    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Nov 7, 2011
    based on 28 ratings
     | 48,839 views

    Paul’s prayer burst into an overflow of thankfulness & praise. This thankfulness was because their lives demonstrated that God was at work in them and in the church. The Gospel was bearing fruit in & through their lives.

    COLOSSIANS 1: 3-8 AN OUTPOURING OF THANKFULNESS [1 Peter 1:3-8] Paul gave continual thanks to God in his prayers. So it was natural that when Paul prayed for the church at Colossae, the prayer burst into an overflow of thankfulness and praise. This thankfulness was because their lives ...read more

    Sometimes we wonder how to pray for missionaries and other leaders we have never met. Paul had never met the Colossians, but he faithfully prayed for them. His prayers teach us how to pray for others, whether we know them or not.

    COLOSSIANS 1: 9-12 PRAYING FOR OTHERS [Ezekiel 22:30] Every Christian can minister directly to the spiritual well-being of other believers without seeing or speaking to them. We can play a role in their spiritual growth, and even secure God's blessings for them. Intercessory pray accomplishes ...read more

    There are two keys to healthy spiritual life according to Paul's prayer: being filled with the knowledge of God's will and then walking in that knowledge.

    Living healthy – what does it mean? Keeping the weight off, not smoking, not drinking, eating lots of fruit and vegetables, exercising every day, plenty of rest, plenty of fluids. All these are good ways to keep our God-given body in good condition. But how do you keep your spiritual health ...read more

    Give Thankfulness With A Grateful Heart; Why?

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Jan 24, 2014
     | 5,207 views

    The apostle Paul always gives thanks in his prayers and so thanksgiving needs to be a major part of our prayers. Jesus did it, and so did Paul, and look at their ministries, and the word “thanks” used here comes from the Greek word “Eucharist”.

    Deuteronomy 30:9-14 Psalm 25:1-9 Colossians 1:1-14 Luke 10:25-37 Summary: The apostle Paul always gives thanks in his prayers and so thanksgiving needs to be a major part of our prayers. Jesus did it, and so did Paul, and look at their ministries, and the word “thanks” used here ...read more
