Philippians - Living in the Word

DAY 19 OF 30

Key Verse:

Colossians 4:6

Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.

Reflection:

In his final remarks to the church in Colossae, Paul is looking toward the greater picture: the message of the gospel being spread. He highlights the importance of prayer, as we can't effectively reach others without our Helper. As believers, we also must be aware of our speech; approaching others with grace and the love of Jesus is often our best witness for Him. Our time on Earth is limited, so it's vital to be very intentional with how we interact with others.

Response:

There are multiple ways we can use our speech to curse (gossip, anger, unwholesome language, etc.). In which area does the enemy tempt you the most?

How can you combat this, to instead make your speech "seasoned with salt"?

Think of someone you know who doesn't have a relationship with the Lord. Take a moment to devote yourself to prayer on their behalf. How can you use your words as a witness the next time you see them?
