1 Thessalonians 4

Today we are reading 1 Thessalonians 4. In this chapter Paul writes about the second coming of Jesus! All the details are very exciting for believers! These are words that inspire us and give us hope.  The keyword for this chapter is “pa-ra-ka-le-o”. The definition is “to exhort, to beseech,to encourage, to comfort”. “For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. Therefore encourage one another with these words.” 1 Thessalonians‬ ‭4:16-18‬ ‭How does it encourage you when you think about Jesus’ return? How would it lift up and give hope to those around you as you speak of His second coming? May God bless you to live every day as if this is the day of His return!  Pastor Tim
