The world today groans under the weight of many crushing problems, but it’s not intellectuals, presidents, or political parties who have the solutions. The rescue agents are born-again believers who fall under the “great commission,” and that’s you. This command for you to go into the whole world is not given by One who would leave you an orphan. God will equip you, but you must do it His way.
Once you’re a believer, God appoints you to two roles immediately: One as the receiver of God’s word; one as the deliverer of God’s word. Many faithful men and women have little problem understanding the first role. They see themselves as student-learners who must grow in God’s word and get enlightenment by the Holy Spirit. Many faithfully fulfill the biblical prerequisites of prayer and preparation, and they become quite good at understanding the scriptures. Over the years, the Holy Spirit guides them into deeper and deeper insights into God’s word. It is as they move into the role of deliverer of God’s word that they have problems. Many people will “shut” them out; the delivery has failed to adopt a biblically required role change.
To be effective in this new role, God’s messengers must “Speak with God’s Voice”. This means they must speak authoritatively and prophetically. These biblical prerequisites have been very much misunderstood and abandoned, leaving the message from God’s word a mere man-made endeavor. God may bless this type of message, but the only way to guarantee God’s anointing is to deliver it His way with His voice. This book explains in detail how these scriptural requirements are put into effect. Remember! The power of the Holy Spirit is available to ALL believers, but it is not automatic.
A dear evangelical preacher of more than thirty years, who pastors a church on the New York – Pennsylvania border, read this book and made the following comment:
“I would highly recommend this book as required reading for every minister and ministerial student. It is one of the most practical cries for, and description of, ‘anointed preaching’ that I have read. For too long the church has tried to dazzle people with new music, new technologies and methods, and missed the high calling of preaching the Word under the power of the Holy Spirit! Thanks, Louie, for your inspiring words!”
