Devotion: In 1 Thessalonians, Paul gives thanks for those who turned from idol worship to serve God. Pray today that your friend would be among those who turns from idols—power, possessions, money—to serve the true and living God.

Prayer

Lord, Paul gives thanks for those in the Church who turned from idols to serve You, the true and living God. This is exactly what ______________ needs to do. Though he/she would likely not admit he/she is serving idols, that’s exactly what’s happening. Money. Power. Possessions. Fame. Anything other than You! Cause ______________ to see these things for what they are— frail and flimsy sources of hope and ultimately not worthy of worship. I pray for a time when I will be able to look back on ______________’s life and testify that he/she turned from idols to trust in You—the only true God.
