2 Timothy1:6

6 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance , that thou stir up the gift of God , which is in thee, by the putting on of my hands .

Pauls affection to Timothy was so far from abating his faithfulness to him, that it quickned him to admonish him to be faithful in his ministry, and to that end,

He adviseth him to put new Life unto that holy fire (the word signifies the recovering of fire choked with ashes or decaying) which God had kindled in him.

By daily Prayer, and meditating on the things of God and use of his gifts, improving those spiritual abilities which God had given him.

Upon the Prayers of Paul, and the Presbytery when he was by them set apart to the work of an Evangelist for the end for which God had given them to him.
