JUNE 25
PREACH THE WORD

Scripture:  2 Timothy 4:2-3 “Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.  For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine: but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers having itching ears;”

    The command is given here to young Timothy to preach the Word of God.  What a need we have in this day of good Godly preachers to hear the call and stand and proclaim what thus saith the Lord! The Lord used this passage of scripture to call me into the ministry many years ago and I thank God for that call!  
     He encourages Timothy here to preach the word, because there will come a time when they will not endure sound doctrine. Preach, he says, because there will come a time when people will not listen to or accept sound doctrine.  I truly believe we are living in those days. Notice he says they want teachers not preachers.  They want men who will tickle their ears with what they want to hear.  So sad that we are living in such times.  
    “Preach on, don’t give up, so many need to hear.  Preach on, Preach on, their faces never fear.  Preach on, take a stand, tell them what is right. Preach on, Preach on, be faithful in the fight.
    Preach on, stand your ground, His Word is true.  Preach on, Preach on, if it’s the last thing that you do.  Preach on, weary pilgrim, He has called you to go. Preach on, Preach on, so many need to know.
    Preach on, sound the trumpet, let your voice be heard.  Preach on, Preach on, give them God’s precious Word.  Preach on, do your best to reach ever soul.  Preach on, Preach on, preach the message as you’re told. 
    To the preachers, keep on preaching the Word. To the saints, keep on listening to the Word.  Holler “Amen” every once in a while.  Be a doer of the word and not a hearer only!
