VERSE:
Since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying
for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will
through all spiritual wisdom and understanding.
-- Colossians 1:9
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=Colossians+1:9
THOUGHT:
Paul wrote these words to the Christians at Colossae, but he had
never been there. Despite his lack of "in person" knowledge, he
ministered effectively to the Colossians. He prayed specifically
for them to better know God and his will for them. What a great
idea! Let's find a mission church (inner city, overseas, hostile
environment) and start praying consistently for that congregation,
asking God to help them know him and his will more perfectly.
PRAYER:
Holy and all powerful God, bless my church family with a deeper
knowledge and appreciation of your nature, character, and grace. In
addition, please bless ___ (add your mission church of choice) with
growth, health, and most of all, knowledge of you. In Jesus' name I
pray. Amen.
