Colossians 1:9-14 ESV — And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him: bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; being strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy; giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
------------------------------------------
We have been given very clear standards of what it looks like to live in a manner worthy of the Lord and to please Him!
7
*bear good fruit in EVERY good work
*increase in knowledge of God
*strengthened in power in HIS might to grow in endurance and patience...joyfully!
*give thanks to the Father because we are qualified to receive the inheritance of life only by Him
This is the reflection of the life we're called to live, but it only happens through knowledge of God's will and spiritual understanding and wisdom!
I pray you receive that today and you run to Him for more!
