Colossians 1:9

Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial
KJV ORIGINAL
For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

That's exactly why we haven't stopped praying for you since we first heard about your faith. We're constantly asking God to fill you up with understanding of what he actually wants for your life — not just head knowledge, but the kind of wisdom that comes from really knowing him.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Prayer isn't just asking for stuff — it's asking God to help people truly understand his heart for their lives.
