May 18, 2025: Take Them and Learn to Run - Colossians 4.0

Sunday, Pastor Nicole stirred us up to run our race well in the Unity of Brotherly Love, and Confidence in the Mystery of God's plan from Colossians chapter 2.

She posed two questions to contemplate...

1. What does that look like for my daily life?

2. What belief systems are warring against us from doing that?

We all have beliefs that war against us that need to be revealed for us to run our race in more freedom. Even just opening our phones or browsing the internet, we get inundated with well-crafted arguments that are ready to deceive us if we don't have discernment.

We can't just memorize content and "do better" we need discernment.

We are not to let anyone take us captive again through humanism or lies of the enemy and we can KNOW God's voice and plan by having our roots growing down into God and building our lives on Him. The more we become familiar with His Word, the more we recognize His voice.

We all know that there are pieces of our lives that don't reflect the truth. But we are complete in Him through our union with Jesus. Nicole exhorted us that Christ is the source of all divine power and fullness and that as Christians we are complete and can find everything we need for victorious Christian life in our union with Him!
