Heavenly Father, how I praise that thank You that there is no shadow of turning with You and that You are no respecter of persons - but that each one of Your children is precious in Your sight. No matter what my circumstances are, I pray that I would follow Christ's example of goodness and grace, kindness and integrity. I pray that I would be fair and honourable in all my dealings and that by Your grace, my life would reflect the beautiful character of Christ, in Whose name I pray, AMEN.

Praying through Colossians 4:15

Heavenly Father, thank You for the inspired Scriptures and the many truths that are contained within its sacred pages. Thank You for men like Paul whom You used to pen the Scriptures and for the truth of the glorious gospel of grace contained within its pages. Thank You for the example of Paul who recognised his responsibility toward his brothers in Christ, and for Nymphas, the believer in Laodicea whose home became the place where Christians met to worship You. Help me to be diligent to meet together with other believers and to study Your Word in spirit and in truth, and I pray that You would use me in whatever way You choose, for Your praise and glory. In Jesus' name, AMEN.

“Salute the brethren which are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is in his house.”
(Colossians 4:15)

Praying through Colossians 4:16

Heavenly Father, thank You for the wonderful truths that are set out in the book of Colossians and in all the Holy Scriptures, which guide us into truth, sharpen our resolve to live as Christ lived, and teach us the way we should behave. May I learn to love Your Word, study the Scriptures daily, and show myself approved unto God so that I live as a shining light in this darkened world and do not fall into spiritual complacency. Thank You that the Word of Truth is freely available in my country, knowing that the days are becoming darker. Protect those who have limited access to Scripture, because of oppressive governments and ungodly laws. May we all grow in grace as we watch for the any-day return of the Lord Jesus for His Church. I ask this in His precious name, AMEN. 

“And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the epistle from Laodicea.”
(Colossians 4:16)
