Guiding Scripture: 2 Thessalonians 2:15 ‘So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter.’

written by: Torrie Slaughter

The Apostle Paul continues to address the problems in Thessalonica. The believers were confused about the day of the Lord, causing division. However, Paul encouraged them to continue living useful lives and not forget the true teaching. When Jesus returns, he will overcome the ‘antichrist’ and display God’s glory.

Guiding Scripture: 2 Thessalonians 1:4 ‘Therefore, among God’s churches we boast about your perseverance and faith in all the persecutions and trials you are enduring.’

written by: Torrie Slaughter

Paul’s second letter to the Thessalonians addressed how believers were to wait for the Lord. After his first letter, Paul received word that the persecution worsened, and the believers were tormented, confused, and many refused to work regular jobs. The order became chaos as culture influenced the new hearts of the Thessalonians.

Guiding Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:9 ‘Now about your love for one another we do not need to write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love each other.’

written by: Torrie Slaughter

We may wonder what pleases God. In this fallen world, we have many influences and distractions. But God tells us in His Word that we live holy, peaceful, productive, and loving lives through Him. The Apostle Paul reminds the Thessalonians that they are examples and taught by God to love one another.

Guiding Scripture: Proverbs 25:1-5 (KJV) These are also proverbs of Solomon, which the men of Hezekiah, king of Judah copied out. 2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter. 3 The heaven for height, and the earth for depth, and the heart of kings is unsearchable.4 Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer. 5 Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne shall be established in righteousness.

The GOD Who Knows

By contributing writer Temi Michael-O

God is all-knowing and all-powerful. That’s what makes him different from us. We cannot fully comprehend the ways of God here on earth. However, God calls us his kings and priests (Revelation 1:6), and he desires to reveal great mysteries to us. Continue reading at www.ourgivenpurpose.com

Choose Joy

By contributing writer: Robin Lambert

You can choose to be strong, or you can choose to be joyful. You can’t do both. When you are willing to choose joy, strength will follow. You can decide to focus on the disappointments, the betrayals, the losses, the afflictions, the abuse, or you can desire to direct your attention to the joy in the Lord.

This joy can only come from Him after spending much time in His presence.  Continue reading at www.ourgivenpurpose.com

Guiding Scripture Proverbs 24:28-29 Do not testify against your neighbor without cause—would you use your lips to mislead? 29 Do not say, “I’ll do to them as they have done to me, I’ll pay them back for what they did.”

“No Payback Needed”

By contributing writer Stephanie Bright

You hit me, I hit you back. You say mean things to me, I say mean things back.

This is how kids play. But is it just kids that play like this? I’d be apt to say that a good portion of adults also “play” like this.

People can be so mean sometimes, right?...continue reading at www.ourgivenpurpose.com

To Ward Off Trouble

By contributing writer: Reason A. Chandler

We see life from a child’s perspective, which is not always bad as long as you remember to stay in a child’s place. We could sense trouble from a place deep down inside of us, and when we choose to do so, our memory will also help us, especially when danger threatens to disrupt our state of happiness at that particular time... continue reading at www.ourgivenpurpose.com
