Watch your life and doctrine closely,persevere in them, because if you do you will save both yourself and your hearers.
Application/Observation: This is said by Paul to young Timothy, telling him of a time when people will abandon faith and fallow teachings of the unholy or demons. It is a warning of the best ways to protect and guard against a weak church infrastructure. The scripture stood out to me, because it reminded me that in God we all have a future and a bright one at that. So as with our physical bodies, when we lack exercise, we become soft and weak, when we are soft and weak are bodies are more likely to be attacked by unseen illnesses and viruses, so it stands to reason, when we lack exorcise on the gospel and scriptures of Christ, that will then leave us open and vulnerable for attack by the unholy and demonic forces. I think it says to leaders of the Church to arm your selves and teach with the spirit in lead, let God have the control, speak from your heart and worry less about what you have planned to say. Personally I have been to spirit led church and I felt amazing power and so much glory for god in that room, it was magical and shook my soul, I felt God in that place. Isn't that what we all want?
Prayer: Dear Father, please be with me as I pray for myself and others Lord please help me to be open to listening to what is is you are wanting me to hear Lord and be with all the Paster's, Ministers, and Church Leaders as they examine your word, Lord and just allow them to worry less about how they may sound in sermon and what words they think their followers need to hear, and instead focus on bringing your Holy Spirit back in the four walls of the church and Lord speak through them. In Jesus name, Amen!
