Day 277 Bible Readings – Colossians 1: 16 (ESV)

Jeremiah 7: 30-34, Jeremiah 8, Jeremiah 9: 1-16, Colossians 1: 1-23, Psalm 147: 12-20

Colossians 1: 16 (ESV)

“For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him.”

Verse 16 from Colossians 1 in Paul’s letter to the Church at Colossae shows Paul talking about Jesus Christ and how he is part of the Trinity, which include God and the Holy Spirit. Because Christ is part of the Trinity, Paul tells us that all things in heaven and earth by God and Jesus Christ. God and Jesus Christ created everything visible and invisible, include thrones and dominions or rulers and authorities.

If we believe that God and Christ created all things, we must be grateful for everything in life that comes our way including the good and bad because they are all apart of God’s plan for us. This idea can be hard to grok especially if you are going through a season of bad times, but we need to remember that everything that happens in our life is always bringing closer to God. When we are going through a season of miracles, we give praise to God. And when we are in a season of affliction, we pray to God to send us miracles to answer our prayers. We need to always remember that God always has our best interests at heart, especially in the bad times. We need to always remember that God is faithful to us and will answer our prayers. God and Jesus Christ love us, and will always be with us, now and through eternity.
