Love God Greatly: 1 & 2 Thessaloniansنموونە
Read: 1 Thessalonians 5:9-11
SOAP: 1 Thessalonians 5:9-11
Paul charges the believers in Thessalonica to “encourage one another” with the Good News of the Gospel. Those who have put their faith in Christ will not face judgment for sin. Christ gave His life on the cross to rescue His followers, and we are fully forgiven.
Encouraging a friend in Christ takes just a few minutes of our time each day, but the impact is long lasting. Who do you know that is going through a very difficult season right now? Take time to call that person and pray with them or invite a friend over for coffee and to listen to their story and let them know you care. Point hurting friends to the hope in God’s Word and remind them God is at work in their lives. Discouragement in dispelled when we stand in the gap for one another.
Lord, thank You for the encouragement of Your Word and for women who take time to speak truth over my life. Show me who I may encourage this week and give me courage to speak up. 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.
