Podcasts about 1 thessalonians 5

This week, I'm sharing another special moment from the live podcast back in October, where I'm reading through 1 Thessalonians 5, and letting Scripture bring us back to what we forget most easily: who we are in Christ.This passage is such a steady reminder that we are children of light. We're not called to live in fear, anxiety, or spiritual numbness, but to stay awake, anchored, and strengthened in the Lord. As I read, I share what this could look like in real life: choosing patience with one another, leaning into community, praying with and for each other, and learning how to give thanks in all things… even when it's not easy.This special episode is for anyone who's felt discouraged in their growth, frustrated with the process of patience, or tempted to forget the miracle of what God already did on the cross.If sanctification feels slow and obedience feels heavy, I pray this reminds you: God is faithful, He is keeping you, and your identity has already been secured.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Titus 3:8-11 New King James Version   8 This is a faithful saying, and these things I want you to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men. 9 But avoid foolish disputes, genealogies, contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and useless. 10 Reject a divisive man after the first and second admonition, 11 knowing that such a person is warped and sinning, being self-condemned.

One of the greatest tests of our faith is our devotion to prayer. Like 1 Thessalonians 5:17 says, "pray constantly." As a prayerfully dependent church, we have to be unified on what prayer is, why we pray, how do and what we pray, and to whom do we pray to?

Join us as we welcome Pastor Tom DeSomer to share with us out of 1 Thessalonians 5:1-17 in a message titled "No Surprise."

You may not realize it, but there's a lot of prayer going on all around the world. In Tibet they use spinning prayer wheels; the more the better to attract the attention of the gods. In Japan in the Shinto shrines they clap hands to get the attention of the spirits and light candles to gain the favor of their ancestors.  In Saudi Arabia carpets are carefully placed on the floor so worshippers can pray in the direction of the holy city of Mecca, believing that geography determines the effectiveness of one's prayers. In Jerusalem prayers are recited by the western wall of an ancient temple – written on small pieces of paper and stuffed into the cracks in the wall - also believing its location adds extra oomph to one's prayers. All around the world people are praying. But Jesus flips all this on its head with one word and takes prayer to a level no one ever anticipated. Find out more in this episode of Gospel Wabi Sabi.

St. Paul concludes his first letter to the Thessalonians by commending them to the God of peace, who alone makes His people holy until the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. Just as conversion to the Christian faith is God's work, so is keeping us in the Christian faith God's work, and St. Paul expresses confidence that God will do this for the Thessalonians. He asks the Thessalonians to pray for him and his team and to bring his affectionate greetings to the congregation. St. Paul expects his letter to be read by the Thessalonians as the Word of God, and he concludes with God's saving grace.  Rev.

St. Paul gives further instructions to his brothers in Christ in Thessalonica as to what their lives should look like as Christians waiting for the Last Day. Hearers respect and esteem their pastors as those men work diligently to proclaim the Gospel. Peace reigns in the congregation as those who are weak and faint are treated with patience. Forgiveness trumps vengeance. Joy, prayer, and thanksgiving abound. All of these gifts characterize Christian congregations as the Holy Spirit accomplishes His will for the Church through the word of Jesus Christ.  Rev.

St. Paul reminds the Thessalonians about the coming day of the Lord. No one knows the date. Christ's return will be sudden, and those who have sought security apart from Him will go to destruction. Christians, however, do not live in that darkness. Christ has called us into His light, and so we live in alert, wakeful sobriety produced by attention to the Lord's Word. His gifts of faith, love, and hope protect us from the devil's attacks, as God fulfills His will of bringing us to His gift of eternal salvation.  Rev.
