  • How can a person know if God is calling them to be a preacher? Throughout the epistles, the apostle Paul repeatedly refers to his personal call to preach the gospel. Paul had a dramatic encounter with God on the road to Damascus, as recorded in Acts 9. But is God’s call always as dramatic as what Paul experienced?
    In this episode, Dr. David K. Bernard explains what it means to be called to ministry while offering practical guidance on responding to that call.
    If you are interested in obtaining copies of the books Dr. Bernard references in this episode, you can purchase both "So You [May] Feel Your Call to Preach" and "I Think I'm Called: What Do I Do Now?" at PentecostalPublishing.com.
    You can listen to the audio version of this episode on Apple, Spotify, Amazon, and other podcast platforms.

    While we're working in the work of God, we must be persistent in seeking God's will and guidance. Eventually he will give is clear directions.

    Just today I realized that not all Apostolic Pentecostals believe in an audible voice or visions, let alone dream dreams. I found that disheartening to say the least.

      Gods primary method of speaking is through,
      Bible
      Pastor
      Holy Spirit
      we do believe in visions and dreams it’s just not the primary method God uses today. In Old Testament they had some scrolls but not the complete Bible. Abraham most likely didn’t have any scrolls or biblical books. It’s a no brainer that God would speak to Him in visions, dreams, audibly.

      ​​@@Clicked_whopperpersonally I don't believe God speaks any less in visions than he did back then. Just because I haven't had a vision doesn't mean others haven't

    What about women who are called? Men are not the only ones called by God

      Women aren’t supposed to do ministry in the sense of preaching.

    JESUS will tell you Himself, signs and wonders will be done through you, 2 holy ghost filled Bishops of the faith will tell you and ordain you and the devils will remind you.
    What God says, so shall it be.
    Impossible for JESUS to lie.

    You didn't exactly. With your speech in this video, you present to human science what emerges from your human theology, what it means to research God. That's why, according to your scholastic theology, you broke the Holy Scriptures with the words I quote: if you wait for God to call you to be a preacher or a minister, it will never happen. Now read what the Holy Scriptures say: And He appointed one for apostles, another for prophets, a third for evangelists, and a fourth for pastors and teachers,
    Ephesians 4:11.
    Why, he is not recognized by the one who recommends himself, but he is beaten by the one whom the Lord recommends.
    2 Corinthians 10:18
