The Prayer from Ephesians 1:15-19

It is good and we should pray this prayer for ourselves and others. However, I think there are more prayer details inside the content of these verses of which Paul did not specify. (It is like you go to someone and said "I have prayed for your spiritual growth" without telling him the specifics details of what you prayed for)

In Ephesians 1:15-19, Paul was telling the believers that he remembered them in prayer. He constantly gave thanks to God for them and prayed for them.
When we prayed this prayer (v17-19) for ourselves and others, we usually go through these pointers:
God will give us
- The spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him
- The eyes of our understanding being enlightened
- that we may know the hope of His calling
- that we may know the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints
- that we know what is the exceeding greatness of His power towards us

We can allow the Holy Spirit to guide us in this prayer. For example, when we pray that God give us the spirit of wisdom and revelation, we can pause and allow the Holy Spirit to drop impressions on how to pray along this theme. When we pray that the eyes of our understanding being enlightened, again we can pause and allow the Holy Spirit to guide us to pray specifically in this area.

Do not let prayer be a repetition of words or format without the passion.
Instead, prayer led by the Holy Spirit can be a wonderful experience.

Pray Ephesians 1:17-19 (AMP) 
¹⁷ [For I always pray to] the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, that He may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation [of insight into mysteries and secrets] in the [deep and intimate] knowledge of Him,¹⁸ By having the eyes of your heart flooded with light, so that you can know and understand the hope to which He has called you, and how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His set-apart ones), ¹⁹ And [so that you can know and understand] what is the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His power in and for us who believe, as demonstrated in the working of His mighty strength,
