Praying Through the Pastorals: 2 Timothy 1



2 Timothy Chapter One: a prayer

Thank You Lord for faithful parents who taught me about you, both by their words and the way that they lived. May I continue on and even build on this legacy of faith. Please help me to demonstrate the Spirit that you have given me, one of power, love, and self-control.

Help me to not be ashamed of the gospel or to the calling that you called me to. May my works be because of the grace you have given, remembering Jesus the Messiah and his work. May I follow the wisdom and truth of your word and of those who have gone before me. Help me to pattern my life after them by the power of the Holy Spirit who lives as a deposit within me. Thank you for faithful servants who continue on in the hard times. Please bless them with a special blessing, today and on that final day. Amen
