“Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances.” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 ESV)
Rejoice always...
Experience the joy of God’s presence. Enjoy His delight in you. Revel in His love. Savor the satisfaction.
Pray without ceasing...
Stay in constant communion with the Lord. Confide in Him. Listen attentively. You don’t need words or sound. Sink completely into the awareness of His Presence. Have a devotional attitude at all times.
Give thanks in all circumstances...
Thank God in good times and in bad. Remind yourself of God’s providence. He is all-knowing, all-powerful, and always present. Even when you cannot see it, God is working. Express thanks and praise in all circumstances.
Rejoice, pray, and give thanks. This will lift up your spirit to a higher realm. Stop wallowing in the muck of self-pity, fear, or worry. Instead, experience peace, strength, and joy in God’s presence.
Spirit of God, awaken within us. Help us to rejoice always, pray without ceasing, and give thanks in all circumstances.
