Some great words for 2024

Here are some good words from 1 Thessalonians 5:16-22 NLT. They are great advice for 2024…or for any year!


[16] Always be joyful.

[17] Never stop praying.

[18] Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.

[19] Do not stifle the Holy Spirit.

[20] Do not scoff at prophecies, [21] but test everything that is said. Hold on to what is good.

[22] Stay away from every kind of evil.

This would be a good passage of Scripture to focus on this year. It encourages us to pray, be joyful and thankful. It also warns us to be open to the Holy Spirit and prophetic words and to flee from all kinds of evil.

It is amazing how much is packed in to God’s Word in a few short sentences. Words of life.
