Fully accomplish your ministry.—2 Tim. 4:5.

 

One way to accomplish our ministry more fully is by improving our skills in the preaching work. (Prov. 1:5; 1 Tim. 4:13, 15) How privileged we are that Jehovah allows us to be his “fellow workers”! (1 Cor. 3:9) When you “make sure of the more important things” and focus on the Christian ministry, you will “serve Jehovah with rejoicing.” (Phil. 1:10; Ps. 100:2) As one of God’s ministers, you can be confident that he will give you the power you need to accomplish your ministry no matter what challenges or limitations you may face. (2 Cor. 4:1, 7; 6:4) Whether your circumstances allow you to have a small or a great share in witnessing, you can “have cause for rejoicing” when you are whole-souled in your ministry. (Gal. 6:4) When you fully accomplish your ministry, you show your love for Jehovah and for your fellow man. “By doing this you will save both yourself and those who listen to you.”—1 Tim. 4:16. w19.04 6 ¶15; 7 ¶17

If we overcome our challenges in the ministry , often with the help of others our ministry can be so fulfilling even in these changed circumstances .

Interesting how Timothy said in a few verses before - Kingdom:2 Preach the word; be at it urgently in favorable times and difficult times; reprove, reprimand, exhort, with all patience and art of teaching.  Sometimes we need to reprove reprimand , exhort and have patience with -ourselves- as we go through the process of learning the art of teaching.  We all must do the best we can no matter how much or how little it is and just not give up.

How do we fully accomplish our ministry? By improving our skills in the preaching work. Also when we pay close attention to the instructions we receive at our meetings and apply the suggestions. We show love for Jehovah and our fellow man.

[Ishaya]

Proverbs 1:5 mentions acquiring skillful direction.this is timely as the covid restriction has seriously limited preaching oppurtunities,and alot of brothers are complaining about not knowing how to stay active in preaching.indeed,this can really dampen one's zeal for the ministry.

however we can still fully accomplish our ministry by making efforts to acquire skill direction and useful ideas from experienced publishers and pioneers.
