Delivered. Preserved.

And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

2 Timothy 4:18

Reading:

2 Timothy 4:1-18

“Who shall judge” me — how does that reality affect my so-called daily life?

Do I still value and live by sound doctrine?

Am I committed to keeping my ears turned toward the truth?

How am I fighting a good fight and keeping the faith?

“Hath forsaken me” versus “profitable to me” — who has experienced which from me?

Who is depending on me? And how?

“I pray God that I may not be laid to their charge” — how can I develop such an attitude toward those who have wronged me?

Am I aware of Christ standing with me and strengthening me? Is He?

Is There a Better Word Than Wow?

Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

2 Thessalonians 2:14

Reading:

2 Thessalonians 2

How does “the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” affect my life?

“Let no man deceive you by any means” — what am I doing to implement that?

Do I have “the love of the truth”?

In what do I find pleasure, enjoyment, and/or entertainment?

By what means does the “sanctification of the Spirit” express itself through me?

“Stand fast, and hold” — how am I doing?

Such good things to enjoy and live by in verses 16 and 17! Do I?

“Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace” (16).

“Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work” (17).
