A God Called Man




It is a blessing to be called of God Almighty to preach the Gospel, and Christ Crucified. It is a sad day we are living in when men never mention conviction, burdens lifted, or peace when surrendering to His will. We are in a day of some deciding to go into the occupation of clergy. Some want to see if it works out - then they compromise, deceive to keep the paychecks rolling in, and lead a people into a ditch - both being blind and all.

I got a call on the phone today around 8:15 or so, and heard through tears on the other end a voice that relayed HE had been unable to sleep, was now able - had been under a burden, and now it was rolled away - had the weight of the world lifted off of HIM after surrendering to preach with a God sent calling and burden - and I say AMEN to a newly God called man.
I was in a WCU dorm room listening to some tapes of Maze Jackson, and singing when God came into the room with conviction greater than that of when I was lost. I knew what He wanted and their between my bed and garbage can surrendered to His will to Preach the Word. I remember making sure my heritage was true by settling for myself the truth of Bible Versions, Baptist traditions, etc. I am without apology a KJV man, a Baptist to most extents, a Blood bought, born again Christian. That was a great night for me, I relive most weeks in my head.
I would desire all prayers for Him and ME as I would never want to give unsound advice or council. Lord help me with the responsibility of aiding your man as he embarks on a new, exciting, God filled and blessed life. God hedge Him and use Him for thy Honor and Glory all in Jesus precious name.
Mike Moore gave me the greatest advice of any man at that 19 year old age, "Preach what God gives you to preach, and then make a bee-line for Calvary". Amen and Amen
