In today's episode, Crystal continues through I Thessalonians chapter five. Remember we are getting instruction on how to live while we wait for Christ’s return, growing in HOLINESS.

This section (vs. 16-28) gives us some short and direct commands to help us live pleasing to the LORD.

• Rejoice evermore.
• Pray without ceasing.
• In every thing give thanks...
• Quench not the Spirit.
• Despise not prophesyings.
• Prove all things;
• Hold fast that which is good.
• Abstain from all appearance of evil.

Rest assured. We can't do it by ourselves. It is only by God's grace and He is faithful to do it (vs. 23-24). We just need to surrender to the process. We need to stay sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit and be obedient when He reveals things in our lives. That is how we will be able to stand blameless at the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ!

We will continue our study with II Thessalonians chapter one next week! Here's the link to the study guide if you'd like one to accompany your study.
