‏ Colossians 4:2

Apostolic Exhortations

Paul now gives practical advice about prayer. He encourages Christians to pray regularly and with thankful hearts. This instruction is important for everyone, including masters and those in positions of responsibility. Prayer should be a constant part of the Christian life, and Paul asks for prayer for himself and other leaders, so they can continue to share the good news of Jesus boldly and clearly.

v. 2: Paul says, Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving (Colossians 4:2 a). Christians should be faithful in prayer, making it a regular habit. They should stay alert, choosing good times for prayer and keeping their hearts focused. Every prayer should also include thanksgiving, remembering to thank God for His blessings.
