Today's Bible Verse
"Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work."

Today's Bible Study
In this verse Paul prays for the Thessalonians, remembering how the Lord loves them and the grace He has shown them. Paul asks the Lord to comfort them and establish them in every good word and work. Today, as Paul did, let's reflect on the love that the Lord has shown us.

Have you ever felt the Lord comfort your heart? When we're wounded by the things of this world, we can take refuge in Jesus. Indeed, no love can compare to the love of Jesus! Our deepest, sweetest relationships give us a glimpse into the Lord's love for us but ultimately pale in comparison. He will meet us right where we are and bring healing to our hearts by reminding us of His tender care for us. If you are struggling with something or feel hurt, remember to go to your Savior, who loves you deeply.

Because He loves us, the Lord will establish us in every good word and work. In other words, He will sanctify us so that we become more and more like Him--which can sometimes be a painful process. I don't always want to be reminded of all of the sins in my life, and repentance is an intentional--and difficult!--act of surrendering my will to the Lord. Yet, He knows that sin destroys our lives, and the pain of leaving sin behind is less than the pain of living in sin.


When we feel convicted about our wrongdoings, instead of becoming despondent we can reflect on the love of God, who loves us enough to help us live in holiness.



Jesus demonstrated His irrefutable love for us when He paid the price for our sin. He was the perfect sacrifice, and He gave Himself up for us. Because of what He did, our sin is gone. We are no longer sinners stuck in unholy patterns, but instead, are saints of a loving and mighty God. He comforts us, establishes our words and works, and loves us more than we will ever understand.
Today's Prayer
Dear Lord, I am so grateful for the love that you have shown me. Thank you for Jesus, who paid the price for all of my sins. Thank you, Lord, for helping me become more like you as I am sanctified each day. In Jesus's name, amen.

Yesterday's Bible Verse
"And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."
Philippians 4:7

Yesterday's Bible Study
In this verse from Philippians, Paul gives us a powerful image of peace. It surpasses our understanding and keeps our hearts and minds on Jesus. Today, we'll talk about why God gives us peace and how it affects our lives.

God gives us peace because His character is good and we can rest in who He is. He is all-powerful and loving, and nothing can separate us from His love. There is nowhere we could go that would make us distant from His love, and we can trust that He is working for our good in everything. He is always in control and is always merciful and just. We don't have to understand everything in the world; we merely have to know that God is love.


When we have peace, our hearts and minds are thinking about Jesus. Knowing Jesus and meditating on who He is brings us peace! He gives us comfort when we are struggling and hope when we can't understand what's happening. Jesus brought ultimate peace because He settled once and for all the breach that sin put in our relationship with God. He made it possible for us to approach the Lord and talk to Him because He wiped us clean of sin. He has opened up the possibility of peace between us and God, and meditating on Him brings peace to our hearts.

Think about walking in peace in every circumstance of your life, especially the difficult ones. We do not have to understand why painful things happen to us. We don't have to have answers because knowing the love of God is sufficient to supply peace. If you feel your heart beginning to wander away from this peace, think about today's verse. Ask the Lord to help you see Him and walk in the peace that He alone can provide.
Yesterday's Prayer
Dear Lord, I thank you so much for peace. I am so grateful to always have it within my reach. You have supplied all of my needs in abundance, and your goodness is precious to me. Help me to have peace in every moment. I want to walk closer to you. In Jesus's name, amen.
