Established and Guarded
How are you sure of your position in this life, and your protection from the evil of this world?
God is faithful and generous concerning his children. We can be confident that God will set us up, set us on our way, and protect us from the evils of this life as we live for him.
The Apostle Paul wrote this encouragement to the church of the Thessalonians, saying, “But the Lord is faithful. He will establish you and guard you against the evil one.” (2 Thessalonians 3:3, ESV).
The Lord is faithful to establish us and to guard us against the evil one.
May we trust in our faithful God as he sets us up, sets us on our way, and establishes us, while protecting us from all evil.
A Collect for Guidance: “Heavenly Father, in you we live and move and have our being: We humbly pray you so to guide and govern us by your Holy Spirit, that in all the cares and occupations of our life we may not forget you, but may remember that we are ever walking in your sight; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
