1 Timothy 2 - Praying God's Word

Please read 1 Timothy 2.

Meditate on verses 1-4.

First of all, then,
I urge that entreaties and prayers,

 petitions and thanksgivings,
be made on behalf of all men,

for kings and all who are in authority,


so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life
in all Godliness and dignity.


This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,

who desires all men to be saved
and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

Paul commanded Timothy to fight the good fight, keep the faith, and keep a good conscience. Some people in the church rejected doing those things, and their faith suffered shipwreck (1 Timothy 1:18-20). How could the shipwreck of one’s faith be averted? Pray! Pray for yourself and pray for everyone else. The way to fight the good fight is with prayer. It was the first thing God told the Ephesian Christians to do, and He commands you to do the same. Your faith and the faith of others is at stake. God wants all people to be saved, and He wants you to pray for their salvation.

Pray 1 Timothy 2:4 over those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

 “LORD, You say in Your Word

You desire for all people to be saved

and come to the knowledge of the truth.

Please save ________.


For the sake of Your name, Jesus~”
