Today’s Thought “Re-Inventing?” G. Ward Colossians 1 9 For this reason we also, since the day we heard about it, have not ceased praying for you and asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. The Truth of gospel presented, then accepted, becomes absolute surrender to new ownership – the Lord Jesus. It comes upon an examination of a super limited sense in direction. Moreover, it involves more than the uncertainty my own life has presented. Furthermore, it asks, how long do I have and can I do anything to preserve it? We’ll soon realize that prior to the believer’s confession, one is owned by uncertainty. The commendation unto believers at Colossae didn’t involve their positioning themselves with the life Holy God provided. Our times clearly violate what it means to be in Christ through human effort. The premise in spiritual prudence remains God control, not infused posture from you and me. Ultimately it affirms the cliché (particularly when there’s failure to endeavor the highest instruction – daily) that says, “a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.”
