Memory Verse: But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; Isaiah 40:31 NKJV
1 Timothy 1
1Timothy was written to Timothy in A.D. 64 or 65, after Paul’s first imprisonment in Rome (Acts 28:16-31). Apparently, Paul had been out of prison for several years, and during that time he had revisited many churches in Asia and Macedonia. When he and Timothy returned to Ephesus, they found widespread false teaching in the church. Paul had warned the Ephesian elders to be on guard against the false teachers who inevitably would come after he had left (Acts 20:17-31).
Lord, remind us that we are resident aliens, called to be in the world but not of it. Show us today what it means to live as though your kingdom has come while trusting that it is still coming. Amen. (commonprayer.net)
