They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while He talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?”
Luke 24:32
The preacher who has lost his anointing has lost the art of preaching.
Whatsoever other talents or abilities he may have and retain– the art of sermon-making, the art of eloquence, the art of great, clear thinking, the art of pleasing an audience — he has lost the art of divine preaching. This anointing makes God’s truth powerful and interesting; it draws, attracts, edifies, convicts and saves.
This same anointing vitalizes God’s revealed truth and makes it life-giving. Just like God’s truth spoken without this anointing is dead.
God, I pray for Your anointing on my life today so that I, too, can bring Your message to other people in a powerful way. Amen
Sir Godfrey Gregg
