Eph 1:18-19 “The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints. And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power.”

The power in the pronoun, the attributive ownership of the Hope, Glory and Power offered to us in Christ Jesus (vs 20).  And it’s Paul’s prayer that we don’t miss any of it.  Praying that our eyes be enlightened; “what the eye is to the body, that is the mind to the soul” compare Mt 6:22 “The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.” Paul, and Jesus in (Mt 6) and illustrating our spiritual vision to see clearly what God, the attributed owner of what we need, has for us. Calling us to a knowledge and understanding of the Hope in HIS calling in our life, the promised eternal inheritance in His glory for the saved, and the exceeding greatness of HIS power we can possess. Again, Paul is saying, and praying, don’t miss HIS Hope, Glory and Power; let God’s promises shine on your problems.

Don’t get caught up in the theatrics of church instead of the truth. It’s not about the entertainment, but rather the enlightenment.

Many will miss what they need to see because they are more focused on what they want.
