God Made Us Complete In Christ
All is not well in Colosse.
A heresy that Jesus Christ is
neither central nor supreme
is undermining the church.
Paul’s response to these
false teachings is two-fold.
First, he upholds Christ as the
preeminent Head of the church
Next, he speaks out against the
rituals and man-made regulations
which typify worship at Colosse.
Lord Jesus, were Complete In You:
We…(ask) God to fill you with the
Knowledge of His Will through all
spiritual wisdom & understanding
that u may walk worthy of the Lord,
fully pleasing Him, being fruitful
in every good work and increasing
in the knowledge of God(Col1:9-10)
Everything was created through
Him and for Him. He existed
before anything else & He holds
all creation together. And He is
the head of the body, the church..
that in all things He may have
the preeminence (Col 1:16-18).
In Christ the fullness of God lives
in a human body, and you are
Complete through your union
with Christ, who is the head of all
principality & powers(Eph 2:9-10)
Lord, I pray for the people You’ve put in my life and on my heart. Fill them with wisdom and under- standing and the knowledge of Your Will so that they will stay on the path You have for them. I pray they will learn to hear Your voice and come to know You better, so that they can have a closer walk with You. Amen.
Lord, You created me for Your
divine purpose; so help me be all that You created me to be and to do.
Dear Jesus, I adore You not only
for Your sacrificial love, but also condescending to live in & thru me.
Help me Lord to live in such a way
that I let You have the preeminence
in all things. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Lord Jesus, You are so completely
great and awesome! How can it be
that You have chosen to live in me?
And yet You have. Help me to
fully trust You, knowing that You
are in control of all situations;
for power & victory is in Your hand.
And that You are using everything
that happens in my life to show me
that I am Complete In You. Amen.
