We have great strategies. We have great methods. But strategies and methods without prayer are powerless.

Colossians 3:16, 4:2 Life in Christ – Part 4 I. Let Jesus' Words Live Among You: Colossians 3:16 “Let the word of Christ dwell richly among you, in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another through psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts.” – Colossians 3:16 CSB II. Devote Yourselves to Prayer: Colossians 4:2 “Devote yourselves to prayer; stay alert in it with thanksgiving.” – Colossians 4:2 CSB What do we learn? 1. Jesus Christ is first, above all, our Savior King, the fullness and the image of God. 2. Jesus Christ has redeemed us, making us right with God, bringing us from spiritual darkness to the light of God's Kingdom. 3. Jesus leads us in a spiritual journey with our local church family. 4. We are actively learning more about the truth of Jesus and rejecting deceptive narratives and their sources. 5. God gives us the voice for speaking the word of Jesus, singing, praying, and sharing gratitude. What should we do? 1. We are called to focus on Jesus and set our minds on God's Kingdom. 2. We respond by actively putting off our old sinful nature, putting on our new identity and the ways of Jesus. 3. We choose to take steps in this journey with our local church family. 4. We share the words of Jesus as most valuable guidance. 5. We sing heartfelt gratitude to God. 6. We persist in prayer with clear eyes and grateful hearts.
In this message, we learn how praying for a deep knowledge of God's will leads to a life that is worthy of the Lord — marked by fruitfulness, endurance, gratitude, and a growing wonder at all God has done to rescue and redeem us through Jesus Christ.
Faith is not a destination! It's a movement that we have been invited to participate in; one where grace is extended and needed to grow. Let's pray....

In Colossians 1:3–14, Paul prays with thanksgiving, showing us that prayer is our first response to what God is doing in others. Prayer not only lifts our needs before the Lord, it stirs thanksgiving within us and strengthens faith, love, and hope. Paul's pattern teaches us to pray for fellow believers: that they would grow in wisdom, walk worthy of the Lord, and wait with patience and joy.

You are called to a mission of prayer for the Church, its workers and those we are trying to reach with the Gospel.
Continue In Prayer, Colossians 4:2-4
Main Idea: Local churches must support missionaries for the sake of gospel advancement. What does missionary support look like? Three characteristics of missionary support 1. We must support missionaries faithfully (vv. 5-6). What does it look like for us to faithfully support our missionaries? a) Financial support b) Prayer (Colossians 4:2-4) c) Short-term Trips d) Stateside ministry 2. We must support missionaries selectively (v. 7). (Acts 5:40-41)(Romans 1:5) How do we support missionaries selectively? 1) Raise up missionaries from within 2) Partner with like-minded missionaries 3) Partner with like-minded mission agencies and networks. 3. We must support missionaries deliberately (v. 8). (Romans 10:14-15) Conclusion 15 And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving, except you only. 16 Even in Thessalonica you sent me help for my needs once and again. 17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that increases to your credit. 18 I have received full payment, and more. I am well supplied, having received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent, a fragrant offering, a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God. (Philippians 4:15-18)

Today's Passage and Prayer: Colossians 1: 9-14 9 For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives,10 so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, 12 and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light. 13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.NOTES & LINKS:21 Days of Prayer & Fasting WebsiteSubscribe to the 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting NewsletterPDF Guide to Prayer & FastingAs Part of the 21 Days, we are committing to 24/7 prayer during this time.

Together we discuss how in continual prayer (connection/focus with Jesus), we can be prepared to make the most of every opportunity with those around us.
Message from Dan Moran on October 13, 2024
The prayers of the Bible are always relevant and we should always be praying them. In this one, we see that the knowledge of God's will is for the purpose of living for God's pleasure. Pleasing God is bearing fruit in good works, enduring by his strength, and giving thanks for his grace. When we pray for this we can be sure the Lord will answer us. When we pursue this, we can be sure he will grant it. Let us pray, and pursue, for the glory of God. Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world. One of the ways that we pursue this mission is by gathering each Sunday for corporate worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. The corporate nature of this gathering is both edifying to the believer and a witness of God's grace to the world. Sermon speaker is Scott Patty unless otherwise noted.

This message is from our Colossians series.As one of the most Christ-centered books in the Bible, Colossians highlights and celebrates the supremacy of Christ. Paul wrote Colossians to combat a strange mix of false teachings threatening the church, and asserts Christ as preeminent over all things, including the demonic powers behind these teachings. In addition, Paul shows the practical response of the believer to Christ's supremacy in all of life, both personal and public.Crosspoint City is one church in multiple locations and we exist to relentlessly pursue those far from God to help them know and follow Jesus.
