Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. Colossians 4:2-3
Kent Hughes writes about Colossians 4:2, "At the very heart of our communication must be full devotion to prayer. The idea here is persistence in prayer — continual prayer. Elsewhere the Lord himself encouraged this by telling the story of a widow who got her way with a godless, uncaring judge because she nagged him. It was "a parable," Luke says, "to show them that they should always pray and not give up" (Luke 18:1). Such continual prayer was the abiding experience of the Apostolic Church (Acts 1:14; 2:42). The apostles were constantly encouraging this, as did Paul when he challenged the Thessalonians to "pray continually" (1 Thessalonians 5:17) —full, continual communication with God."
Join me in reading Colossians 4 and be encouraged!
