Walk thru Eph #152
versebyverse | May 01, 2008 20:47
Thought: To me, God always provides a "support network" for us when needed.
Question: Am I someone's "brother" and "servant" to lend help to them?
Scripture: Ephesians 6:21 (NIV): "Tychicus, the dear brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will tell you everything, so that you also may know how I am and what I am doing."
Paul is "in chains", but God compensates. Paul is unable to go and minister to his own flock in Ephesus, but Tychicus can go in his stead. God has His ways of getting around any of the worst circumstances. God provides us with trustworthy people: people who are both "dear" and "faithful." God is good.
Through Tychicus, the Ephesians hear of Paul all they need to know so that the prayers of verses 19 and 20 can be formed. God allows this, advocates this, arranges for it, too.
Prayer: Lord, thank You for people like Tychicus who was dear to Paul and faithful to him even during imprisonment. Help me to be like that! Amen.
