PRAY FOR US

Passage: 2Thessalonians 3:1~18  

Key verse: 1

1. May the message spread and be honored (1-5)

We are encouraged to pray for the gospel message to spread rapidly and to be honored. The Lord's message brings salvation and eternal life to anyone who believes. We are also to pray for gospel workers to be delivered from evil people who reject the message. Indeed, the Lord is faithful and strengthens and protects his people. May God's name be honored and praised and his kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven!

2. Warn an idle person (6-18)

Our hope in God's kingdom and faith in Jesus' second coming should not be excuses for idleness. Believers should not be idle, disruptive nor busybodies. Believers should not burden others for food. Believers should work for their food and settle down. They should strive to do good in every area of life. The apostles set this example for the Thessalonians. We, too, should follow their good example. We ought to warn idle believers and not associate with them.



Prayer: Lord, help us to be responsible and to share the gospel. Please spread your message and grant that it may be honored by those who hear it.

One Word: Share the gospel; always do good
