Hearing God In 2Tim 1 (Nov 28)

God Keeps What’s Committed

Paul writes his 2nd letter to Timothy
from prison with imminent death.
Yet the focus of Paul is not his own
needs but the needs of Timothy
who is pastor of church at Ephesus.
Paul, who has stood faithfully for
the Lord through his life, passes
on that same challenge to Timothy.
There’s no need to fear when
You serve the Lord of the universe
and endure hardship for His sake.

Lord, we will Pray For Others:
I thank God whom I serve with a
clear conscience… as I constantly
remember you in prayers (2Tim 1:3)
For the Spirit God gave us does not
make us timid, but gives us power,
love and self-discipline (v7).
For I know whom I have believed
and am persuaded that He is able
to keep what I have committed
to Him until that Day (2 Tim 1:12).

Lord, Help me to not forget anyone
in prayers, especially those who
are lonely and feel forgotten.
Bring specific people to mind
who need a miracle or deliverance.
Show me who needs to hear
Your voice guiding them. And
enable the people I pray to sense
Your love in their lives. Amen

Lord, what a great promise that
You give us your power. Grant me
the grace that when I turn to you,
I can find the right motivation
of Your love, the necessary
strength of your power and
also the self-discipline I need
to do Your will in a way that
brings you all the glory. Amen.

Lord Father, You are my provider;
Lord Jesus, You are my saviour;
Lord Spirit, You are my sanctifier.
And I dedicate and yield my whole
self to the Lord freely and forever.
At the cross Lord, You saved me;
and in the future, You will lead me.
I affirm that whatever I entrust to U,
You’re Able to keep what You have
Committed against that day. Amen!!
