Colossians 1:28-29

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Colossians 1:28-29. Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.

If God’s people strive mightily, it is because God works mightily in them. Nothing can come out of a man but what God puts into him. We work to will and to do when he works in us according to his good pleasure. Oh, for more of the agonizing of the Spirit within us, that there might be more of agonizing in our spirits for the glory of God!
