PATIENCE AND ENDURANCE WITH JOY ---ASK GOD FOR THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT INSIDE OF YOU SO YOU CAN BEAR THESE FRUITS ---AND THANK GOD FOR IT! DONT JUST SIT AND TWEEDLE YOUR THUMB AND FRET AND WORRY? PRAY! Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary[Colossians 1:11] 11. Greek, Being made mighty with (literally, in) all might. according to his glorious power—rather, according to the power (the characteristic of His glory, here appropriate to Pauls argument, Eph 1:19; 6:10; as its exuberant riches, in Eph 3:16) of His glory. His power is inseparable from His glory (Ro 6:4). unto all patience—so as to attain to all patient endurance; persevering, enduring continuance in the faith, in spite of trials of persecutors, and seductions of false teachers. long-suffering—towards those whom one could repel. Patience, or endurance, is exercised in respect to those whom one cannot repel [Chrysostom]. with joyfulness—joyful endurance (Ac 16:25; Ro 5:3, 11).
