Spurgeon presents prayer, preparation, and spiritual readiness as the foundation for preaching. It calls believers to trust God for both message and speech, emphasizing that intercession strengthens the speaker and audience alike. The address urges speakers to advance with disciplined faith against false doctrine, worldliness, and sin, avoiding careless presentation while refusing paralysis from excessive responsibility. It also highlights choosing timely, weighty truths and meditating deeply so the subject itself benefits the

Rapids,Michigan 49506  \nDigitized by the Internet Archivein 2022 with funding fromKahle/Austin Foundation  \n# Introduction\n\nMay al the prayers which have already been offeredup be answered abundantly and speedily!May moreof such pleading follow that in which we have united!The most memorable part of past Conferences hasbeen the holy concert of believing prayer;and I trustwe are not falling off in that respect,but growing yetmore fervent and prevalent in intercession.On hisknees'the believer is invincible.  \nI am greatly concerned about this Address for manymonths before it comes on:assuredly it is to me the childof many prayers.I should like to be able to speak wellon so worthy an occasion,wherein the best of speechmay well be enlisted;but I desire to be,as our brother'sprayer has put it,absolutely in the Lord's hands,in thismatter as well as in every other.I would be willing tospeak with stammering tongue if God's purpose couldso be answered more fully;and I would even gladlylose all power of speech if,by being famished as tohuman words,you might feed the better on that spiritualmeat which is to be found alone in Him,who is theincarnate Word of God.  \nI may say to you,as speakers,that I am persuaded weshould prepare ourselves with diligence,and try to doour very best in our great Master's service.I think I  \nhave read that when a handful of lion-like Greeks heldthe pass against the Persians,a spy,who came to seewhat they were doing,went back and told the great kingthat they were poor creatures,for they were busied incombing their hair.The despot saw things in a truelight when he learned that a people who could adjusttheir hair before battle had set a great value on theirheads,and would not bow them to a coward's death.f we are very careful to use our best language whenproclaiming eternal truths,we may leave our opponentsto infer that we are still more careful of the doctrinesthemselves.We must not be untidy soldiers when agreat fight is before us,for that would look likedespondency.Into the battle against false doctrine,and worldliness,and sin,we advance without a fear asto the ultimate issue;and therefore our talk should notbe that of ragged passion,but of well-consideredprinciple.It is not ours to be slovenly,since we lookto be triumphant.Do your work well at this time,thatall men may see that you are not going to be driven fromit.The Persian said,when on another occasion he sawa handful of warriors advancing,\"That little handful ofmen!Surely,they cannot mean fighting!\"But onewho stood by said,\"Yes,they do,for they haveburnished their shields,and brightened their armour.\"Men mean business,depend upon it,when they are notto be hurried into disorder.It was a way amongst theGreeks,when they had a bloody day before them,toshow the stern joy of warriors by being well adorned.I think,brethren,that when we have great work to dofor Christ,and mean doing it,we shall not go to thepulpit or the platform to say the first thing that comes tothe lip.If we speak for Jesus we ought to speak at  \nour best,though,even then,men are not killed by theglitter of shields,nor by the smoothness of a warrior'shair;but a higher power is needed to cut through coatsof mail.To the God of armies I look up.May Hedefend the right!But with no careless step do Iadvance to the front;neither does any doubt possessme.We are feeble,but the Lord our God is mighty,andthe battle is the Lord's,rather than ours.  \nOnly one fear is upon me to a certain degree.I amanxious that my deep sense of responsibility may notlessen my efficiency.A man may feel that he ought ","cbCaihA0vdXtWiex","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihA0vdXtWiex","pdf",3315999,82,"English","# Introduction\n## Prayer as the foundation\n##
