TOPIC: PURSUING GOD'S PLAN
COLOSSIANS 2:1-5 (NIV)
1:I want you to know how much I am struggling for you and for those at Laodicea, and for all who have not met me personally.
2:My purpose is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ,
3:in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
4:I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments.
5:For though I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit and delight to see how orderly you are and how firm your faith in Christ is.
PURSUING GOD'S PLAN
Today, many people including Christians, are pursuing one goal or the other. Some in their Pursuit are pursuing mundane things, and some have no aim or goal that they desire to pursue.
But this was not the life of Paul. Apostle Paul had a heart to pursue God's plan, to achieve a desired goal in the life of the church at Laodicea.
As Christians, part of our Pursuit in life should to make sure we encourage others, not to discourage people, to help people and unite the church not to be a source of disunity in the church and homes and also to help people to have an understanding of the person of Jesus, who is the possession of wisdom and knowledge.
QUESTION:
What is your pursuit in life? Are you making an effort to encourage, unite or help others to know Jesus Christ?
PRAYER:
Lord, help me and give me grace to pursue things that are of eternal value, like encouraging, uniting and helping people to have the knowledge of Jesus Christ, in Jesus' name. Amen.
