through the church

First Reading: Psalm: Gospel:

Ephesians 3:2-12 (Ps) Isaiah 12:2-6 Luke 12:39-48

Ephesians 3:10  that through the church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places.

In this election season we look to the leaders to bring us peace and prosperity.  The church, however, is the means of God's wisdom.  Can we have true peace and prosperity without God's wisdom?  The politicians will not bring it, they will only lead us astray.  The church is the means of God's wisdom.

Father, hep me by your Holy Spirit to seek guidance from your word.  Help me to seek peace and prosperity through your wisdom as it comes to me though your church.

Amen
