:: Encouragement to be Faithful ::

2 Timothy 1:3-7

3 I thank God, whom I serve, as my forefathers did, with a clear conscience, as night and day I constantly remember you in my prayers.

4 Recalling your tears , I long to see you, so that I may be filled with joy.

5 I have been reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.

6 For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.

7 For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and self-discipline (self-control).

8 So do not be ashamed to testify about our Lord, or ashamed of me His prisoner. But join me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God,

9 who has saved us and called us to a holy life - not because of anything we have done but because of His own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time,

10 but it has now been revealed through the appearing of Christ Jesus, who has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel!

Amen! our encouragement to be faithful lies not in anything we have done, but because of God's purpose and grace! Therefore we have a spirit of power, love and self-control! We have the freedom in Christ, because we are prisoners of Christ! Thank you Jesus!
