What Everyone Wants To Know.

-Meditation-
Colossians 1:9


--TheSecretPlace--

To continue to look at this verse I just want to focus on this prayer that Paul and timothy never ceased to pray.

"And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding"

A few things blow me away just by reading this verse.

One thing is that to know God's will is one thing that almost every single person wants to know, and you could probably go up to an unbeliever, and if you told them that you knew God's will for their lives they would want to know. The knowledge of God, and of God's will is a very valuable thing, and Paul and Timothy devoted themselves to praying this without ceasing they say, and to pray this prayer without ceasing is simply amazing, because their hearts desire was to be in, live in, and know the will of God-meaning that they would rather have His will than their own, and it is also amazing because to pray this prayer without ceasing is to devote yourself, and your prayers, and pretty much all you do to (being filled with) the knowledge of God.
What would it look like for even a small company of people to go after the knowledge of God with an unceasing cry in their hearts to know God.
To know God is our greatest calling, and it is our destiny to know Christ Jesus just as we are fully known by Him(1 Cor. 13:12), and even the journey to knowing Him, and searching after Him makes us more aware of what He is doing, and it really ignites a fire within our hearts to love Him, and know Him-Jesus-just as He is. 

When we come to know Him more we really love Him more, and our fleshly desires, and sinful desires die more and more because the closer to the PURE ONE you get the more like HIM(pure) you become.

We desperately need to be filled with the knowledge of God's will, this is one of those prayers that you want to be praying continually, and we know it is a good true thing to pray, because it is indeed IN SCRIPTURE.

Paul, and Timothy's reason to pray was to be filled with the knowledge of God, and knew that they grew closer to Him with every prayer they prayed. God hears all of our prayers, and He is a God to act on behalf of our prayers, no matter if we see the results of our prayers, or not. He is in control of what we know, and what we do not know in the heavenlies.

Please let me know your thoughts on this verse, and share with me, or with someone about how the LORD is revealing Himself to you, or get someone to pray for you to be able to receive all that God has for you. 

Remember that everyone wants to know Gods will, and the LORD is making it available for You to know His will, and really over all His Word reveals to us that it is His will that ULTIMATELY we would know and love Him- And be loved by Him. Thankfully we are fully capable of walking in the will of God for our lives. My prayer for you is that even through the hard times, that you would have strength to persevere, and to press on to know Christ even when He seems so far away. Know that the Holy Spirit dwells in those who believe in Jesus, and those who have faith in Him, and those who repent of their sins. What a divine gift!



Be so BLESSED!

---Intercession---

Jesus, You are so wonderful, and wonderful does not even begin to describe how wonderful you are! You are the One I live for, and I ask that You would just fill Your people with the knowledge of Your will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding in the knowledge of you, and I pray that you would enlighten the eyes of our hearts. We love You! YOU ARE WORTHY OF ALL OF OUR PRAISE!
Thank You Lord Jesus. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

Bless the LORD.
