Lord, in Your
kindness, hear my prayers. Teach me
Your ways that I may walk in Your truth.
Mould my heart to love You, for You comfort and help me. I thank You with all my heart, glory to Your
name forever. Amen.
1 Timothy
1. This chapter is so filled with
advice, and hurt, and longing it is
amazing. Paul is writing to Timothy to
support Timothy’s ministry. But life in
the new Christian community is not going well.
Most people are believers, but there is a group of teachers… a group of
leaders who are teaching against the gospel. They think that they are Christian
but have a better way of being a Christian.
Timothy’s task is to keep the new Christian community on the main road
of Christian faith. Wow. What a ministry to be handed! The group of teachers wanted to debate false
doctrines instead of focussing upon gaining a pure heart and a good conscience
and sincere faith. Paul reminds
Timothy that he is not sent to this new Christian Community to debate what the
group of teachers but to preach the Good News of Jesus Christ. The new Christian Community that Timothy is
working with is the community of Ephesus
Today, keep the minister of your congregation in your prayers of encouragement.
Lord, in Your
kindness, hear my prayers. Teach me
Your ways that I may walk in Your truth.
Mould my heart to love You, for You comfort and help me. I thank You with all my heart, and give glory
to Your name forever. Amen.
