Word of Lord I preached:  I  AM READY :

I..To hear and obey :  These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.  Therefore many of them believed; also of honourable women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few.  But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was preached of Paul at Berea, they came thither also, and stirred up the people. Acts 17:11-13.
 

II. To Answer: But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that ask you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear. 1 Peter 3:15 
 

III. To Preach : So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also. Romans 1:15
 

IV. For every good work: Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work  Titus 3:1 ., Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. James 1:27 .  Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men. 1 Thessalonians 5:14.. Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;  That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate; 1 Timothy 6:17,18. 

V. Die for Him : Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus. Acts 21:13.
 

Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, …. they that were ready went in with him ……. Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. Matthew 25:1 -13.  Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour…Matthew 24:44  .Are you ready?
