God Gives Us Word of Life
Paul writes his 2nd letter to Tim
from prison with imminent death.
And yet the focus of Paul’s letter
is not on his own problems and
needs but on the problems and
needs of young Timothy who is
pastor of the 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 Receive Your Word of Life:
All Scripture is inspired by God
and is useful to teach us what
us true and to make us realise
what is wrong in our lives.
It straightens us out and
teaches us to do what is right.
It is God’s way of preparing us
in every way, fully equipped for
every good thing God wants us
to do (2Tim 3:16-17). Amen.
Father God, You have shown us
in your Word in the Old Testament
the need of Man for redemption.
Through the gospels, you reveal
the way to salvation through faith
in Your Son Jesus Christ. And You
have given us letters that reveal
Your heart and guide our lives.
Thank you for your inspired Word
which is more precious than
silver or gold. In His name, Amen.
Lord, thank you for not leaving us
to walk in darkness and for giving
us the light of yr Word to guide us.
Help me to cherish the wonderful
gift in your holy Scriptures and
to receive its teaching and
instruction for my life. And do
guide my prayers through the
inspiration of your Word. Amen.
Lord, thank you for revealing
Yourself to the world through
the Bible. Your Word is a trust-
worthy guide for life. Teach and
correct us. Prepare us spiritually
for whatever the future holds.
And we claim that Your Word is
alive and active and will be our
resource when in trouble. Amen
