Sometimes the message preached is beyond the understanding of the congregation, that is so miserable and the fault of the preacher. Sometimes the message preached is political in content and therefore not the Word of God. The Message preached that is God’s Word and anointed by the Holy Spirit will be effective for the Glory of God.
