Colossians 1:9-10 (NKJV) 9 For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 10 that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;<\/p>\n

As Paul addressed the Colossian believers, he wanted to encourage them and counsel them to grow in their walk with God.<\/p>\n

Paul truly understood the importance of this in a way that many others did not. And he wanted them to know how deeply this impacts the life of every believer.<\/p>\n

Paul was so adamant about it that he prayed for them to \u201cbe filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding\u201d.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important for us to understand that this goes far beyond our minds and our human comprehension of who God is.<\/p>\n

This is spiritual at its root, and we need to be able to embrace it in our spirits, not by our intellect.<\/p>\n

Paul wanted them to be filled with the knowledge of His will for their lives.<\/p>\n

This doesn\u2019t just refer to knowing the plan for your life in reference to the big picture, but walking in His will every day of our lives, as we move from one moment to the next.<\/p>\n

This\u00a0kind of understanding doesn\u2019t happen by accident. It comes as we \u201cwalk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him\u201d.<\/p>\n

This comes as we make a conscious (purposeful) effort, diligently studying His word and spending time communing with Him (praying), seeking His leading and guidance every day.<\/p>\n

This is referred to in the verses above as \u201cwalking worthy of the Lord\u201d, meaning that our lives will honor and please Him.<\/p>\n

And all of this leads to us \u201cbeing fruitful in every good work\u201d (producing many kinds of good fruit for the kingdom of God), as we learn to know God better and more intimately.<\/p>\n

We pray for this in the lives of each and every person who reads this. Amen<\/p>\n
