Preparing for the Day of the Lord
(Prayer Walk thro 2 Thess 1-3)
Backgrounder: Paul begins his
second letter to the Thessalonians
by commending them for their
faithfulness in the midst of
persecution and by encouraging
them that present suffering
will be repaid with future glory.
But Paul must also deal with a
misunderstanding concerning
the coming Day of the Lord.
Despite reports to the contrary,
that day had not yet arrived, and
Paul recounts the events which
must take place first. Labouring
for the gospel, rather than lazy
resignation, can be the only
proper response to such truth.
Dear Lord, we are inspired by
the Thessalonian church for
their faithfulness in the midst
of persecution and suffering.
Help us be watchful, persevere and
never be tired of working for Christ.
Help us Be Effective to our Calling.
Help us Mature In Holiness and
Help us Pray For Seekers. Amen.
