Colossians 4:2-3
Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message …

Colossians 4:5-6 Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.

Colossian 4:17 Tell Archippus: “See to it that you complete the work you have received in the Lord.”

Prayer:

Jesus, You have called me to a work that is impossible to complete apart from Your power and grace. 

Father, Thank You for the wisdom and the will that are mine in Christ. Help me to gain more clarity about who You have made me be and what You have made me to do, and may I do Your will with grace and devotion.

Jesus, thank you for these faithful brothers and sisters who are fellow workers in Your kingdom. We need each other for encouragement, wisdom, and strength. Draw our hearts together as You did Paul, Onesimus, Aristarchus, and Epaphras.

And finally, I pray that You would enable us to perform each task of our jobs filled with courage, conviction and grace.

Amen.
