There are people we could describe as "unbelieving believers." They are sound in doctrine but have no trust. They preach what they call the gospel, but it is lifeless, just a statement of their accepted view. When a man describes the beauty of a lovely girl, he can do so quite clinically. But if he is in love with her, then he makes her sound like a very alive person, worthy of drawing him into a relationship.
Preaching must in itself be a believing act, fully reliant on God. The truth of Christ is the seed we must sow. But without faith it is seed that has never been fertilized. The gospel won't germinate, spring up, blossom or produce fruit unless it is preached with faith. To hold fast to the faith once delivered to the saints (see jude-3) is very important, but it is not sufficient. Faith is fruitful, life generating - "by believing you may have life in his name" (John 20:31). It is a vibrant, living process. You are believing, you are receiving, you are knowing, you are seeing, you are abiding in Him. Praise God! God bless you. REINHARD BONNKE

John 20:31 - But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

God Bless you all.
 
Since you mentioned a woman...

Soul comes alives when it meet someone or anything worth of the painting of his/her feelings or devote attention.

You can see bunches of pictures, but you do love those ones you know PERSONALY or have seen so vividly, that there's nothing hindering to block your way.

The spirit of the soul comes alive when he/she sees what they were eager to see or feel one day and, you are right when saying there are some who preach without full conviction (but their doing the job the Lord asked, same way those kids a man had and only went to HIS field, though reluctantly).

What Jesus said about those two son who were asked to work in the FATHER'S field?

One said: "Yes! I go" But lied and went stray away.
The other say: "I don't want to go" but, on his way, he went to do HIS FATHER WILL...

What do you think are DOING THEIR FATHER'S WILL? Those who criticize and see somebody's faults (which are or could be many) or those who relectanly or selfishly preach the Good News?

I just belong to those who go and went my way, but I want to PLEASE MY FATHER'S WILL.

May "these" reluctant ones be filled with the Spirit of GOD and the Power of HIs conviction.

Amén!
