Faith In The Valley

In Colossians 1, starting at verse 9, Paul begins to pray. He is praying for the church in Colossae and he is praying for us. What does he pray? Paul has some specific requests. Among them is his desire for us to be filled with the knowledge of God’s will. And later, Paul prays that we would increase in the knowledge of God. This request of knowing God should come as no surprise. God created all humans to have a relationship with Him. Any relationship is based on knowing something about the other. God knows all about us. He wants us to know about Him We begin a series today titled Getting to Know God. This study will start at the beginning and pursue a knowledge of God from creation to Christ. We will follow what preachers of old called the Scarlet thread or road through the Bible. But before we step on that scarlet road, we need to learn a thing or two about God. Today we will learn that God is holy and He makes His children holy too. Turn to Isaiah 45:22 “Turn to me and be saved,     all the ends of the ear
