Colossians 1:1-8 New King James Version
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ who are in Colosse:
Jesus, please help us reach out in faith to the faithful in our congregations.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Holy Spirit, please help us reach out with the grace and peace of Christ Jesus.
3 We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
Father, thank you for the fellowship we share in Jesus.
4 since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of your love for all the saints;
Jesus, thank you for the love and faith we share.
5 because of the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel,
Jesus, please help us share the hope we have in the resurrection.
6 which has come to you, as it has also in all the world, and is bringing forth fruit, as it is also among you since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth;
Holy Spirit, please help me share the truth of the gospel.
7 as you also learned from Epaphras, our dear fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on your behalf,
Thank you, Jesus, for those witnesses who brought me to faith.
8 who also declared to us your love in the Spirit.
Thank you, Holy Spirit, for the love we share through your witness.
A Word Received: Look to me with hope and expectation with what I will do with you in your resurrection life.
