"Let the Word Richly Dwell in You..."

“Let the Word Richly Dwell in You…”

Blessings folk!

Do not let a spirit of familiarity rob you of the truths of this next verse.

Too often we see a familiar passage and think that we know all there is to glean from it.
Such quenches the Spirit.

Remember, we are to…
  • seek the things above
  • set our minds on the the things above
  • die to self and sin
  • put aside all sin
  • put aside the old self
  • put on the new self
  • put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, forbearance, forgiveness
  • put on love, the perfect bond of unity
  • let the peace of Christ rule in our hearts

This is what we have learned from Colossians 3.

Now…

Col 3:16
Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God.


Let the Word of Christ richly dwell within you.
To let the Word richly dwell we must know the Word.
Input the Word…

  • by reading
  • by listening
  • by watching
We have so many ways to hear/see/learn/know the Word.
We will be held accountable.

Note again, it says “let”.
Christ desires for His Word to dwell within us.
The Spirit is given to true Believers.
He will guide us in the Word of the Lord…if we “let”.

Hinder not the Spirit.
Let the Word richly dwell in you.
…to be continued…
