To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints. — 1 Thessalonians 3:13 KJV
May he strengthen your hearts so that you will be blameless and holy in the presence of our God and Father when our Lord Jesus comes with all his holy ones. — 1 Thessalonians 3:13 NIV
Bible Verse Reflection
Despite their evident increase in faith Paul believed that every Christians no matter how advanced they might be, should push themselves to an even higher level and he therefore urged the believers by writing: “I ask to God the Father along with Jesus Christ the Lord would direct us to your. And that the Lord inspire you to grow and be abounding in your love towards one another as well as for all other people the same way we give to our friends, in order that He can establish your hearts free of blame and the holiness of the Lord, our God our Father at the time of the arrival to our Lord Jesus together with His saints.”
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, we praise and thank God for the wonderful guidance, encouragement, and strength we get in the writings from Paul. We thank You for providing us with Your words. I ask that You guide us through Your word and teach us to develop in grace, be a person of faith and pray with the heart.
We ask You to help each of us stand with conviction and allow our hearts to be firmly rooted in the gospel to ensure that we can stand unblemished before You in purity and virtue – upon the time of the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all His holy saints. We pray in Jesus name. Amen.
