(Lesson 4908) (07-09-25) Colossians 4:1-6
“Masters, give unto your servants that which is just and equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven. Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving; Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds: That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak. Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time. Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.”
In today’s quote, Paul instructed masters (bosses) to treat their servants (employees fairly, remembering they too have a Master in heaven to whom they must eventually answer. He urged us all to continue in prayer, be watchful and thankful, and to pray for open doors and new ways to share the gospel. He also advised us to act wisely around nonbelievers and to let our speech be gracious and seasoned with the salt of God’s truth. ~
