All of us who are preachers–beginning with me–ought to hear these words from H.B. Charles. Use them to focus on prayer as prepare to preach this weekend:
“. . . . So I pray before I preach. Prayer humbles me, clarifies my focus, and sets my heart on the sacred task of preaching the Word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ.”
