GOD'S WORD TODAY

1 Thessalonians 5:16-20

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing and give thanks to God at every moment. This is the will of God, your vocation as Christians. Do not quench the Spirit.

 ---- Mine, if you desire to follow Me closely you must be aware that I never leave your side; once you know this with certainty and with as little conscious effort you put in drawing your breath, you will rejoice always. You will talk to Me constantly. This is prayer, the conversations we have with each other. 

The source of your joy is knowledge of Me. Grow in knowledge of Me and your faith, hope, and love will increase. Just as doing My Father's will was food and drink to Me so must doing My will be food and drink for you. Ask the Holy Spirit, implore His help daily, for without His help the journey can become daunting and you could grow fainthearted and perish by the wayside. Ask for the Holy Spirit and yield to His prompting in all the circumstances of your life and you will be able to live rejoice always, prayer without ceasing and give thanks every moment of your life.
