真知道祂 Know Him Better
以弗所的信徒已經有了天上各樣屬靈的祝福，在有的還要加給他的原則下，保羅為他們禱告，使他們能真知道祂，知道祂的恩召，祂的基業與祂的能力，恩召是過去的，基業是將來的，能力是現在的，目的是使他們對信仰更充滿了感恩與盼望，而且有能力去面前前面種種的困難。
Paul’s prayer was for the church in Ephesus to know Christ more — His calling in the past, His inheritance in the future, and the power available through Him in the present. In this message, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung urges us to grow in our knowledge of Him who fills us with gratitude, hope, and power to face any difficulty ahead.
