Steadfastness And Patience

For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 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; strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience; joyously giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Light.  Colossians 1:9-12 NASB

God, You rescued us through Your Son Jesus Christ!  Amazing grace! You saved us, redeemed us, adopted us, filled us with Holy Spirit and have given us a glorious inheritance. As Your beloved children we ask for wisdom to share the Gospel with those who don’t know You yet. We pray that our friends and family would experience the redemption and forgiveness of sins. Rescue them from the dominion and power of darkness and set them free. May people come to know You, Lord, and Christ’s resurrection power in a powerful way. We pray hope, we pray healing, we pray deliverance, we pray love, we pray rejoicing, we pray salvation, we pray revival, we pray forgiveness in the name of Jesus Christ, amen!
