Pray Without Ceasing 9/29/21

Good morning! I just had to share this Manna with you. It was eye opening for me. Thank You Holy Spirit. Tony doing some improvement in some ways. Every day I see tiny miracle in Tony. Thank you for your prayers. Dot

             1 Thess. 5:17-18 “Pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus in you.”

            Paul closed his first letter to the Christians at Thessalonica, he stirred them with Scriptures of encouragements from verses 12-22. [I translated into my language.]  

          “Now we encourage you.  Urge you to take notice those who work hard among you and encourage you.  Think very highly in love for their work.  Be at peace with others.  Warn those who are rude and not show respect to others.   Comfort the shy.  Support the weak.  Be patient with all.  Make sure no one has revenge spirit. Seek what is good.  Rejoice always.  Don’t give up praying. Always give thanks.  Don’t stop Holy Spirit’s helping you.  Don’t look down at prophecies.  Test all things.  Hold on what is good.  Stay away from appearance of evil.”

            Paul prayed from verse 23, “Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify (cleanse) you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”     

            From Paul’s word, I was very impressed that Paul has given the Christians the word of encouragement on how to build yourselves through Jesus’ teaching.  

 May the Lord bless you!

PS. This came from Bible Study. God’s Word is actually our Presence of God. It is based on John 1:1 that “The Word was God” meaning it is Jesus. Oh, it is Jesus!
