7-Step QT Notes

1. πŸ™ Quiet Time

Pause.

Take a deep breath.

God is not distant—He desires to draw near.

And He desires that everyone would know Him.

2. πŸ“… July 10, 2025

Today is a reminder that your faith isn’t just personal—it’s part of God’s global mission.

He wants all people to be saved, including you.

3. ✝️ 1 Timothy 2:1–15

Paul urges believers to pray for everyone—leaders, neighbors, even strangers—because God’s heart is for all people.

He reminds us that Jesus is the one mediator between God and humanity, and that His sacrifice was for everyone, not just a select few.

4. πŸ“– Key Verse

“[God] desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.” (v. 4)

5. πŸ“ Reflection

Sometimes we think God is only for the “religious” or the “good.”

But Paul makes it clear: God wants everyone to be saved.

πŸ’‘ Think about this:

  • God’s heart is bigger than our categories.
  • His desire is not judgment, but salvation.
  • That includes people you disagree with, people who’ve hurt you, and even people you’ve written off.

And yes—it includes you, too.

This passage also reminds us that prayer is part of God’s mission.

When we pray for others, we’re aligning our hearts with His.

6. πŸ’¬ What does this passage speak to you today?

  • Who in your life feels “too far” from God?
  • How does it change your perspective to know God desires their salvation?
  • How can you join God’s heart through prayer today?

“God, thank You that Your heart is for all people—including me. Help me to pray with compassion and boldness. Give me Your heart for the world, and use me to reflect Your love.”

Scriptures

πŸ“– 1 First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, 2 for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. 3 This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time. 7 For this I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

8 I desire then that in every place the men should pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling; 9 likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire, 10 but with what is proper for women who profess godliness—with good works. 11 Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness. 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve; 14 and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. 15 Yet she will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith and love and holiness, with self-control (1 Tim 2:1-15, ESV).
