Read

Preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching.

(2 Timothy 4:2)

Pray

Dear God,

You have called me to be ready in season and out of season, to preach the word and to be prepared to correct, rebuke and encourage with great patience and careful instruction. Help me, Lord, to be faithful in carrying out this calling. Give me the boldness and wisdom to speak the truth in love, and the compassion and patience to come alongside those who are in need of correction, rebuke or encouragement. May my words and actions be a reflection of Your grace and truth, and may they bring glory to Your name.

Help me to rely on the power of Your Holy Spirit as I carry out this important task. Fill me with Your wisdom and discernment, so that I may be effective in ministering to others. Keep me humble and reliant on Your strength, knowing that it is only through You that I can accomplish what You have called me to do. Thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness and for equipping me for every good work. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
