Expository Preaching Changed My Life

Over the past few months, I was led to write articles about preaching. We covered Topical and Textual sermon styles. Today, I want to write about Expository preaching. I must admit, I was hesitant to write on the subject of expository preaching because I feel inadequate. The reason is because I am still in the process of learning how to successfully preach in an expository manner. This style of preaching, if obtained and preaching while full of the Holy Ghost will yield fruit that remains. Continue Reading…

So, How Do I Find The Calling Of God In My Life?

162041_3528

In the past few posts we looked into becoming a man of God and the calling of a man of God. Today, we are going to ask, “How do I find the calling of God in my life?”

Does God have a purpose for my life? Yes He does. He has a calling for every born again child of God. This is something every believer must consider in their life if they are to be the person God created them to be. Consider this Bible verse about being called:

I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
~ Ephesians 4:1 (Emphasis Added)

The idea of a vocation doesn’t mean a job. Rather, it has the idea of a specialized job. A job or purpose specific to an individual.

1140201_90533351

When I first started preaching (16 years old), I was a very basic preacher. I had heart and  I tried to use the Bible as much as possible. God blessed, and I remember the first time I preached, someone got saved. I remember how happy I was to be used by God. I remember that I began to grow as a preacher, and God continued to bless. I believe God wants to use His people, and if someone steps up, He’ll bless their efforts. Though I was used by God, I find that I have changed in my style of preaching. As God teaches me, I find the constant item that never changes, His Word. It is mainly because of His Word we find God blessing our efforts! Continue Reading…

The High Cost of Revival

Cost of Revival

Everything in life has a price. Food, clothing, housing, fun, sickness, needs, wants, etc. There is nothing free in life. Someone somewhere has to pay for the things we receive. Even the things that are given to us had to be paid for by the giver. Continue Reading…
