You have asked for that which the Apostle himself prayed for the saints at Ephesus, and it is a prayer that God delights to answer, for it seeks nothing less than Himself. The Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, this is the very essence of eternal life, according to our Lord’s own words: “This is life eternal, that they might know Thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent.” And until God reveals Christ in you by His Spirit, you cannot know Him savingly. You know about Him, perhaps, as you know of a distant king; but to know Him as your own, as the Son of the living God, given for you, that comes by a distinct revealing from the Father. Cry for that revelation, and be not content till the eyes of your heart are flooded with light.
What is the hope of His calling? It is a hope that anchors the soul, sure and steadfast, because it is grounded not on your fickle frames or feelings, but on the eternal purpose of God in Christ Jesus. There is a hope that springs from the nature of things when the Spirit gives it; a good hope through grace, which purifies even as it cheers. And what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints? Ah, that inheritance is exceeding broad, the Lord Himself is the portion of His people. In Christ are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge; the unsearchable riches of His grace are yours if you are in Him. Do not think you have already attained; there are glorious truths of God of which beginners know nothing, and through not knowing them they miss much joy. Press on to take possession of that broad land; the land that flows with milk and honey is before you.
You ask to know the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe. That power is nothing less than the power which raised the Lord Jesus from the dead and set Him at the Father’s right hand, far above all principality and power. Consider this: the same might that tore the bars of death asunder and lifted the stone from the sepulcher is engaged on your behalf. Is anything too hard for the Lord? This power is made perfect in your weakness; when you have no strength, then the power of Christ rests upon you. Learn to cry, “Abba, Father,” and you will find that you have power with God, not because any power originates in you, but because of what is in God. He has given you the Spirit of adoption, and that gives a wondrous power in prayer.
Now, all this is bound up in Christ. He is the power of God and the wisdom of God. Would you have wisdom? Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not to your own understanding. Policy is not wisdom, nor craft. True wisdom is to know Christ, to rest in Him, to be conformed to His image. The gospel of Christ is the power of God unto salvation; it turns sinners into saints and makes the feeble strong. If you would know these things experimentally, abide in Him, watch, and grow in dependence upon God. The Lord will teach you, line upon line; He will open the Scriptures to you, and the Comforter will bring all things to your remembrance. Only let your faith hang wholly upon the finished work of Christ, for it is in Him that God beholds us with favor, and through Him all the riches of glory are conveyed.
Therefore, let your prayer ascend day and night for this wisdom and revelation. He who spared not His own Son will with Him freely give you all things. You have a throne of grace, where the Lamb stands as though slain, ever interceding. There you may come with boldness. The true sayings of God assure you that, being justified by faith, you have peace with God; and the hope of glory shall not make ashamed. May the Lord give you to know these things, not as mere words upon a page, but as the living experience of your soul, till you are filled with all the fullness of God.
