"Praying to Change Lives"
Colossians
1:9-14 -9For this reason, since the
day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to
fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and
understanding. 10And we pray this in order that you may live a life
worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good
work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11being strengthened with all
power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and
patience, and joyfully 12giving thanks to the Father, who has
qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light.
13For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us
into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14in whom we have redemption,
the forgiveness of sins.
