1 | Is this what we should pray? | Col 1:9 | fl1725 | 199382 | ||
Shalom brother Makarios, I am searching for something more - to me Paul was teaching us to pray for our brethren, not only to the Colossians. That we should ask God to fill us with knowledge of His Will for us, through spiritual wisdom (not human logic anymore) and understanding. The purpose of getting this knowledge is to live a life worthy of God that we can please Him in every way! Then we are to be fruitful rather then just focus on doing good works (Jesus taught us on this in John 15 too - to bear fruits). Also that our knowledge will grow continuously. God promise us that we can be strengthened with power from Him, to witness to His Glory. Then there is the preparation that we have to endure and persever, while giving thanks to God always, even under test of perseverance. Need to get views to confirm of my... Thank you brother. Shalom of God be with you. fl1725 |

2 | Is this what we should pray? | Col 1:9 | BradK | 199387 | ||
Hello fl..., I think you're on the right track with Col. 1:9-12. Paul's continual prayer asking to be filled with knowledge, spiritual wisdom and understanding is worthy of our attention. Our Pastor is currently preaching through Colossians and, in fact, just covered this prayer. It is not a popular one- given our "me" culture- but one that seeks to know His will and have a walk worthy! One thing I'm a firm believer in is: Praying scripture. If one doesn't know what to pray for, etc., just pray back the prayers of the NT (no offense to Jabez). Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
