How Do We Proclaim Christ When His Word Puts a Target on Our Back?

Jeremiah 20:7–13 gives us a prophet at his breaking point, having been mocked, pressured, betrayed, and tempted to stay silent, yet unable to hold back the Word burning in his bones. This sermon walks through Jeremiah’s struggle and shows how God meets His weary witnesses: not with scolding, but with strength. In the middle of fear, ridicule, and opposition, the Lord stands beside His people as a mighty warrior, already working for their deliverance. This message is for anyone who has felt the weight of speaking Christ in a world that resists Him, and for every believer who needs the reminder that God Himself upholds those who carry His Word.
