Read: 2 Thessalonians 2:13-17 SOAP: 2 Thessalonians 2:13 Paul gives thanks for the salvation of the believers in Thessalonica as they responded to the Truth and the work of the Holy Spirit. He encourages them to “stand firm” on the Word of God, and he prays for them to be established in every good work and word. Paul’s desire is for God to give these believers comfort during their time of affliction and to fill them with hope through His grace. Paul is teaching us how to intercede for each other. This week, let’s purpose to pray for one another to “stand firm” in the Truth. May He establish our hearts in every good work and word. Let’s lean into His grace and grab on to His unending hope. Father, plant our feet firmly on Your Word today. Establish Your work and Word in our hearts. Amen #morningdevotional #youversion https://www.instagram.com/p/CqAh7hLOmu5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Read: 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 SOAP: 2 Thessalonians 2:10 Paul explains to the believers in Thessalonica that the “lawless one” or anti-Christ will perform signs and wonders that deceive many unbelievers. Stubborn hearts are subject to sin’s strong delusion, and God will not stop a sinner’s free will from choosing a counterfeit Christ. Those who have rejected the true Savior will receive this false messiah and follow him straight to their destruction.  If you have a family member or friend who has not yielded to Christ, the thought of their going to hell is heartbreaking. But, God is patient, and His desire is for no one to perish without Christ. We still have time to witness to our loved ones and pray for their hearts to soften to the truth. If you have never asked Jesus to forgive you of your sins, you can pray today and have total peace with God. Confess you are a sinner and tell Jesus you want to follow Him as your Savior.  Lord, open the eyes of my loved ones to the Truth. Help them to see how Jesus died on the cross to save them from their sins. Give me an opportunity to share the Good News with them in a clear way this week. May Your truth come alive in their hearts. Jesus, forgive me of all my sin. I surrender my all to You as my Savior. Amen. #morningdevotional #youversion https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp-ptElON1A/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Read: 2 Thessalonians 2:5-8 SOAP: 2 Thessalonians 2:7 Paul explains that right now God is restraining the work of the enemy, but after the return of Christ and removal of the church, the “lawless one” will be unrestrained and fully revealed for a season. Thankfully, this season of rebellion will be temporary, and Christ will return again to destroy the anti-Christ once and for all. Our Savior will bring the foe to nothing simply with the breath of His mouth. You can live at peace today because God is totally in control. The enemy is a defeated foe, and Jesus will return to wipe him out soon. Wickedness is on a short leash, but God’s Word is not bound. Let’s pray for God’s Word to reach the hearts of our loved ones this week so that they will turn to Jesus for forgiveness of sins. Lord God, You are all powerful and good. Thank You for Your saving grace. May Your Word come alive in my heart this week and in the lives of my loved ones. Amen. #morningdevotional #youversion https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp7xGJcOQbC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
