AI: His Word & Anointing are Enough!

I’ve been disturbed and disappointed to hear of so many pastors resorting to using AI to write their sermons. It’s up to individuals if they choose to use this platform for their projects but to exchange the anointing of God for artificial intelligence is heart breaking! 

Anything that we have been called by God to minister should flow from the Holy Spirit, through us to touch the world. Our messages should be fully inspired and backed by the Word of God. His Word is alive and has the power to touch and transform lives! His anointing destroys every yoke of bondage!

Though I understand how much easier it is to give AI a subject matter and allow it to produce a seemingly beautiful and well thought out message…the truth is it’s powerless. AI doesn't know the heart of God, it has no soul or relationship with the King of kings and the Lord of lords! The blood of Jesus was never shed for a platform but only for the children of the Creator of the Universe! 

There are even Christian books and worship songs being written and produced by this same dead process!

2 Timothy 3:5 (KJV) Having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

Nothing compares to the necessary time spent seeking the Lord for His direction and studying His Word for the message needed to touch the lives we are ministering to at that exact moment.

Proverbs 15:23 (KJV) A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth, and a word spoken in due season — how good it is!

There are so many short cuts the enemy provides that seem to be enough at the time…but only Jesus is enough! Seeking His face, studying His Word, worshipping Him, drawing close enough to hear His voice, asking the precious Holy Spirit to fill and anoint us, then doing His will and following His lead…all else is a false pursuit of our own accolades. A vain shortcut to what only discipline and total commitment will truly provide. 

His Word and anointing are enough!!

Isaiah 10:27 (KJV) And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.

John 14:10-26 (NLT) Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words I speak are not my own, but my Father who lives in me does his work through me. Just believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. Or at least believe because of the work you have seen me do. “I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father. You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father. Yes, ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it. “If you love me, obey my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you. He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth. The world cannot receive him, because it isn’t looking for him and doesn’t recognize him. But you know him, because he lives with you now and later will be in you. No, I will not abandon you as orphans—I will come to you. Soon the world will no longer see me, but you will see me. Since I live, you also will live. When I am raised to life again, you will know that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. Those who accept my commandments and obey them are the ones who love me. And because they love me, my Father will love them. And I will love them and reveal myself to each of them.” Judas (not Judas Iscariot, but the other disciple with that name) said to him, “Lord, why are you going to reveal yourself only to us and not to the world at large?” Jesus replied, “All who love me will do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with each of them. Anyone who doesn’t love me will not obey me. And remember, my words are not my own. What I am telling you is from the Father who sent me. I am telling you these things now while I am still with you. But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you.
