My God, Thank You For Appointing Me To Obtain Salvation

November 23 Scripture Meditations Based on 1Thessalonians 4-5

Key Verse – 1Thessalonians 5:9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ.

MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR APPOINTING ME TO OBTAIN SALVATION

Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your grace
Surely forgiving me from my sin-caused carnal case
Of grievous transgression-trace…
Now, I’m Your beloved child for heavenly pace.

Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your compassion
Surely rescuing me from my helpless situation
Of hell-bound sentence-condition…
Now, I’m Your redeemed heir for holy perfection.

Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your mercy 
Surely propelling me from my hopeless persistency
Of foolish skepticism-policy…
Now, I’m Your sanctified saint for prayer-upheld fervency.

Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your goodness 
Surely cleansing me from my proud self-righteousness 
Of arrogant achievement-haughtiness…
Now, I’m Your called servant for blessed faithfulness.

Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your workmanship 
Surely disciplining me from my rebellious followership
Of hypocritical ministry-partnership…
Now, I’m Your enriched steward for grateful worship.

Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your plan 
Surely driving me from my perilous “I can”
Of personal ability-span…
Now, I’m Your secured believer for biblical scan.

Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your sovereignty 
Surely pulling me from my worthless humanity
Of miserable worldliness-vanity…
Now, I’m Your faith-propped follower for fruitful spirituality.
