Commanding Your Morning devotion 11/04/2024
Scripture:
1 Thessalonians 4:3-5 (KJV) – “For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour; Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God.”
Explanation:
Paul urges believers to pursue sanctification and honor God with their bodies by abstaining from sexual immorality and lustful desires.
He emphasizes the importance of self-control and living in a manner that
reflects the knowledge of God rather than following worldly desires.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father,
Grant us the strength to live lives of purity and sanctification, honoring You with our bodies. Help us to resist the temptations of lust and to possess our vessels in holiness and honor.
May our lives be a testimony of Your transforming power and grace. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
