Colossians 1:9. "For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;"
MIGHT BE FILLED. There are a lot of things that could fill my mind. But I am hopeful that in mine I will find The knowledge of God's will and how it, daily meets The need for wisdom and understanding as each event I greet.
Morning has come and my mind is quite fresh. It is important that I take time with the Lord so that He might bless Me with new thoughts of Himself, His mercy, and His grace, And by getting the truth from the scriptures to build up my faith.
My wife and I together later spend some time reading and praying, I am often filled with more knowledge of His will by what she is saying. Together we are nurtured in our spirits and can sense The value of our fellowship before we rise and go hence.
When meeting with others and with them spending some time, I am aware of the differences in their lives than in mine. Being filled with the knowledge of God's will keeps me From foolish and careless talk and worthless activity.
Decisions have to be made that affect me and others. I need that spiritual understanding to assist my brothers In making these choices that will direct the church, And help them to promote and help those in God's work.
By the time the day is over my mind is so filled, With thoughts of events and people, and yet the knowledge of His will Is still there and still working to bring things about, So, I pray, "Thy will be done," and in peace, turn the lights out.
"Father, I thank Thee for Thy people who pray for me. I thank Thee for the Holy Spirit guiding me. I thank Thee for Thy Word to give instructions to me. I pray that this day I will, in the activities before me, glorify and honor Thee. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen."
