Comfort Each Other
Comfort Each Other
Many times the stress of daily life keeps us focused on what we don’t have instead of what we have. In times of trouble we need to remember our salvation and the hope we have in Jesus Christ as savior.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.
Do not worry about the things that are temporary, but focus on the eternal treasure that has been established and is waiting for you in heaven.
John 14:1-3 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me.2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.
We will be received by our Lord Jesus Christ and be with Him for eternity. This is the promise of our salvation by God. We need to be of good cheer because Christ has overcome the world.
John 16:33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”
Father God we thank you for the comfort of our salvation. We ask for you’re wisdom to see clearly the spiritual things that are taking place in our lives. We cancel the schemes of the enemy to bring us worry and stress and focus on our salvation and eternity with you in Jesus name! Amen.
2 Corinthians 1:3-4 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
Romans 8:38-39
For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come,nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
