Good morning with a word for the day-
Romans 11:33, “Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God!”
Can man even grasp a small portion of God? When we just ponder the name of God, isn't He already past our comprehension? He, who not only created all things but knows all things? He, who named all the stars and holds them in place? The One who has no beginning and will have no end?
Paul said moving toward understanding (reading and studying God's word) the mysteries of God was rich with wisdom and knowledge. In Colossians 2, Paul teaches about walking with Christ Jesus after receiving Him. It gives encouragement, warning, and instruction. It’s a loving letter inspired by the very depth of God. In Paul’s absence, he encourages those he cannot be with to be knitted together in love. “And attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ,” Colossians 2:2.
When I am in Christ Jesus I am given wisdom and knowledge from God. To be in Christ Jesus is to have all the riches of God. The depth of God is Christ and Him crucified.
