Revival

I went to a Revival to support my Pastor as she was asked to preach on the Business of God. I was very blessed to go this event. It was my first and I can tell you , you feel alive again. You actually feel like you can be a servant to God and that you are worthy of his praise. As I sat and listen to the different speakers speak, I got a better understanding of the word of God and all he has in place for me. I also learn to be obedient and have patience. "dont worry"... I want to thank our Pastor for inviting us to come and be part of such a wonderful event. Our Pastor is Dr. Maythia Henriquez-Abney and our church is Warriors for Christ. We are in Tobyhnna, Pa and if you want to hear the wonderful word this Pastor gives come and see her sometime . She's awesome .

What is a Preacher?

The preacher is seperated by God for the specific work of teaching the gospel and is a man or woman who from one side of his or her nature takes in the truth from God and from the other side gives out that truth to men. He or she deals with God in behalf of God. The truth must not be mechanically expressed. The preacher must not be a mere machine, he or she must be a real man or woman-- a good woman or man, full of the Holy spirit and faith. The effect of such a life and such preaching will be that people will listen. and many people will be added to the Lord...(Acts 11:24)

What is Preaching ?

Preaching is the proclamation of the good news of salvation through man to men. The proclamation of any kind of message other than the gospel message, which is the truth of God as revealed in the bible and especially in Jesus Christ, is not preaching. The message of the very truth of God through man to men- that is preaching......

Practice The Disciplines Matthew 16:18

In addition to studying the bible, preachers ought to be regularly engaged in a life of spiritual discipline that keep the soul well fed and nurtured. The anointing comes from being in the presence of God(having a heart of God always). Spending time in prayer corporately, with a prayer partner, with your spouse and alone with just you and God. Periods of fasting accompanied by readings from devotional books as well as the bible. Listening to other preachers. If you are a preacher or Pastor preaching and teaching on a regular basis we do not realize how much we need to hear a sermon preached by someone else until we find ourselves sitting like empty pitchers before a full fountain waiting and needing to be filled.
