God’s Truth for Trying Times - 12/19/21

 

We need God’s truth in trying times. Read the Scripture passage, think about what it is saying, then pray; by yourself or with your household. Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly (Col. 3:16).

 

READ: 1 Timothy 5:9-10

Let a widow be enrolled if she is not less than sixty years of age, having been the wife of one husband, and having a reputation for good works: if she has brought up children, has shown hospitality, has washed the feet of the saints, has cared for the afflicted, and has devoted herself to every good work. [1 Timothy 5:9-10 ESV]

 

CONSIDER: There were strict stipulations for a widow to be put on the church list of widows to care for. It is a explanatory portrait of a godly woman and is a beautiful model for women to aspire to in order to be commended by God.

 

 

THINK: What does this declare about God? What are God’s people being called to do? What assurance is given? How does the Word of God transform our hearts and lives and relationships?

 

PRAY: Pray these verses to God as a prayer. Pour out your heart in praise to God. Pray for others. Present needs to Him.
