TONIGHT’S SCRIPTURE:

Titus 2:11–12

[11] For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, [12] training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, (ESV)

SUMMARY

We read Titus 2:11–12 and admit how quickly God’s call to self-control can feel like pressure and performance. We slow down to hear the good news first: grace is God’s help coming to us, empowering real change and real rest.

• Titus 2:11–12 as a promise before a command 
• the pressure of trying to “perform” godliness 
• grace as God’s help for what we cannot do 
• salvation in Jesus as the source of empowerment 
• renouncing ungodliness and worldly passions without pretending they vanish 
• self-controlled, upright, godly living as Spirit-given strength for today 
• obedience as gratitude rather than earning 
• a bedtime reminder and prayer to rest in God’s salvation
