1 Thessalonians 5

Description Of The Day Of The Lord

1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.

2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.

3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.

6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.

7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.

8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.

9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

10 Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.

11 Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

Instruction For Holy Living

12 And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;

13 And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves.

14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.

15 See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.

16 Rejoice evermore.

17 Pray without ceasing.

18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

19 Quench not the Spirit.

20 Despise not prophesyings.

21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.

22 Abstain from all appearance of evil.

Conclusion

23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

24 Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.

25 Brethren, pray for us.

26 Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss.

27 I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.

28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

Love, Walter And Debbie

Going through the news headlines each night I feel as if I'm watching a preview of the "birth pains" Jesus spoke of in Matthew 24! Have we ever seen the weather anomalies at such a magnitude? The earthquakes, raging fires, mudslides, tornadoes, sumami, flooding, heat waves globally.

War is not only occurring, but threatened in several nations beside the Russian/Ukraine conflict. China, Iran, North Korea, and others flex their muscles touting threats.

The threat of famine is appearing more and more in the news with a clog of grain export, heat sweltering crops, flodding drowning crops, heat stressing farming animals.

Deception and lawlessness have invaded every aspect of society from preschool to governing authorities, globally, reminding me that this is similar to "as in the days of Noah"

For the child of God, we know what all of this is pointing to. We know that time is ticking nearer to The Lord's return. Jesus said when you begin to see all of these things to look up, for your redemption draws near. Matthew 24.

Reading your post this morning reminds me of the importance of being ready, waiting and watching for The Lord's return. Knowing that time is short and the time of Jacob's trouble/ the tribulation period is coming near into focus by The Lord's allowed weather anomalies and suçh a presence of evil all around our daily lives, I'm looking up this morning with anticipated hope of His soon arrival.

2 Peter 3:14
Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.

Luke 21
34“Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you suddenly like a trap. 35For it will come on all those who live on the face of the whole earth. 36Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”

Revelation 3:10
“Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.”

Even so, Come Lord Jesus!
 
Amen!

Thank you for sharing.
