Sanctification

January 23, 2010 by Aliesha

1 Thessalonians 5:23, “Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Things God is Currently Using in my Life to Make Me Sanctified

1) My husband. A gracious gift from God, my husband is used by God in my life each day to aid in my sanctification. I am so thankful for his love and his patience! He is an example of Christ’s love towards me.

2) My pregnancy. The last few months have been challenging, with morning–err–all day sickness. The Lord has used this time to draw me closer to Him and to help prepare me spiritually for being a parent.

3) Being a pastor’s wife. This is an area that God has been using and I know will continue to use in my life to make me more like Him. I am still learning what this role means, and what it means to truly be a support and a help to my husband as he pastors the youth of the church.

There are many more, but those are the three I decided to share publicly.

What is God using in your life right now to “sanctify you completely”?

    My husband definitely – messages from Pastor – right now looking at Rev. and heaven, my godly daughters who constantly show me Jesus. Ever since I read your post – I keep thinking about Jesus praying, “SANCTIFY them through thy Truth, Thy Word is Truth.” Good motivator to get more and more in His Truth! love you – mom
