2 Thessalonians 2:13-14 Give Thanks Alway to God for You
2 Thessalonians 2:13-14 (KJV) But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
It is the prayer of the Apostle Paul for the church in Thessalonica because God has worked mightily to call men and women to faith through the preaching of the gospel. God has ordained preaching to be the means to bring souls to salvation through the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit in bring conviction and conversion.
What a marvellous time of the harvesting of souls to the glory of God. Much thanksgiving in the heart of the gospel team to see the Lord wondrous work in drawing men and women to Him.
Indeed, a converted soul is eternally blessed and he that sows in tears shall now reap in joy. Amen.
