Standing Behind The Plow

In today’s message, Pastor Bruce shares from 1 Kings 19 about the call of Elisha and what it really means to “stand behind the plow.” Through stories of hard work and country life, he reminds us that God often calls people who are faithfully working right where they are, not waiting for perfect conditions or recognition. The heart of the message is that true anointing—God’s unmistakable presence and power—doesn’t depend on talent or outward appearance, but on a willingness to work, seek God, and surrender to His calling.

As we prepare for a season of worship and prayer, this sermon invites us to refocus and pursue God’s anointing above all else. No matter our background or past mistakes, we are encouraged to lay aside distractions and excuses, step out in faith, and trust God to direct our steps. The invitation is clear: get behind the plow He’s given you, seek His presence, and let Him work through you to make a difference that lasts.
