Colossians 1:1-14
To God’s holy people in Colossae, the faithful brothers and sisters[a] in Christ:.
because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love you have for all God’s people the faith and love that spring from the hope stored up for you in heaven and about which you have already heard in the true message of the gospel that has come to you. In the same way, the gospel is bearing fruit and growing throughout the whole world—just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and truly understood God’s grace.
For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you[f] to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light.
Being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience.
Why?
There are many false teaching among churches. So we need to know the truth of the Lord then we may identify which is false.
Our Lord will fill us with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives. So we should pray to the Lord to give us the Holy Spirit to get more wisdom and understanding about the word of the Lord.
How?
Dear Lord, I need your Spirit to teach me and understand your word and be willing to implement your mission in my life.
