Some very judgmental comments. Most of us know we start with prayer... all the time.

Why in the world is there so much hatred! This person did just fine in explaining so how about some people that say their "Christians" get back in touch with that! -

Horrible advise! Don't "choose" a Bible topic, ask the Lord what it is He wants the congregation to digest, not something that makes you "inspired". The coming judgment doesn't inspire many, but it is in the truth and that's what sets people free. Find scripture references that support your topic IN CONTEXT!! I want a new Ferrari and I ask but have not yet received... Don't lean on your own power to preach with "authoritative tone" rather depend on the power of God, trust me He doesn't need yours. His power is much stronger. Want to know how to write a sermon? Get on your knees in a quiet place, seek His face. If you exalt them in your own power than you must keep them exalted in your own power. Humble yourself and He will exalt in due time. (1Cor. 2:5, Ro 1:16)

You ought to be ashamed. No one with any respect for Scripture or God would offer such "advice." This is advice only for charlatans. Pure garbage.
