one of the greatest privileges of being a preacher...

One of the greatest privileges of being a preacher is that I get to spend a week studying and digging deep into the riches of God's Word so that I can be adequately prepared to herald God's truth authoritatively and accurately.

This morning I spent 4 hours working & finalizing two sermons:

1. Revelation 3:14-22 - The Church of Laodicea — Don't be Lukewarm!

2. Amos 8 - The Worst Kind of Earthly Judgment — A Famine for Spiritual Food!

And God richly nourished my soul.

I echo the words of the prophet Jeremiah. He said: But if I say, "I will not remember Him Or speak anymore in His name," Then in my heart it becomes like a burning fire Shut up in my bones; And I am weary of holding it in, And I cannot endure it (Jer 20:9).
