1 Timothy 2:1-4 KJV
I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
• The Apostle says that it is good and acceptable that we live quietly and peaceably in all godliness and honesty. But first, that we pray for all men.
• He says God would have all men to be saved. But first, that we pray for all men.
• It is the Lord's will that all men come to the knowledge of the truth. But first, that we pray for all men.
So then the most productive spiritual practice of the Christian is prayer.
• Before soul winning
• Before teaching the Bible certainly
• Before political activity
Would be prayer. First of all...
I do not mean to condemn any of the other activities, but I do mean to stress that before engaging in any of them we ought first to give ourselves to prayer and supplication.
