1 Thessalonians 5:7-9
Night is the time when people sleep and drinkers get drunk. But let us who live in the light be clearheaded, protected by the armor of faith and love, and wearing as our helmet the confidence of our salvation. For God chose to save us through our Lord Jesus Christ, not to pour out his anger on us.
Today’s Prayer
Lord,
Free me from the chains of laziness and excess. Strengthen me to walk in the light, resolute against the shadows of darkness and evil. Grant me vigilance and clarity, that I may trust in Your power to defend and deliver me from my adversaries.
Let me abide in Your love, a beacon to those around me. Help me to stand firm in my salvation, casting aside doubt and fear. I seek to live in steadfast hope, with my eyes fixed on heaven and eternity with You.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
