Read: Colossians 1:18-end(NKJV)
18 And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence.
19 For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell,
20 and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross.
21 And you, who once were alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled
22 in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and blameless, and above reproach in His sight–
23 if indeed you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister.
24 I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ, for the sake of His body, which is the church,
25 of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God,
26 the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints.
27 To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
28 Him we preach, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus.
29 To this end I also labor, striving according to His working which works in me mightily.
ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 2ND MARCH 2025.
Today marks Quinquagesima Sunday, which that Lent we are approximately 50 days to Easter and that Lent officially begins this week. According to the church calendar, today begins a 3-day period of Shrovetide which ends on Shrove Tuesday, it is a time when people consume their store foods in preparation for Lent. Also today, some people confess their sins in order to obtain forgiveness in preparation for Lent. In our text today, St. Paul lays emphasis on the supremacy of Christ. Christians have no message to the world without Christ. God is pleased to have ALL his fullness-his divine perfection, powers and attributes – to dwell in Christ, the head of the Church (vv. 18-19). This is why he says that God chose to reveal to the gentiles the mystery of his glorious riches; Christ in us, the hope of glory. This truth became Paul’s motivation for proclaiming Christ-teaching everyone, with all wisdom, to present everyone perfect in Christ (vv. 26-29).
Today’s study teaches us that the focus of all our church programmes should be Christ. Also, we should engage all platforms for the sharing of the good news about Christ. Furthermore, the Church should be intentional about sound teaching of God’s word and also invest seriously in evangelism (vv. 28-29). As we prepare for another Lenten season, please note that the highest form of spirituality that you can have is to have a deep, flourishing and an unbroken relationship with God. Ensure you create a quality time to know more about Christ through a Spirit inspired meditation on God’s word
PRAYER:
Pray that our churches will return to the original pattern of preaching Christ.
