Love God Greatly - 1 & 2 Thessaloniansনমুনা

Read: 2 Thessalonians 3:13-15

SOAP: 2 Thessalonians 3:13

Paul challenges the believers in Thessalonica to not grow weary of doing good. As sisters in Christ we are called to hold each other accountable. Rather than looking the other way when someone is slipping into sin, we should lovingly point them to the truth and invite them to confess their sins and turn back to obedience.

Walking in obedience may require you to swim against the tide of indifference. Are your current intimate friendships helping you to grow closer to Christ, or are you drifting further away from following your Savior faithfully? Evaluate the relationships you are currently cultivating and choose to step back from constant fellowship with individuals who do not fuel your faith. If you have a friend whose faith is cooling, pray about having a heart-to-heart soon.

Father, I want to follow after You with all my heart. Help me to choose my close friends wisely. May my life always encourage others to follow hard after You. Amen.
