2 Thessalonians 2 ~ Praying Scripture

Please read 2 Thessalonians 2.
Meditate on verse 13.

God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation.

The believers in Thessalonica needed reassurance.  There were false rumors that the day of the Lord (events that will occur at the end of time) had come.  Paul reassured them of must occur prior to that day, about their assurance of salvation, and that God chose them and loved them.

These are reassuring words for you, too.  If you are in Christ, you are much loved by the Lord; God has chosen you for salvation, and you will gain the glory of your Lord Jesus Christ (2 Thessalonians 2:13-14).  Stand firm in these truths and do not allow the deception of wickedness into your thoughts (2 Thessalonians 2:10, 15).

Pray 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17 over yourself and those for whom you are standing guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“Lord Jesus Christ and God our Father,
You have loved _________ and me
and given us eternal comfort
and good hope by grace.
Comfort and strengthen our hearts
in every good work and word.

In Your name, Jesus~”
