SOAP: 2 Thessalonians 1:6-8
God is righteous, and the affliction we are facing today is will come to an end. Suffering for the Christ follower is temporary. One glorious day soon, Jesus will return with an army of angels to rescue His followers and bring judgment on those who choose to reject Him and continue glorifying sin.
Jesus is returning to set everything wrong in this world right. Wickedness will not reign forever. When you grow discouraged by the suffering you see today, remind yourself God’s righteous rule is coming soon to restore our earth and make all things new.
Righteous God, help me to rest in Your sovereign power when I am saddened by temporary suffering. Thank You for the gift of redemption. I look forward to the day when You return in flaming fire to rescue us once and for all. Amen.

About this Plan
In the books of 1st & 2nd Thessalonians, you meet a church who are going through some storms. Severe persecution is threatening their lives, and they are clinging to the promise that Jesus is coming back. This promise is from the Promise Keeper…He IS coming back. The Thessalonians had to learn to live with this hope as they lived their lives in the now.
