The Words of Man and the Words of God

Wow, its seems ages since I last got into my blog. Sorry for not updating this. Anyway it has been a good soul searching experience even while ministering to many others around the globe.
Ministering God's word to people around the world is an awesome task. The Lord will hold us accountable for every word we utter in His name. This is why I am worried many times tha I am not guilty of preaching my own message other than what I believe is given by the Lord. For many years now I have been trying very hard to discern what is of the Lord and what is not. It doesn't always work the way I thought it should. Thankfully the Lord is gracious in allowing me to experience His assurance by using brothers and sisters to confirmed the words spoken. There were many that came and said that they really felt the Lord speaking to them
Just a couple of days ago I think I failed, because I was too self conscious and men conscious. In order not to offend men I decided to do something else rather than what I thought the Lord had given me originally. The thought was aweful. I knew I had failed Him since it was more my words than the words of God. I am still living through the consequences of guilt.
Do pray that the Lord will us those of us who are preaching to be bold in proclaiming the word of God, not to please men but to glorify Him and to save men and women who neede to hear Him.
The Lord has been gracious and forgiving but I know that I mustn't take it for granted. Men and women need to hear the word of God not mine. It is wonderful when we hear men and women saying "The Lord has spoken" and not just, "A good message".
The last weekend was awesome where the Lord met with individuals during a church weekend retreat. The blessing of God Almighty was upon us and our brothers and sisters in the Lord. We praise Him for His incredible goodness.
Do write to us whenever time permits. Have agreat day.

IN Him
