Paul shares with the Colossians how he prays for them

 

It is not “Oh, God, by the way, please bless the Colossians.”

It starts off with

 

And so, from the day we heard,

we have not ceased to pray for you,

asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will

in all spiritual wisdom and understanding

Col 1.9

 

Filled with the knowledge of His will, how interesting that Paul starts off with that.

Know His will,

in all spiritual wisdom

Not exactly sure what that entails but it sure sounds like something I want.

 

and understanding.

I wonder if the previous adjective applies here as well, thus meaning,

“In all spiritual wisdom and spiritual understanding”

 

I think that is what the MSV says.

You may have perceived by now that the MSV gently gets created as I move along.

 

And if you know that, you know it probably because you have been filled with all spiritual wisdom and understanding!

 

That is 10 points for you, my friend.
