Do not be shy about proclaiming the name of Jesus to people you meet in your daily walk of life. You might wait forever if you want to get millions of dollars before holding crusades. Getting one soul saved each day can contribute to thousands accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and personal Saviour within your lifetime.
Define your spiritual diet. Stand firm about the truth, and unfollow or remove anyone who doesn’t preach sound doctrine from God’s Word, lest you be deceived. Above all, take personal responsibility for your spiritual growth by pursuing a deeper intimacy with God daily.
Dear preacher, do not be afraid to preach the truth, even if people forsake you. God didn’t call you to make a name for yourself or to preach messages other people like you to preach. He called you to be faithful, which you must fulfil because you’ll be accountable unto Him in the end.
Blessed are those who hear the Word and obey it, said Jesus. That means Jesus doesn’t want people to just listen to Him but also to do what His Word says. And if you’re going to live like that, you must study the Word and walk in its consciousness.
Go ahead and encourage another fellow with the gospel. You may not know how many days someone’s life can be sustained by you sharing the gospel with him. I think many people who have committed suicide wouldn’t have done that if a preacher was by them.
Because the salvation dimension of God’s grace has appeared to all men, nobody has an excuse to say, “I didn’t hear the gospel, so I didn’t know I have to get born again” before death or on the second coming of Christ.
You cannot have an impactful ministry if you speak like a toddler before people, even if God has anointed you. No! You need divine authority to fuel your charisma to lead and teach God’s people entrusted in your hands.
Those who preach the gospel should live off the gospel. It is Biblical for every preacher to be paid by the church, although some don’t take it. Do you know why? Because some sacrifice their lives just to push the gospel forward. However, it is not wrong if a preacher earns a substantial salary from the church.
Ministry isn’t for lazy people. You must make many sacrifices to keep God’s work moving forward, including financial ones. The higher the level, the higher the price to pay. Be encouraged.
Palm Sunday comes off every Sunday before Easter Sunday in the Christian calendar. And if it has tarried to date, then it must be significant in God’s calendar for all believers to celebrate it.
Don’t give excuses to God for not doing His work, no matter the issues in your life. Even in a tight environment, there is always a way to go about God’s work. Don’t cease asking God for direction when circumstances prove otherwise to what He has placed in your heart to do.
When you neglect your fellowship with God, every other area in your life will begin to decrease in productivity because divine strength will be missing. Labour well in building and maintaining an excellent administrative system in your ministry, and you’ll be free from excessive administrative work distractions.
