Ever Wanted to Know God’s Will for Your Life? Here’s How! | Andrew Farley

The book of Colossians is filled with transformative truths! Join me as we explore powerful and encouraging themes from Chapter 1 in the first part of our “Complete in Christ” series.

We reflect on the secure hope and inheritance we have in Heaven, fully protected by God. We also delve into a more Jesus-centered view of God’s will and the inspiring result of knowing it. And we address the myth of needing to “put God first,” uncovering the freeing reality that everything is spiritual and Christ is our life in all things.

I invite you to check out this message to deepen your understanding of your completeness in Christ!

Discussion Questions for Colossians 1:1-20:

1. Read verse 5. What does it mean to you that your hope is laid up in Heaven, fully protected by God? What does it mean for your salvation? Your inheritance?

2. Read verse 6. React to this statement: The message of God’s grace is constantly bearing fruit all over the world.

3. Read verses 9-10. How does this passage inspire a more Jesus-centered view of “knowing God’s will”? What is God’s will? What is the result of knowing it?

4. Read verse 12. React to this statement: The Father has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints.

5. Read verse 13. What exactly do you think this verse is describing? So, what happened to you? And when?

6. Read verse 14. React to this statement: You already have both redemption and forgiveness in Christ. You don’t need to ask God daily for either one!

7. Read verses 16-17. What does it mean to you that Jesus Christ is your Creator? What does this say about His knowledge of you?

8. Read verse 18. React to this statement: Jesus already has first place in the church and in you. He is your life!
