Paul's closing paragraph offers a statement of blessing to the churches at Thessalonica. Our modern expression of “have a blessed day” has the same intention, yet Paul attributes the blessing from the author when he writes “the Lord of Peace.” Ultimately when we prescribe blessings we are asking God to bless the obedience of His children.

2 Thessalonians 3:16-18; 1 Thessalonians 5:23; John 14:27; James 1:17-18; Hebrews 12:14; John 1:14
