Devotions on F.I.R.E. Year OneSample
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches (Revelation 2:7).
Do you prize the preaching of God’s Word?
Mark captures the commencement of Jesus’ ministry with the following words: “Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God” (Mark 1:14). The author of the second gospel writes to a Roman audience. This gospel is action-oriented, and so is the Son of God. Matthew shows the urgency of Jesus’ message: “Repent,” says Jesus, “for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” (Matthew 4:17). Preaching was a primary function of Jesus’ forerunner, John the Baptist, as it is for the Messiah. Paul, noted for preaching the gospel everywhere he goes, tells Timothy, “Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season” (2 Timothy 4:2). Are you ready to hear God’s Word preached in season and out of season?
Employment Point: Be faithful to hear and obey the preaching of the Bible.
