“And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:”
1 Corinthians 2:4 KJV
Paul is able to say regarding his preaching the Gospel message, that it was not an attempt to sway people with persuasive arguments but to prove to the listeners, the almighty power of God’s Holy Spirit. For God intended that the hearers’ faith be not established on man’s wisdom but by trusting in His almighty power. All those who share the glorious Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ are to rely on the demonstration of the mighty Holy Spirit and His power. The revelation of Scripture preached in the power of the Spirit is life changing. Preachers today need to quit preaching on the news reports of the day, they may have excellency of speech and great oratorship because they depend on the wisdom of this world, but they lack the demonstration of the Spirit and the Resurrection Power of the Holy Spirit. Preachers need to preach that God raised Jesus to life! And since God’s Spirit of Resurrection lives in us, He will also raise our dying body to life by the same Spirit that breathes life into us! Let’s believe in the demonstration of the Holy Spirit as we preach the Gospel and see Resurrection Power at work! Thank You Holy Spirit!
