Read Colossians 2:9-10

The evil one seeks to lead believers astray. He wants to dampen our enthusiasm. He wants to make our lives unproductive and unfruitful for the gospel. He will use lies, deceits, dread and distractions to sabotage your Christian witness. He will do anything to stop you from sharing Christ with others and even from growing closer to your Lord and Saviour.

In face of this attack, what do we have? What can we be doing. Read vs 9-10 again.

For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority.

In Jesus you have been given His fullness. Jesus is the head over every authority and power. Because you have His fullness, you have His headship, His authority with you as well.

In Christ you have the equipping and the empowering to stand up to the lies and deceits of the world and the evil one.

Prayer:-

m Praise God for the two weeks of mission that we’ve had. Praise God for every single individual that has been involved and supported/partnered in the mission.

m Pray that the teams partnering with the mission will have adequate and blessed rest. Pray that God would reward them for their dedication, their hard work and their faithfulness.

Get Into It!

Discuss the implications of having the fullness of Christ with another mature believer.
