One of the responsibilities we owe one another as Christians; is that we pray for each other, and I love reading when the Apostle Paul mentioned how he prayed for the believers in Colossae. “For this cause we also, since the day we heard it do not cease to pray for you and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding” (Col. 1:9). What a powerful prayer to pray for another believer; once Paul had learned of the faith and love this young church was demonstrating among each other; he prayed that they would grow in their relationship with Christ. As Christians, we must desire to be filled with the “knowledge” of God’s will. Whatever we are filled with, will control our thinking, control our desires, and control our actions. But, God’s will is obtained from His Holy Word; it is impossible to be filled with the “will” of someone if you do not know them. The Bible is God’s revelation of Himself to us. His Word is where we learn of God’s Son Jesus and that He died for our sins. God’s Word is where we learn that Jesus rose on the third day morning and now is seated at the Father’s right hand. Therefore, we must grow in the “Wisdom” of God, which is found in the principles of His Holy Word. “Wisdom” and “Spiritual Understanding” are gifts of the Holy Spirit of God; they do not come from fleshly or worldly-minded folks. I want to encourage us this morning to “Set your (our) affection on things above, not on things on earth” Col. 3:2). Wisdom, along with Spiritual understanding, activates the power of the Holy Spirit to be lived out in our lives. Father, I pray for all our readers this morning that we would be “fill with the knowledge of your will,” that we may walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh. Be Blessed in Jesus Name
