How to actively share God's word?
How can we actively proclaim God's word like the "women who proclaim the news"?

The Swift Chorus in Psalm 68:11

“The Lord gives the command; the women who proclaim the good news are a great host.”

• God Himself initiates the proclamation.

• The women respond promptly, spreading His victory report far and wide.

• Scripture presents their activity as normal, vibrant, and essential to the advance of divine truth.


Why Their Example Matters Today

• The same God still commands: “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.” (Mark 16:15)

• Spirit-filled proclamation is not gender-restricted; it is obedience to the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20).

• Their eagerness models wholehearted devotion that silences apathy and timidity (Romans 1:16).


Practical Ways to Proclaim the Word

1. Speak it

• Share clear gospel testimonies in daily conversation (Acts 4:20).

• Memorize key verses—then weave them naturally into discussions (Psalm 119:11).

2. Teach it

• Lead or assist in Bible studies, Sunday school, and home gatherings (Titus 2:3-5).

• Disciple new believers one-on-one, opening Scripture together (Colossians 3:16).

3. Write it

• Utilize letters, blogs, social media posts, or texts saturated with Scripture (Jeremiah 30:2).

• Aim for clarity, accuracy, and warmth; avoid jargon that clouds the gospel.

4. Sing it

• Join or form worship teams and choirs, highlighting lyric fidelity to biblical truth (Ephesians 5:19).

• Introduce songs that directly quote Scripture, reinforcing memorization.

5. Serve with it

• Pair acts of mercy—meals, childcare, visitation—with spoken hope from God’s Word (1 Peter 4:10-11).

• Offer Scripture cards or read aloud during hospital or prison outreach (Isaiah 55:10-11).

6. Model it

• Live holy, joyful lives that authenticate the message (Philippians 2:14-16).

• Practice visible repentance and reconciliation, proving the gospel’s power (Matthew 5:16).


Guarding the Message

• Hold to sound doctrine, refusing to dilute or twist Scripture (2 Timothy 4:2-3).

• Test every teaching against the whole counsel of God (Acts 17:11).

• Lean on faithful pastors, elders, and historic creeds for accountability (Hebrews 13:7).


Fuel for Courage

• Remember God’s presence: “I am with you always.” (Matthew 28:20)

• Rely on the Spirit’s power, not personal eloquence (1 Corinthians 2:4-5).

• Anticipate eternal reward: “Those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars.” (Daniel 12:3)


A Continual Echo

The women of Psalm 68 formed a “great host,” yet they were only the beginning of an ever-spreading chorus. Each believer today joins that chorus by opening the mouth, pen, melody, and life to declare Christ’s triumph. The command is still fresh; the field is still wide; the news is still good.
