1 Timothy 2:1-10 The Message

Simple Faith and Plain Truth

2 1-3 The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how for everyone you know. Pray especially for rulers and their governments to rule well so we can be quietly about our business of living simply, in humble contemplation. This is the way our Savior God wants us to live.

4-7 He wants not only us but everyone saved, you know, everyone to get to know the truth we've learned: that there’s one God and only one, and one Priest-Mediator between God and us—Jesus, who offered himself in exchange for everyone held captive by sin, to set them all free. Eventually, the news is going to get out. This and this only has been my appointed work: getting this news to those who have never heard of God and explaining how it works by simple faith and plain truth.

8-10 Since prayer is at the bottom of all this, what I want mostly is for men to pray—not shaking angry fists at enemies but raising holy hands to God. And I want women to get in there with the men in humility before God, not primping before a mirror or chasing the latest fashions but doing something beautiful for God and becoming beautiful doing it.


For Reflection

Prayer is the key to an enduring life in peace, Godliness, and dignity. Prayer is the means by which we speak to God, and God speaks to us. Without prayer, our relationship with God deteriorates from our lack of attention to God's will. 

Pray

Pray so that you stay focused on doing the will of God. Pray so you can hear God's voice and see God's will in action.
