1 Timothy Chapter Six:
May I be a good and faithful servant to those who have
charge over me. May I do my work gratefully and respectfully, especially in the
service of other believers. May my work be conducted in such a way that God is
glorified and the teaching of him is not hindered.
Please help me O Lord to be faithful to the words of my Lord
Jesus Christ. May I not become self-righteous or arrogant with works or
knowledge. May I truly seek your glory and not my own. Help me to be content
with true godliness.
May I be able to be content with my basic needs met and
nothing more. May the pursuit of wealth and comfort not be something that
distracts me from my gospel mission. In success or struggle my I keep you at
the front of my ambitions with a thankful and grateful heart.
Help me to pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love,
steadfastness, gentleness. Help me to proclaim faithfully the gospel by what I
say and by the way I live my life. May Jesus receive all the glory and honor
and praise from my life forever.
May I be able to teach the wealthy to use their given resources
for good works, sharing in the gospel mission and with those in need. Help me
to show them that true riches lie in what is eternal, not the temporary things
that we might enjoy now. May they learn to build a good foundation now for the
true life that is to come.
Keep me true to the faith, faithful to the end. By your
grace, Amen.
