"And so, from the day we heard,
we have not ceased to pray for you,
asking that you may be filled with 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.
May you be strengthened with all power,
according to his glorious might,
for all endurance with patience and 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."
~Apostle Paul
Colossians 1:9-13
Hallelujah!!
May the beauty and profound truth in these verses find rest in the inmost chambers of your heart today that you may have endurance with patience and joy in all the you encounter. If you have a personal relationship with Christ, remember that you are no longer under the domain of darkness but share in His kingdom! We have been redeemed and forgiven!
Strength, peace, joy and fruitfulness be yours today in the name of our blessed Redeemer and Lord!

AMEN! I had this scripture written out as a personal prayer and as a prayer over my children some time ago and I would regularly pull it out and pray it out!
ReplyDeleteI think a rummage in my bedside table is in order to pull it out again! Thanks for this encouragement today!
I also wanted to pay you forward a compliment with the "stylish blogger award" here:
