Section One

Part Two opens with the theme of Expository Thursday, as David explores 2 Thessalonians 1:11. Paul’s prayer for believers is that God would count them worthy of their calling and powerfully fulfill their every good desire and work of faith. David emphasizes this is not a salvation statement but a devotional one. He encourages listeners to grasp the depth of Paul’s confidence: that God does not operate in half-measures. When God fulfills a desire or brings about a work of faith, it is powerful, clear, and unmistakably divine. David insists the only thing blocking us from seeing it is our own doubt—not God’s limitations.

Section Two

The conversation shifts into practical encouragement, with phone calls from listeners like Roger and JD, both of whom contribute spiritually rich reflections. David walks Roger through a tech issue with grace, then affirms his faith statement that “faith without works is dead.” JD shares a praise report about a career decision requiring humility, which leads David into a discussion about how pride often blocks us from spiritual growth. Through these exchanges, David reinforces that being moldable before God—like showing up humbly, willing to change—is key to victorious Christian living. Show up, yield, and let the Lord work.

Section Three

David finishes by reiterating the importance of drawing closer to the Lord daily and never being ashamed of Jesus or His words. He reminds listeners that their faith should be active and surrendered, modeled after Jesus’ own prayer in Gethsemane. Praise reports and prayer requests are invited as a way of glorifying God and strengthening one another. The final devotional moment reflects on Romans 3:27, teaching that no one can boast before God because salvation is not based on works, but on faith. Our righteousness comes from Jesus alone—no good deed can erase the stain of sin, but Christ’s righteousness imputed to us makes us clean.
