Fan the Flame

The book of 2nd Timothy is a huge encouragement to the church. Paul is trying to fortify Timothy’s faith to face the mounting persecution that is headed his way. Timothy faced pressure, he felt fear and anxiety over the future. Paul wanted to draw his eyes back to the Lord and the ministry he was called to serve. Paul will set the stage for the letter by rehearsing what God has done in the past and how Timothy should press forward and fan the flame of the gifts that God has given him.
