Preparing the Way


II Timothy 4:1-2

Christ shall judge the quick and the dead,
For appearing in His kingdom as the head;
Preach the Word, be especially prepared,
Some who would rather see you despaired;
Reprove, rebuke and exhort with patience,
A time will come them with no endurance;
Only greed of their own lust will they hear,
Then turn away for truth is what they fear;
Anything you say they consider as fables,
Endure afflictions, not to cause fumbles;
Do the work God in being an evangelist,
Within a fool-proof ministry as you enlist,
We know not the exact time or even date,
But that does not mean to just sit and wait;
Prepare ourselves as the battle to begin,
Waging war against all the forces of sin;
You have your armor and your sword,
For it is in the Bible of God's Holy Word;
So go out and preach to even the scum,
In knowing not the day or hour to come.
