2 Timothy 2

This weekend at Men's Conference was one of great inspiration and instruction. This chapter was quoted by Rev. Randy Keyes in his message that encouraged us to be faithful men.  The chapter begins by telling us to be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus and in verse 2 he tells us to commit to faithful men who will be able to teach others also. (HCSB). I was convicted in my heart today, knowing that I need to strive daily to be a faithful man in the kingdom of God.

In reading further into the chapter I find also where Paul was encouraging Timothy to not only become a teacher (in verse 2) but as a soldier, athlete, farmer, worker, vessel, and as a servant. Submissive and patient in humility. He encouraged him to be loyal, disciplined, a hard worker, diligent, and pure, as a vessel of honor.

All of these things are traits of a faithful man, what we must strive to be. Reach for greater things in Christ, become a REAL Man, a Faithful Man in the kingdom.

Bless you all today.  Let the Lord, the almighty, and faithful One, work in you life today!  Let's have church and be aggressive in our worship and praise!!
