Success in the Ministry, Part 1
September 6, 2016
The world has a mentality in order to be successful you gotta step on people to get ahead. However for the Christian, success in ministry is obedience to the leading of the Holy Spirit. The Apostle Paul was mighty in the ministry because he was sensitive to Gods guiding. This practical and yet often difficult practice for us, because of self-dependency. Pastor Jeff is in Romans chapter 15 beginning at verse 17, in the study titled, “Success in the Ministry.”

Matthew Henry said, “"The joy of the Lord will arm us against the assaults of our spiritual enemies and put our mouths out of taste for those pleasures with which the tempter baits his hooks."

Pastor Jeff wraps up his study titled, “Hope, Joy and Peace” from Romans chapter 15.

Man has been searching out God ever since we lost fellowship with Him in the Garden of Eden. Unfortunately, instead of seeking to find God, man looked to religion, and other ungodly practices.

It’s only in this that we will be able to truly have fellowship with each other and God. This is the conclusion to the message, “To Be Like Him.”
