Paul resumes the prayer he began earlier in the chapter and bows his knees before the Father. He asks that the church would be strengthened with power through the Spirit in the inner man, so that Christ may dwell in their hearts through faith. Rooted and grounded in love, the saints are to comprehend with all the church the breadth and length and height and depth of Christ’s love, a love that surpasses knowledge, and be filled up to all the fullness of God.
The prayer ends in doxology: to the God who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or understand, according to the power that works within us, be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever.
