MULTIPLY: Fan into Flames
2 Timothy 1:6-8
“This is why I remind you to fan into flames the spiritual
God gave you when I laid my hands on you. For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline. So never be ashamed to tell others about our Lord. And don’t be ashamed of me, either, even though I’m in prison for him. With the strength God gives you, be ready to suffer with me for the sake of the Good News.” —2 Timothy 1:6-8 (NLT)
THE GIFT OF POWER
“Don’t you realize that your body is the
of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price.” —1 Corinthians 6:18-20 (NLT)
“And the Holy Spirit
us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words.” —Romans 8:26 (NLT)
THE GIFT OF LOVE
“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.” —John 3:16 (NLT)
“Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is
.” —1 Corinthians 13:13 (NLT)
THE GIFT OF SELF-DISCIPLINE
“Then we will no longer be immature like children. We won’t be tossed and blown about by every wind of new teaching. We will not be influenced when people try to trick us with lies so clever they sound like the truth. Instead, we will speak the truth in love,
in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church.” —Ephesians 4:14-15 (NLT)
“Our stand for Jesus won’t cost us much, but failing to share the true faith in these times could cost an unbeliever everything.” —Shane Bishop
