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?

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. God has a specialized position to serve Him that He designed according to His purpose for you. Think about that for a while. God has made you special and has a divine purpose for your life. His purpose and plan is far greater than we understand. When we walk in our own plan outside of  the will of God, we are not walking worthy. His plan is best. It is our job to follow His plan for our life.

Simply put, God is calling. Consider these Bible verses about being called: Continue Reading…

How To Become A Man Of God

Becoming A Man Of God

And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually.
~ 2 Kings 4:9

As I travel and preach, people say many things. Some good, some bad. I have had people write of sermons because of disagreement. Yet, I have had people make great comments. One of the greatest comments I have received was from a white haired lady in her 80′s. She said I preached the way she remembers as a young lady and that I reminded her of the Old Time Bible Thumping @#!*% Fire Evangelists. Praise the Lord! That’s what works.

Yet, being dramatic, expressive, loud, or whatever else is considered “hard” does not make one a man of God. Men of God are all different, and it is the Lord that uses a man that is yielded to the Holy Ghost. Not personality, but the Power of God.  To be a man of God means that we have our dependence and strength “of God”. Continue Reading…

What Is Keeping You From Seeing Revival?

This is a question that every born again child of God should ask themselves. What is keeping me from seeing revival? Is God still all powerful? Did He give us His Holy Spirit to empower us? Has God lost His Power? See, the questions of why we don’t have the Power of God does not lie in the hands of God, but in the hearts of His people. I have been preaching long enough to know this

People want revival, they just don’t want it bad enough

That’s exactly right. I don’t know of a true born again child of God that would say, “I don’t want the power of God”. So if, God is all powerful, have given His Spirit, and never loses His Power, then why don’t we see great works for God? Continue Reading…
