2 Timothy 2

Thank you, father, that your solid foundation stands. You, Almighty God, know those who are yours. By your grace and mercy, I am your child.

I am diligent to present myself to you as an instrument for your use; a worker who studies your gospel and rightly divides your word of truth.

I am a vessel in your house. You have cleansed me and made me fit to be a vessel of honor. I am sanctified and useful to you, my God and my Master. I am prepared by your indwelling spirit for every good work.

I flee worldly lust, and I avoid foolish arguments and crude talk. I pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on you, Lord, out of a pure heart.

I’m belong to you, father, so I do not quarrel, but I am gentle to all, able to teach, patient, and humble. I pray others will come to know you. That they will come to their senses and escape from the traps of the devil and the plots of this world. Grant repentance, dear Lord.
