Can God really change the parts of your life that seem stuck? In “He Is Faithful—He Will Do It,” Pastor Evan Ryder explores the promise of 1 Thessalonians 5:23–24 and the hope of sanctifying grace.
This episode of Rediscovering Faith continues The Journey series by slowing down to reflect on Paul’s prayer: “May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through.” Discover how the Holy Spirit works throughout our lives, cleansing our hearts and forming wholehearted love for God and our neighbors.
When spiritual growth feels discouraging, this passage directs our attention to God’s character. The one who calls us is faithful—and we can trust him to accomplish the transformation we cannot produce ourselves.
In this episode:
• Explore what sanctification means for your everyday life.
• Reflect on God’s concern for your whole person—spirit, soul, and body.
• Challenge the assumption that old patterns must always define you.
• Discover how surrender, trust, and obedience respond to God’s grace.
• Turn Scripture into a personal prayer for heart transformation.
Using this week’s image of hiking shoes, we consider how God equips us to keep walking in faith. There are still steps to take, but his presence and provision sustain the journey.
Whether you’re new to following Jesus or have been a Christian for years, this Bible-based devotional invites you to renew your confidence in God’s faithful work.
Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 5:23–24
