Tozer: God’s present voice

Feast of Luke the Evangelist
Meditation:
He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
—2 Corinthians 3:6 (NIV)

Quotation:
A church can wither as surely under the ministry of soulless Bible exposition as it can where no Bible at all is given. To be effective the preacher’s message must be alive; it must alarm, arouse, challenge; it must be God’s present voice to a particular people.
... A. W. Tozer (1897-1963), Of God and Men, Harrisburg, Penn.: Christian Publications, Inc., 1960, p. 24 (see the book)

Quiet time reflection:
Lord, fill my minister friends _____ and _____ with Your Spirit.
