TEXT: COLOSSIANS 1:1-14
TOPIC: ALWAYS THANK GOD FOR JESUS
In most cases, people give thanks to a benefactor for acts of kindness that leave a lasting impression. This is especially so if such acts continue to bring favour and joy.
Paul, in today’s passage, shows his appreciation for the Colossian believers who received ‘grace and peace’ from God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (Colossians 1:1-3).
This grace brought salvation, demonstrated in their faith in Christ Jesus and love for other believers because of the hope they have in Christ.
The unique strength of the believers there was their unceasing prayer for others in the faith, prompting Paul to pray for their deeper
knowledge of Jesus.
QUESTION
How often do you thank God for other believers who are doing well in other churches or denominations?
PRAYER
Make me a loving believer who gives thanks to God for others doing well in the faith, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
