Don’t forget to pray for us, that God will open doors for telling the mystery of Christ... ~ Colossians 4:3 (MSG)
KEY IDEA:
Christ and how he does things is a mystery to much of the world -- be ready to tell about him anyway.PRAYER:
Lord God, thank you for sharing the mystery of Christ with us -- that you would become a man, die a sacrificial death to reconcile us to you, and then rise from the dead. All of that is very mysterious -- even to me. And I admit that I am slow to share what I do not fully understand. Help me to realize that the enigma is an asset to the message and grant me wisdom to share it appropriately. I'm eager to share the mystery of Christ, Amen.CHALLENGING WORD:
- enigma -- deep mystery, hard to understand. The more you examine an enigma the more you realize that it is beyond understanding.
