Jeremiah 1 16 says that I will utter my judgments against them touching all their wickedness who have forsaken me and have burned incense unto
Other gods and worship the works of their own hands
Therefore there they'll therefore gird up thy loins and arise and speak unto them all that I command thee be not dismayed at their faces
Lest I confound thee before them look when you're preaching the Word of God
You got to get up and when you see that face, it's going
You got to still preach you got to still preach even though you're ripping on the golden pants
You know or you're ripping on the golden video games golden eye or whatever you're playing. Okay?
Never played that one either. All right, so it says before me behold
I have made thee this day defense city and an iron pillar and brass and walls
against the whole land
against the kings of Judah against the princes thereof against the priests thereof and against the people of the land and they
shall fight against thee
That's what's gonna that's what happens
Sometimes when you're preaching God's Word people are just gonna fight against you because they don't like what they're hearing. They're despising
Prophesying they're despising the preaching of God's Word and as God's people we should never despise the preaching of God's Word
It says for I am with thee saith the Lord to deliver thee
Now when you men when you get up and preach don't hold back, you know, obviously you have your place
Where you know meddling in people's lives and things like that
You should kind of take some caution when it comes that especially if you're not the pastor of the church and you just get up
And and you're getting into people's lives. Okay meddling is what that's called
But you know, sometimes God's Word is gonna meddle in your life anyway, and whether that person means to or not. So
But a good preacher won't hold back his preaching. He's not gonna spare the pants. He's not gonna spare the video games
He's not gonna spare the candy crush or whatever, you know, and I know I'm just using a couple dumb examples, but it's true
It's true. You can't hold back those things
