2 Timothy 4:2 – Devotional

2 Timothy 4:2

“Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.

During the cold war years many Christians were imprisoned for their belief in Jesus Christ. Rather than collapsing in a heap and feeling sorry for themselves, many used prison as an opportunity to preach the gospel. Some even died for the faith.

In my own life I have endured occasional tests and trials. As I surrendered my situation to the Lord, He opened doors of ministry that could never have been entered any other way.

Many of you are enduring trials and tests right now. Please do not allow what you are experiencing to paralyze you from being used. Step forward and volunteer to serve in God’s army. Neither age nor physical limitations will disqualify.

It is not necessary for us to be perfect before He can use us — just forgiven. It is not necessary for us to complete a course of study to be used — just available. It is not necessary for us to be of a certain age to be used — just willing.

God doesn’t call the qualified; He qualifies the called.

Blessings dear hearts. May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
