DO NOT CEASE PRAYING

Colossians 1:9-12

For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light.

Personal Challenge

Paul commits to be praying for his brothers and sisters in Christ. He asks that we do the same. We can pray for our needs, but is more fruitful to be praying for others and their needs. So, what do pray for in the lives of others? We pray that they will be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. We pray that they may walk worthy of Him, pleasing Him, being fruitful in good work and increasing in the knowledge of Him. We pray that they might be strengthened in Him and to grow in Him. As we pray for others this way, we too are blessed. Glory be to God!
