Read 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12 (ESV)
Paul’s prayer here is short, but full of vision. He’s asking God to help the Thessalonians live lives worthy of the calling they’ve received, not by their own strength, but by His power. It’s a prayer for resolve, for faith, and for a life that glorifies Jesus in everything.
As we pray, we’re asking God to fulfill what He’s planted in us. To give us strength to walk by faith, not by sight. And above all, to make Jesus more known through our lives.
May our calling and His grace collide in ways that bring Him glory.
