We cannot preach with Holy Spirit power unless we preach the Word. He is committed to the Word.
He is not just a sweet influence or the gentle ambiance of a church building, but He is the living link
between God and the Word. That is His eternal association. When we preach the Word, the Spirit is in it, in the Gospel.
By that Gospel we say “Let there be light, and there is light breaking like dawn on people hearing us. The Spirit acts when the Word is spoken. Holy Ghost preaching is not just passionate, but creative, The Spirit was the operator when God spoke at the beginning, and His work on earth when the Word is spoken has always been creative.
Men come alive through the Spirit-Word, they are born again by His creative work. No preaching of our own, however brilliant, brings miracles, but the Spirit belongs the Word and the Word belongs the Spirit, charged with all the energies seen from the day of Creation.
The Divine purpose in Holy Ghost preaching is nothing less than the miraculous. God bless you.
