1 Thessalonians 5:24 · BSB
Proverbs 11:1–7 · 1 Thessalonians 5 · Jeremiah 22–23
Father, we come to You together today with grateful hearts. Thank You that because Jesus died and rose again, we do not have to grieve like the rest, who are without hope (1 Thessalonians 4:13–14). Some of us are missing people we love who have fallen asleep in Him. Comfort us with Your promise that the Lord Himself will descend from heaven, that the dead in Christ will be the first to rise, and that we will be caught up together with them to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will always be with the Lord (1 Thessalonians 4:16–17).
Lord, the hope of the righteous is joy (Proverbs 10:28). Fill our homes and our church with that joy. When the whirlwind passes, keep us secure in You, for the way of the LORD is a refuge to the upright (Proverbs 10:25, 29).
You have not called us to impurity, but to holiness (1 Thessalonians 4:7). By Your Holy Spirit, help us live in a way that is pleasing to You, and teach us to love one another more and more.
When following You feels lonely or costly, as it did for Jeremiah, may Your word be a fire burning in our hearts, and remind us that You are with us like a fearsome warrior (Jeremiah 20:9, 11). Give our lips wisdom to know what is fitting (Proverbs 10:32), so that we encourage one another with these words (1 Thessalonians 4:18).
We wait with joy for that day. In Jesus’ name.
Amen.
