For nearly two years, General Superintendent Thomas E. Trask has delivered a weekly video "Chat With Pastors." His final Chat included words that are appropriate to all believers. We share just a few of them here:
I have a library full of books ... but there’s no book like the Word of God. ... I admonish you — live in the Word and let the Word live in you.
...
David said, “Thy word have I hid in my heart, that I might not sin against thee” (Psalm 119:11). What is going to keep you pure? What is going to keep any of us pure? What is going to keep us righteous? What is going to keep us holy? What is going to keep us on track? What is going to keep us in balance? I’m here to tell you, it’s going to be the Word of God.
...
How can we minister in spiritual things if we are unspiritual? ... I’m talking about walking in the Spirit, living in the Spirit, and ministering through the enablement of the Spirit. We must have a keen sense of what God is doing. He will give you an awareness of opportunities you’ve never had before — daily, so that you can be the salt and you can be the light that He’s called all of us to be.
... I urge you to walk with the Lord. Walk in the power of His Spirit. Live with the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit so you will be effective. I promise you, on the authority of God’s Word, your ministry will flourish. God will bless.
