Colossians 1:10
v. 10: Paul prays that their knowledge would help them live in a way that pleases the Lord. He wants them to be fruitful in every good work and to grow in their knowledge of God (Colossians 1:10 a). It is not enough to know what is right; Christians must also do good things. Our actions should match our faith. As Jesus said, If you know these things, happy are you if you do them (John 13:17 b), and Paul adds, He who does his will shall know of the doctrine (John 7:17 c).
