Jesus told us not to be ashamed of Him in the face of this wicked generation that we live in. Paul has to remind Timothy of the same thing. Maybe you need a good reminder today to face the world for Christ…unashamed.

 Sometimes we struggle with issues of fear and timidity when we are faced with opportunities to serve the Lord. Here in 2 Timothy 1, Paul exhorts Timothy to serve without shame and he uses himself and Onesiphorus as good examples for Timothy to model his ministry after.

 We know that we are to live by faith and not by sight. That’s hard to do when we are overwhelmed by trials. Yet we can learn from one of the Bible’s greatest examples of how to live out a truly marvelous faith. And the example may come from a person you least suspect.

 They say that faith can’t be trusted until it’s been tested. It is certainly true that I discover the depth and strength of my faith when trials overwhelm me. Today we get to look at a man whose faith was so deep and so strong in the midst of trial that even Jesus marveled at him.

The 20/80 Rule says that 20% of the people at church do 80% of the work of the church. That is not the way that God designed His church to operate. He has equipped every born-again believer so that each one of us has been “Saved to Serve.”

Paul said, “I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.” Paul had physical marks, for sure. But he also bore the marks, the character traits of a follower of Jesus Christ. We too should bear “The Marks of a True Disciple. ”

Partnerships are powerful and partnerships are important. Yes, we are to serve the Lord, but not alone. There are those who have gone before us on whose work we build, and there are those who walk beside us who help us build for the future. Paul reminds Timothy of these truths in the extended greeting of this second letter.

There is an old African Proverb that says, “If you want to go fast, go alone. But if you want to go far, walk together.” That is true in the Christian life. We are better in partnership with like-minded brothers and sisters in Christ. Here, Paul talks to Timothy about “The Power of Partnerships.”
