Ephesians 4

Thank you, Father, that through your Apostles and Prophets and pastors and teachers, you have equipped me to be useful to you in your ministries. You have saved me, converted me, and you edify me. I have come into a unity of the faith in, and the knowledge of, Jesus as your Messiah and my Lord and Savior.

You have drawn me together with other believers and placed me as a part of your body, the church. You have matured me toward the fullness of the stature of Christ. Now I am no longer childish and tossed to and fro in my doctrine.

Instead, by your grace and your living word, I am growing up in all the things of Christ. I have put off my old man and my former conduct, and now, praise you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, I am renewed in the spirit of my mind. I am a new creature created according to your plan, Father, in true righteousness and holiness.
