NT24 Fast

DAY 17 OF 24

Day 17 by Nancy Clark, Kid’s Pastor of UPPERROOM Frisco

Today’s Reading: 1 Timothy 4-6, 2 Timothy, Titus

When I study the Word of God, I always look for Jesus. Where do we find Jesus in 1 Timothy 6? Paul suggests Timothy should not prioritize any worldly gain but hold to the good confession like Jesus did before Pontius Pilate. Even under immense pressure, Jesus confessed His Kingdom was not of this world and that He was born to testify to the truth. He confessed that those who love truth will always hear Him. For any young pastor, learning to love and lead people well, as well as beholding and emulating Jesus, is the key to true success in life and ministry.

Prayer: Holy Spirit, let the measure of my success be YOUR approval. Keep my heart focused on Jesus, beholding His glory and power. In every situation, in the middle of each task, I whisper to my heart, “The Savior is near.” Jesus, Your brotherhood means more to me than any reward on earth. God, I trust You when You say I will build Your Kingdom by following Your lead and listening to Your voice, and that’s enough for me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
