🕊️ Finally, then, brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, just as you are doing, that you do so more and more.

For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus. For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality; that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God; that no one transgress and wrong his brother in this matter, because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as we told you beforehand and solemnly warned you. For God has not called us for impurity, but in holiness. Therefore whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you. 🕊️

1 Thessalonians 4:1-8

Good morning Father!

Thank You for this day!

Thank You for my life!

Thank You for my sweet bride!

Thank You for my beautiful daughter!

Thank You for Your grace and mercy, which is upon me every day Lord. 

Thank You for Your Holy Spirit, which sanctifies me and gives me a sense of confidence I’m walking in the path of the Way, and in Your light of truth and righteousness.

Help me to steady my walk and not waver!

I pray for strength in my bones and my body, which is aging. Help my eyes to see clearly, what is before me at all times, my hands to hold onto the tools of my trade and to perform my duties as a husband, father, and caretaker of our home. Above all Lord, may Your Holy Spirit, quicken my mind, focusing my thoughts on Your Word and Your Way, which guides all men of faith, in Jesus’ name, Amen!
