Scripture Union Daily Guide 11 July 2022 Devotional Message for Monday– Make Sure You Are God’s Best!
SU Daily Guide 11th July 2022 Devotional for Monday
TOPIC: Make Sure You Are God’s Best!
OPENING PRAYER: Oh Lord, fill me with the power of the Holy Ghost as I study your word.
SCRIPTURE: 2 Timothy 2:14‐26
Scripture Union Daily Guide 11 July 2022 MESSAGE
Saint Paul vehemently stood against false teaching, including anything that could poison or distract God’s people. Hence, his pastoral letter truly advised or focused Timothy, his spiritual son cum assistant, on nothing but how to continue working hard, i.e., how to spread and live out the true message of God’s Kingdom.
Deeply meditate on vs.14‐26. Note some ways by which the Christian steward may or may not qualify for God’s approval (or certification). See vs.14‐21, 23, 25‐26 for why Paul cautions believers to strive for the best. So much wisdom abounds in Paul’s letters.
Does God know as well as own you as a sanctified member (vessel) of His household? As Christ’s servant, are you loyal to Him? Are you diligently fulfilling the ministry God entrusted you? Are you working hard to benefit God, to fully enrich our generation with what they should know and avoid; and ensure that others as well as you (unlike Hymenaeus and Philetus) are not entangled (subverted or ruined) by empty controversies, but endorsed by God?
Question(s) for Reflection
• Is there any example for me to follow or not to follow?
Practice/Word Application
Memory Verse: 2 Timothy 2:20‐21.
• Any new insight or reinforcement of what you already know?
