Prayer Thot for the Day on 1Ths5

God Will Sanctify You

Paul has many pleasant memories
of the days he spent with the infant
Thessalonian church. Their Faith,
hope, love and perseverance
in the face of persecution are
exemplary and Paul’s labours
as a spiritual parent to the fledging
church have been richly rewarded.
He encourages the Thessalonians
to excel in their Faith, increase in
their love, and rejoice always even
as God Promises to Sanctify them.

Lord, we Purpose to Do Your Will:
Rejoice always, pray without
ceasing, in everything give thanks;
for this is the will of God in Christ
Jesus for you (1 Thess 5:16-18).
Now may the God of peace
Himself Sanctify you completely;
and may your whole spirit, soul
and body be preserved blameless
at the coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ. He who calls you is faithful,
who also will do it (v23-24). Amen.

Lord, it is always Your Will for me
to be joyful and pray often & give
thanks to You in all circumstances.
Help me to remember to do Your
Will in this regard, even when
I don’t see answers to my prayers
as I would like it to be. No matter
what is happening in my life,
I know You are greater than
anything I am facing. Amen.

Lord, help me to understand that
You are truly causing all things
to work together for my good.
Help me to be obedient to what
Your Word asks of me. I cannot
do this on my own strength. But
in your Spirit’s power, I can do
what you tell me to do. May you
be my joy and enable me to be
aware of your presence with me
continually. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Lord God of peace, do your work
of sanctification within me. I want
to honour You with my life. I want
to resist sin each day. But at the
same time, I confess something
within me is often attracted by evil.
Keep me blameless. Give me
a love for you and a zeal for
Your glory that far surpasses
any impure passion. Amen.
