2 Timothy 1:7 & 8 "Spirit of Power"


2 Timothy 1:7 & 8

            “For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.”

            Every day we have many opportunities to share about Christ. Every single person we come in contact with is a person to whom we can witness to, whether through our actions or our words. We were not given a spirit of timidity. We were given a spirit of power to boldly preach the gospel to those around us. We were given a spirit of love so that we might be an example of God’s amazing love for us. And we were given a spirit of self-discipline so that we might not fall captive to the sins of this world, to lead by our example.

            “So do not be ashamed to testify about our Lord, or ashamed of me his prisoner. But join with me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God…”
