1 Thessalonians 5:16-24

The Voice

¹⁶ Celebrate always, ¹⁷ pray constantly, and ¹⁸ give thanks to God no matter what circumstances you find yourself in. (This is God’s will for all of you in Jesus the Anointed.) ¹⁹ Don’t suppress the Spirit. ²⁰ Don’t downplay prophecies. ²¹ Take a close look at everything, test it, then cling to what is good. ²² Put away every form of evil.

²³ So now, may the God of peace make you His own completely and set you apart from the rest. May your spirit, soul, and body be preserved, kept intact and wholly free from any sort of blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus the Anointed. ²⁴ For the God who calls you is faithful, and He can be trusted to make it so.
