I Timothy 1:17 “This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.” Our God wants all people to be living with him, to be faith-filled and to know Jesus is their Savior. Man has a free will. Many people choose to believe other than what God desires. That sad truth produces the world we live in. Praise God that your will aligns with His will and therefore your life on this earth and future life in Heaven could not be better.

I Timothy 1:17 “Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen” In the world of addiction, the term –higher being– is often used. Implying, whoever you see as whatever to worship is ok. Our inspired author, Paul, couldn’t be more against such mistaken thinking. Not only in the world of recovering from addiction, but in the world in general there is a thought of –religions are all ok, just choose one and let’s be happy as we live together. Paul, being inspired, defines the One and Only God of the Universe. Man doesn’t define God. God defines Himself.

II Thessalonians 3:18 “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.” We have all given and received gifts. Some gifts are small and some are large. No matter the size, they are all appreciated because they are given by a loving heart and received by a loving heart. There is no greater gift, no other gift which lasts into eternity and no other gift which contains greater love than the gift of grace from our Lord and Savior. Is it possible that is what the fireworks are all about tomorrow night? It is great to live in America, but it is far greater to be blessed with grace given by our Jesus–thank You–let’s celebrate.

II Thessalonians 3:10 “For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: ‘The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat.'” In this verse God is not talking about those who have a physical, mental or debilitating disability. God is talking about a person who is fully capable of working and is simply lazy. The rule is quite simple–work and eat–don’t work, don’t eat. It’s hard to get simpler than that!

II Thessalonians 2:15 “So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or letter.” The Bible is not simply a book one goes to the library to get to read for pleasure because it might have some good ideas. You don’t go to Amazon and order it used to get a deal and maybe read it, maybe not. The Bible contains such valuable wisdom that your and my eternity is held within its grasp. Our Almighty God had His words written solely for our benefit. How foolish it is to ignore the life saving truths our God explains. Read, apply and enjoy His truths.
