2 Timothy 2 - Praying God's Word


Please read 2 Timothy 2.
Meditate on verse 1.

You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
Timothy needed to consider the Truth of God. He needed to remember Jesus Christ and remind others of Godly things (2 Timothy 2:7, 8, 14).
What are you pondering today? What occupies your thoughts? Is it the Word of Truth, the Bible, or is it the worries and cares of life? Pondering your worries will not change your circumstances or the circumstances of others. Considering, sharing, and praying the Word of God will change life situations. There are many treasure verses to pray over your loved ones from 2 Timothy 2. Find the ones you need to pray and occupy yourself with those verses today.
Pray 2 Timothy 2:15-16 and 22-25 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
 “LORD, help ________ and me to be diligent
 to present ourselves approved unto You
 as workmen who do not need to be ashamed.
 Help us accurately handle the Word of Truth.

Let us avoid worldly and empty chatter,

for it will lead to further ungodliness.

Let us flee youthful lusts and pursue
righteousness, faith, love, and peace

with those who call on You from a pure heart.
Help us refuse foolish and ignorant speculations,
 knowing that they produce quarrels.
Make us Your bond-servants who are not quarrelsome,
 but kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged,
gently correcting those who are in opposition.

For the sake of Your name, Jesus~”

The WATCHMAN on the WALL ~ Dr. Ron and Marsha Harvell
