My First Preaching
If you know me i hate speaking in large groups so its a stretch for me to volinter to preach to about 50 people, the worst part of it was that God told me to do it on forgiveness. Nobody like to forgive those who hurt them but God told me to do it and with a gentle push from him i obeyed. The preaching went really good ( thanks to God), it was really shaort though cause He told me to skip a part of my notes which was like half of what i was going to preach on haha. But after i was done praching, there was a time of ministery and it was awesome alot of people got healed. After the service though a lady went up to me and said that God had given her a dream about me preaching on forgiveness, that was crazy. It really encouraged me because i know now that i was following what God wanted me to do so that was pretty sweet. To tell you the truth i dont think i mind preaching anymore as long as its from God nothing will go out of his purpose and thats exactly where i want to be.
One of the things I have learned is that it doesn't matter how smart you are or how you express yourself if you aren't moving in the spirit then preaching is just a bunch nice words. Ive learned that if you truly want to help and change people you have to listen and obey the Holy Spirit. Thats when crazy stuff happen and i cant wait to be at that point with God!
