How do we know spirit-filled preaching is true?

The validity of spirit-filled preaching can be gauged by its unwavering focus on Christ and its ability to impact lives. As Mary reflects on God’s mercy and great deeds in Luke 1, we see that true preaching aligns with Scripture, glorifying God and benefiting His people. Authentic preaching leads to spiritual regeneration, as evidenced by transformed lives and hearts that yearn to exalt the Savior. Furthermore, when preaching stirs the heart and leads to a greater reverence and love for Christ, it serves as evidence of the Holy Spirit's work within it.
