Why is it important for preachers to depend on God for their message?

The sermon explains that a preacher cannot find or deliver a message without God's assistance. Paul, in 1 Corinthians 2, states that he did not come with clever words but relied on the power of the Spirit. This illustrates that true preaching is a demonstration of God's power, not human eloquence. The effectiveness of the message is contingent upon the Holy Spirit making it clear and impactful in the hearts of listeners. Thus, reliance on God is essential for maintaining the integrity of the gospel ministry.
