Colossians 1:10

¹I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called,

²¹make you complete in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

²Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, ³seeing that his divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and virtue,

¹⁶You didn’t choose me, but I chose you and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

²²so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.

¹Finally then, brothers, we beg and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, that you abound more and more.

¹⁶But don’t forget to be doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

⁸“In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.

²²But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith,^23[+] gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

⁷When a man’s ways please the LORD, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
