The Promise of Opposition
2 Timothy 3:10-17
Paul's words to Timothy are not meant to discourage but to prepare. "All who will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution" isn't a threat—it's a promise that reveals we're on the right path. When opposition comes, it confirms we're living distinctly for Christ in a world that opposes Him. The absence of opposition might indicate we've blended too comfortably into the culture around us. Today, examine your life: Are you living in a way that distinguishes you as Christ's follower? Opposition isn't something to seek, but neither should it surprise us. God's Word equips us for every good work, including enduring hardship with grace and conviction.
