2nd Corinthians 12:9, “And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”
It is obvious when a preacher is avoiding being offensive, and I want to walk out and leave. America is going to Hell, literally, because of lame preachers who are afraid of offending people. If the shoe fits, where it! I recommend that every young preacher NEVER use a sermon outline. SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES (John 5:39) and let God speak to your soul, and then preach to others, sharing what God taught you.
A faithful sermon is not a performance, it is the outflow of your soul to others!!! A true preacher loses himself in the sermon and isn't concerned about what people think. My goal when I preach in an article is not that people would walk away saying, “That was a great sermon or article.” I failed if that is all you get out of my preaching. My goal is ALWAYS for others to walk away saying, “BOY, WE HAVE A GREAT GOD!!!” I want you to go away praising Jesus! I want people to get saved!
I want believers to become better soul-winners! I want the Holy Spirit to make a difference through me. By myself, I can do NOTHING (John 15:5). I want to be weak enough, so that God can be glorified through my labors for Him. When I am strong, then am I weak, because God resists the proud, talented and able. My failures are God's opportunities to use me for His glory. God is looking for a few weak men!!!

The devils tremble when the weakest saint gets down upon his knees to pray. My weakness is God's strength to work through my life. Therefore, I am only as able for God's use as I am broken, weak and disabled. 2nd Corinthians 12:9, “And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”
