It’s Sunday Morning. Here’s a little motivation for preachers before you enter your pulpit from the Word of God.
1 Timothy 5:17-19 states
The elders who rule well are to be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who work hard at preaching and teaching. 18 For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle the ox while he is threshing,” and “The laborer is worthy of his wages.” 19 Do not receive an accusation against an elder except on the basis of two or three witnesses.
Note in verse 17 that Paul’s intention in writing this is so that those who serve in the church as Elders/Pastors to “work hard at preaching and teaching.” Verse 18 tips us that he’s going to give us the reasons for this with the use of the word “for” which shows the motivation. I want to look at one of the motivation for this Sunday and Lord willing another next Sunday.
