I Timothy 2:1-7
I Timothy 2:1-7
Now that we have a strong foundation built solidly on God's word, Paul will address the first important thing to build on this foundation. Paul addresses prayer and its importance in the life of the believer. Remember that a solid prayer life begins by knowing and living in obedience to God's word. We are never to set aside the Bible in order to pray. All prayer flows from God's word.
Prayer is the ministry that we are all called to. We can pray for anyone, anywhere and at any time. Prayer is key to all ministry, all evangelism. It is essential in the work of salvation.

Chapter 2
1
I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2
For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
4
Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
5
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
6
Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
7
Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
