Praying from Colossians 2:23 relating to Self-imposed worship, Humility, Indulgence of the flesh.
Dear God, please help me to see through the false appearance of wisdom in self-imposed worship, humility, and severity to the body. Help me to understand that these things are not of any value against the indulgence of the flesh. Please guide me towards true wisdom and self-control, so that I may resist temptation and live a life that is pleasing to you. Amen.
Verse: These things indeed appear like wisdom in self-imposed worship, humility, and severity to the body, but aren’t of any value against the indulgence of the flesh.
Colossians 2:23
This is a Command. The verse is warning against the ineffectiveness of self-imposed practices in overcoming sinful desires. The command is to avoid relying solely on these practices and instead seek true transformation through the power of God.
