SPIRITUAL INSIGHT
Colossians 1:9
"For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding...."
The first thing Paul prayed for the believers at Colosse was for spiritual insight. As humans, we are prone to view our world through the lens of the "wisdom of this age" (I Cor. 2:6). "The natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God ... they are spiritually discerned" (I Cor. 2:14), and spiritual understanding only comes by revelation from God (I Cor. 2:10). To really understand our world and His will, we need to see through God's eyes. This applies to every area of life, including the political arena. When we abandon God, as much of America has, we are left with only worldly wisdom. No wonder we are in such a sorry state.
TODAY'S THOUGHT: To really understand what is happening in our world, we need a revelation of God's will.
Have a day of spiritual insight. Love you.
