FRIEND DID YOU KNOW

Scripture: Colossians 4:12 “Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always laboring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.”

    Epaphras was a servant of Christ. He spent his days laboring fervently in prayer for these other Colossian believers. What was he praying for? That they might stand perfect and complete in all the will of God. What a prayer that must have been! Here is a man who is one of these believers, praying for them to stand in the perfect will of God for their lives. He was not praying for just a partial stand on part of God’s will, but a perfect stand on all of the will of God.
    We must stand perfect and complete in all the will of God. God has a plan for our lives and when we learn what it is, it will help us to live life to the fullest. Not knowing the will of God will cause us to miss out on so many blessings that He has for us as His children. Therefore, we must strive to find His precious will for our lives. Once we know it, we must yield ourselves to it.
    Many years ago, when I was praying for the Lord to reveal His will for my life, He showed me in His Word exactly what He wanted me to do! My first thought was to yield completely to His will. I never had a desire to run away from what He wanted me to do, but rather I ran to it. I didn’t understand it all completely, but as I yielded myself to it, I learned more and more about how to do what He wanted me to do. Why don’t you get in earnest about finding it and then, once you do, get in that perfect will of God?
