Filled With God's KNowledge of Who We Are In Christ

“For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, That you might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; Strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness.” Colossians 1:9-11

This prayer is the Divine inspiration of God, it’s what our Father wants for us and it’s what He has provided for us through Christ! Just look at the Words: all, worthy, knowledge, joy, might, strength, wisdom, understanding, and power! These are the things that God has provided completely for us. Every bit as much as the prayer that Jesus prayed in John 17 is the Word of God, so is this prayer of Paul’s! You want to see some real power, go and read the prayers at the beginning of the Epistles. And as you read them watch the power of the Holy Ghost strengthen you as Jesus Authors and Finishes the faith within you to accept and walk in the Truth of them, to actually live and experience them. It’s awesome power!

We are one with all of Jesus’ knowledge, all of His wisdom, and all of His spiritual understanding. Through the power of Jesus’ might we are every bit as pleasing to God as He is! We are one with all of Jesus strength, all of His might, all of His glorious power, all of His patience, and all of His joy. There is nothing that Jesus is, and nothing that He has, that we are not one with, as He is, so are we in this world. We are now members of His body and greater is He that is in us, than he that is in the world! And today is the day that we have all of this, for today is the day of our salvation!
