“Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
1 Thessalonians 5:23
Amen. Lord God, give us grace to pray this over one another. Thank You, Jesus, this is also Your prayer for us so we can be the Bride without spot or wrinkle. When man ages, there are more spots and wrinkles. But, we are a new Creation in Christ. And His life in resurrection is a life of renewing in spirit, day by day. Thank You Jesus’ resurrection life spreads beyond our spirit and permeates our mind, our emotion, and our will. And just as Jesus opened the eyes of the man born blind and raised Jarius’ daughter and Lazarus from the dead, this precious Spirit is giving life to our mortal bodies. We respond with a resounding, “Amen!”
And God of peace, the hearts of the people in Garden Grove and beyond are anxious. We pray that this threat of disaster turns us to You, God of peace. The peace You give doesn’t exist in this world apart from You. We are trusting in You and cause people to call on Your Name in their fear and restlessness. Whoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved!
May it be so, Lord Jesus!
