Preeminence of Christ
9 aFor this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask bthat you may be filled with cthe knowledge of His will din all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
10 athat you may walk worthy of the Lord, bfully pleasing Him, cbeing fruitful in every good work and increasing in the dknowledge of God;
11 astrengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, bfor all patience and longsuffering cwith joy;
12 agiving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of bthe inheritance of the saints in the light.
