Sermon and God's people
Holy Spirit when he delivers sermon through me, often says "You should grasp God's word and understand. It should not be let go as a Bouncer ball ducked by batsman during a Cricket match" During worship time if you are uanble to understand the meaning of the sermon, sit with the LORD in your personal prayer to get the understanding.
If you duck and leave it as bouncer, whose loss is it? Isn't it like the seeds that were strewn by way side and eaten by birds? For what reason Sermon is there in congregation? Isn't it for the God's people to understand the word of God and utilise it?
One can take only one verse and preach for days. Also in one sermon there can be many scripture references. Preachers, it is not important how you preach. It is important that the people who hear the preaching are benefitted from the sermon. Does the Holy Spirit preach, or your flesh preach?
Jesus during his ministry has told same teachings in 2 or 3 places. However these were delivered for the benefit of people who were there. He did not preach about the same thing to different people in same day. He understood the needs of the people and delivered his sermons. In some places directly and in many places with Parables.
Holy Spirit knows the needs of the people coming to that service. In each worship understanding the need of the people from the Holy Spirit and preaching it is the right way. If a preacher does that, they are doing the will of God. Other sermons will go as bouncers. For this reason I am not in agreement with one sermon for many worship services in a day.
In all the worship time, don;t follow it as a law to preach. Sometimes utilise the time to sing and praise the LORD.
Recently Holy Spirit led me to a church for an evening service. When I arrived the service did not start and I saw the congregation members in prayer. I saw the Church Pastor getting ready for preaching.
I also gave myself to Holy Spirit and started praying. Holy Spirit revealed me something and asked me to tell to the Pastor. I obeyed the LORD and said what Holy Spirit revealed me. He was little surpised. If Holy Spirit leads like this some may not obey stating that "What if the Pastor thinks who is this fellow to come and say LORD told me this?"
On that day, I obeyed
After few minutes the worship starts. After the worship the sermon heading was much related to what Holy Spirit revealed me and asked me to tell the Pastor. So preachers should be very careful what Jesus wants to preach to the people. When the Spirit of God takes over a sermon, the words become imperishable seed.
May the LORD teach you and lead you further. Amen
