2 Timothy 1:9-14

Dear Father,

Thank you that Jesus abolished death and brought life and immortality to life through the Good News. Help us be true to this message, to teach it and preach it. Help us follow the pattern of sound words which have been given us in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.

Grant that we may guard the truth you have entrusted to us by the Holy Spirit which you have caused to dwell within us.

In the name of Jesus I ask. Amen.
