From: GOD
THE FATHER, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST HIS SON and Ministered through the HOLY
SPIRIT OF GOD, The Helper, that He may be with you forever. [John 14:16]
Subject: MY WORD; John 1:1 (NKJV) 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was
with God, and the Word was God. John 1:14 (NKJV) 14 And the Word
became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the
only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
Colossians 4:2–6 (The Living Bible) 2 Don’t be weary in prayer; keep at it; watch
for God’s answers, and remember to be thankful when they come. 3
Don’t forget to pray for us too, that God will give us many chances to preach
the Good News of Christ for which I am here in jail. 4 Pray that I
will be bold enough to tell it freely and fully and make it plain, as, of
course, I should. 5 Make the
most of your chances to tell others the Good News. Be wise in all your
contacts with them. 6 Let your conversation be gracious as well as
sensible, for then you will have the right answer for everyone.
Colossians 4:2–6 (CJB) 2 Keep persisting in prayer, staying alert in it and
being thankful. 3 Include prayer for us, too, that God may open a
door for us to proclaim the message about the secret of the Messiah—for that is
why I am in prison. 4 And pray that I may speak, as I should, in a
way that makes the message clear. 5 Behave wisely toward outsiders,
making full use of every opportunity—6 let your conversation always be gracious and interesting, so that you
will know how to respond to any particular individual.
Colossians 4:2–6 (NIV) 2 Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. 3
And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may
proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. 4 Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I
should. 5 Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the
most of every opportunity. 6 Let your conversation be always full of
grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.
Colossians 4:2–6 (NASB95) 2 Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with an attitude of
thanksgiving; 3 praying at the same time for us as well, that God will
open up to us a door for the word, so that we may speak forth the mystery of
Christ, for which I have also been imprisoned; 4 that I may make
it clear in the way I ought to speak. 5 Conduct yourselves with
wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the opportunity. 6 Let
your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that
you will know how you should respond to each person.
Ephesians 5:8–17 (The Living Bible) 8 For though once your heart was full of darkness, now it is full of
light from the Lord, and your behavior should show it! 9 Because
of this light within you, you should do only what is good and right and true. 10
Learn as you go along what pleases the Lord. 11 Take no part in the
worthless pleasures of evil and darkness, but instead, rebuke and expose them. 12
It would be shameful even to mention here those pleasures of darkness that the
ungodly do. 13 But when you expose them, the light shines in upon
their sin and shows it up, and when they see how wrong they really are, some of
them may even become children of light! 14 That is why God says in
the Scriptures, “Awake, O sleeper, and rise up from the dead; and Christ shall
give you light.” 15 So be
careful how you act; these are difficult days. Don’t be fools; be wise: make
the most of every opportunity you have for doing good. 17 Don’t
act thoughtlessly, but try to find out and do whatever the Lord wants you to.
Mark 4:9–12 (AMP) 9 And He said, He who has ears to hear, let him be hearing [and let him
consider, and comprehend]. 10 And as soon as He was alone, those
who were around Him, with the Twelve [apostles], began to ask Him about the
parables. 11 And He said to them, To you has been entrusted the mystery of the kingdom of God [that is,
the secret counsels of God which are hidden from the ungodly]; but for those
outside [of our circle] everything becomes a parable, 12 In
order that they may [indeed] look and look but not see and
perceive, and may hear and hear but not grasp and comprehend,
lest haply they should turn again, and it [their willful rejection of the
truth] should be forgiven them.
Mark 4:9–12 (The Living Bible) 9 If you have ears, listen!” 10
Afterwards, when he was alone with the Twelve and with his other disciples,
they asked him, “What does your story mean?” 11 He replied, “You are permitted to know some truths about the
Kingdom of God that are hidden to those outside the Kingdom: ‘Though they see
and hear, they will not understand or turn to God, or be forgiven for their
sins.’
Mark 4:9–12 (AMP) 9 And He said, He who has ears to hear, let him be hearing [and let him

[Please Note: Always Read the
Word of God in Context, reading the entire chapter or book, asking the Holy
Spirit of the Living God to give you the interpretation. 2 Peter 1:16–21 (Williams) 16 For it was not mere stories of fancy
that we followed when we told you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He
received such honor and glory from God the Father, when from the majestic glory
there was borne to Him a voice like this, “This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom
I take delight.” 18 we heard this voice ourselves borne from heaven
while we were with Him on that sacred mountain. 19 So we have the
message of the prophets more certainly guaranteed. Please pay attention to this message as to a
lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning
star rises in your hearts; 20 because you recognize this truth above
all else, that no prophecy in Scripture
is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, 21 for no prophecy has
ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by the Holy Spirit
spoke from God.]
