Colossians 2:-12
2 For I want you to know what a great conflict I have
for you and those in Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face
in the flesh, 2 that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit
together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of
understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and
of Christ, 3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and
knowledge.
4 Now this I say lest anyone should deceive
you with persuasive words. 5 For though I am absent in the
flesh, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your good order and
the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.
6 As you therefore have received Christ
Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, 7 rooted and built up in Him
and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with
thanksgiving.
8 Beware lest anyone cheat you through
philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to
the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. 9 For
in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; 10 and
you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.
11 In Him you were also circumcised with the
circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the sins of the
flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, 12 buried with Him in
baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through faith in the
working of God, who raised Him from the dead.
To understand the gospel we must sleep the word, breathe the
word, walk the word, understanding when our Lord said if they denied me and
were against me how much more will they do to you. The fight is to bring love, truth and justice
into our lives and God’s kingdom this world to receive these wealth and riches
He has ordained for us. We must walk the walk and talk the talk to gain the
knowledge and wisdom to outsmart Satan’s attacks from our spiritually untrained
brothers and sisters. So we can open up this mystery into our lives that waits
for us daily becoming firm in its truth no longer letting the world deem our
happiness nor are sorrows. Faith that this word works yesterday today and
forever and God is no respecter of man means we can lock into the blessing and
believe these blessings for ourselves and for all. Get out of your thinking
taking on the mind of Christ bind the bible to your hands and put it before your
eyes daily with selfless prayers to bring this mystery to life.
May God bless you and keep you.
