II Timothy 4:2
I have been spending some time in prayer and preparation for this coming Sunday (Lord willing). I want to encourage the preachers as they are looking toward preaching! Preaching acts as dynamite that clears and cleans the landscape of both the heart and the mind it feeds our faith and fuels our fire. The preaching of the word of God brings comfort and conviction simultaneously. It is a fountain that flows with the power of God when the man of God desires to be filled with the Holy Spirit and to be a vessel; a clean funnel for Almighty God to pour out His message to all who come.
And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. I Corinthians 2:1-5
Preach The Word!
