You will say everything that I command you...
2 TIMOTHY 4:2 (CEB)
Preach the word. Be ready to do it whether it is convenient or inconvenient. Correct, confront, and encourage with patience and instruction.
THE ESSENCE
Receive and deliver God's word.
DAILY FODDER
What if you're not a preacher or a prophet, how does God expect you to deliver his word? What does that look like?
PRAYER
Truth-telling God, thank you for all the prophets and preachers you've called to deliver your word throughout the generations. Forgive us for our unreadiness to receive what you have to say. Nurture receptivity in my life so that I can hear and do. Maybe you'll even call me to deliver your word in some way. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
