God Establishes Good Work
Paul commended Thessalonians
for their faithfulness in midst
of persecution and encouraging
them that present suffering
will be repaid with future glory.
Paul also clarified the Day of
the Lord had not yet arrived,
and 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.
Lord, help us to Be Steadfast:
Brethren, concerning the coming
of our Lord Jesus Christ…
we ask you not to be shaken
in mind or troubled (2 Ths 2:1-2).
God chose you for salvation
through the Sanctifying work
of the Spirit and through belief
in the truth… He called you by
(the) gospel, for… obtaining of the
glory of our Lord Jesus (v13-14).
Therefore stand fast and hold the
traditions which you were taught.
Now may our Lord Jesus Himself…
Comfort your hearts & Establish u
in every good word & work (v15-17).
