Hold fast to Jesus; ruler over creation and victor over sin. That’s the purpose of this early hymn that Paul writes or quotes for the Colossian church. He wants to remind them of Jesus’ authority over creation and over the wages of sin and death. Therefore, they should hold fast to Jesus no matter the storm and no matter the distracting blessings.

The firstborn over all, Before the world began, By You the stars were spoken, and our lives held in Your hands. Chorus: We look to You, the image of the Father Holding all things together The Word forever We look to You, the image of compassion And it comes home again In You all things stay You are the dawn of the never ending day When the night grows long, And hope feels out of reach, You're holding all creation— And You're still holding me. You reconcile the broken, Shed Your blood to made us new, Your Peace rising from the shadows, A kingdom born of You.
Even the strongest believers and healthiest churches still need help from heaven. This message reminds us that God's people need spiritual wisdom, holy living, deeper knowledge of God, and supernatural strength — not just to survive hard situations and hard people, but to walk through them with joy. Healthy believers still need help, and that help has a name: Jesus.

Christ Our Peace - Colossians 1:13-23, Rev. Eugene Kim by CGS Media
Message Take Aways:1. Paul reminds of the preeminence of Jesus Christ who is greater than all things being God the Son, Lord of lords, and King of kings—“Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth” Philippians 2:9-102. Paul recalls the selfless and willing sacrifice of Jesus Christ which generates peace between God and man—“For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time” 1 Timothy 2:5-63. Paul recognized his mission as preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all men, a charge likewise entrusted to every believer—“How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?” Romans 10:14
Blake White continues the Christus Victor series on Colossians 1:13-14
"For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ, and through him God reconciled everything to himself. He made peace with everything in heaven and on earth by means of Christ’s blood on the cross." —Colossians 1:19–20 One sobering way to prepare for Christmas is to remember that our spiritual enemy doesn’t take the holidays off. The apostle Peter wrote, “Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:8 NLT). Christmas is a season of giving, a season of hope, and a season of joy. But by its very nature, it’s also a season of spiritual battle—and has been ever since the need for Christ’s coming first arose. The war has been won. Jesus defeated sin and death once and for all. He paid the sacrifice for our sin once and for all. Red is the color of Christmas—not because Santa suits are red or because we wrap packages in red. Red is the color of Christmas because of the blood of Jesus Christ that was shed. By the shedding of His blood, He made eternal life possible for everyone who believes in Him. Though the devil has been defeated, he refuses to give up the battle. We see that battle being played out in our culture today. It is the God of the Bible, the true and living God, versus all contenders. This battle goes back to the first Messianic verse in Scripture when, after the serpent tempted Adam and Eve to sin, God said to him, “And I will cause hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will strike your head, and you will strike his heel” (Genesis 3:15 NLT). The cradle of Christ was pointing to the cross. The Incarnation was necessary for atonement. The purpose behind the birth of Jesus was the death of Jesus. This is New Testament Christianity. It’s the division between light and darkness, between righteousness and unrighteousness, between good and evil, and between right and wrong. Here’s something else to ponder this Christmas season: It’s through conflict that we find real peace. Those who challenge us as believers do so for reasons that have little to do with us. Christ’s arrival in the world changed everything. His light illuminated the darkness. But some people prefer the dark. They don’t want their sins to be known. So, when they see people who live in the light, it creates conflict within them—conflict that spills out in their reaction to us. But we can trust that through this conflict, ultimate unity will come. Our responsibility is to hold our ground and pray. Pray that these people will think about their souls, consider the claims of Christ, and then ultimately turn their lives over to the Lord. What a Christmas gift that would be. — The audio production of the podcast "Greg Laurie: Daily Devotions" utilizes Generative AI technology.
