Watson preaches about the secret of power lying in recognizing the constant presence of the Holy Spirit, emphasizing the importance of acknowledging His presence in all aspects of our lives and work for God. The Holy Spirit always precedes and accompanies every work of grace, moving through truth and personalities to bring about spiritual transformation. By recognizing the Holy Spirit's presence, we are inspired with energy, definiteness, and a sense of freedom and gladness that nothing else can provide, enabling us to tap into a power above all eloquence and magnetism for gospel purposes.

In this sermon by G.D. Watson, he emphasizes the importance of using appropriate truths from Scripture for the salvation of souls, as the Holy Ghost works through specific truths to convict, regenerate, sanctify, empower, and comfort individuals. While all Scripture is profitable, not all truths are equally essential for salvation. Watson highlights key soul-saving truths such as man's fall, atonement, resurrection, and eternity, stressing the necessity of handling Scripture truth carefully to avoid rendering it ineffective.

G.D. Watson preaches about the abiding secret of power in serving Jesus, emphasizing the willingness to consent to seeming failure for the sake of Christ. He highlights the importance of dying to self in our work, allowing God to receive all the glory and accomplish greater results than we can imagine.

He stresses the need to carry a spirit of 'but if not' in our hearts, facing tests and trials with unwavering faith.

G.D. Watson emphasizes that true revival is primarily the work of the Holy Spirit, and its depth depends on the number of individuals in perfect union with the Spirit. During revival, both good and evil spiritual forces come to a crisis, with Satan opposing the work of grace by influencing believers against it. The Holy Spirit is often grieved by hidden sins and attitudes that hinder revival, such as a critical spirit, fearfulness, self-opinion, reserve with God, self-planning, limited views of Christ's power, and shunning tests of obedience. Watson highlights the importance of complete surrender, teachableness, and obedience to God's leading for a successful revival.

G.D. Watson preaches about the importance of having a personal, fervent, and intimate love for Jesus, emphasizing the need for a deep, passionate, and individual connection with the Lord. He highlights how Jesus desires a pure, personal, and affectionate love from His followers, beyond just religious zeal and orthodoxy. Watson explains that personal love for Jesus involves a sacred fear, child-like familiarity, extreme sensitiveness for His honor, yearning for His dispositions, attachment to His possessions, and a longing for His return in glory.

G.D. Watson preaches on the importance of addressing the 'little foxes' in our lives, representing small shortcomings and blemishes that hinder our spiritual growth and communion with Christ.

The sermon also delves into the mutual ownership between Christ and His saints, highlighting the restoration of the instinct of proprietorship back to God through regeneration and purification from sin, leading to a deep connection with God through Jesus.

G.D. Watson preaches about the intimate and challenging journey of being called to be like Christ, emphasizing the life of crucifixion, humility, and obedience that God demands from His chosen ones. He highlights how the Holy Spirit works uniquely in individuals, leading them through deep mortification, obscurity, and dependence on God to produce precious fruit for His glory. Watson encourages believers to embrace God's sovereign control over their lives, allowing the Holy Spirit to guide and discipline them in ways that may seem puzzling to others but ultimately lead to a deep, personal relationship with God.

G.D. Watson preaches about the various causes of backsliding, emphasizing the importance of recognizing human frailty, imperceptible inroads of Satan, the dangers of looking upon forbidden things, self-management, taking undue liberties, self-confidence, being spoiled by earthly kindness, luxurious living, presumption, focusing on difficulties, harshness of spirit, and lightness of spirit as factors that can lead to a decline in grace and spiritual bondage.

G.D. Watson preaches about remedies for heart wanderings, emphasizing the importance of great self-abasement before God, determination to get right at any cost, looking to Jesus alone for deliverance and comfort, never yielding to discouragement, constant sorrow for sin, making failures occasions for higher ascent, self-denial, spiritual industry, perseverance, independent obedience to God, keeping the mind stayed upon God and His kingdom, and cultivating intimate communion with the Holy Spirit.

G.D. Watson preaches on the importance of dying to selfishness, emphasizing the need to mortify the deeds of the body through the Spirit and exposing false notions and prerequisites for self-denial. He delves into the principles and benefits of dying to selfishness, highlighting the essence of self-denial in motives and intentions, the significance of daily crosses in deep fellowship with Christ, and the blessings of being crucified with Christ, such as wideness of heart, tenderness, detachment from earthly things, and the deepening of faith through sanctified suffering.

G.D. Watson preaches about the importance of having tenderness of spirit in our Christian walk, emphasizing that without it, even the most righteous and religious life lacks the beauty and attractiveness of God. He highlights how some Christians may appear fruitful and zealous in their faith, but lack the deep, heart-piercing love that Jesus exemplified. Watson explains that divine tenderness of spirit goes beyond outward actions, influencing behavior, speech, and interactions with others, ultimately reflecting the compassionate and forgiving nature of Jesus.

G.D. Watson preaches about the deep need for the Holy Spirit in our lives, emphasizing how every grief and pain can draw us closer to God and reveal His comforting presence. The sermon highlights the transformative power of the Holy Spirit, turning our sorrows into songs of praise and leading us from self-reliance to complete surrender to God. Watson expresses the surpassing value of the Holy Spirit Himself over any material gifts, purchased by the precious blood of Christ. The speaker acknowledges the Holy Spirit as the guide through life's trials, storms, and loneliness, leading us into a boundless sea of love and filling us with divine love and presence.

G.D. Watson preaches about the secret of spiritual power, emphasizing the vital union of the Holy Ghost with the purified faculties of the human soul. He explains that true spiritual power is not based on eloquence, personal magnetism, or human energy, but on the divine current of the Holy Spirit flowing through a sanctified heart. Watson uses Jesus as an example, showing that even Jesus needed the power of the Holy Ghost in addition to His pure humanity to fulfill His mission. He highlights the importance of having our sanctified hearts and minds in vital union with the Holy Spirit to do the work of God, rather than relying on our own strength or abilities.

G.D. Watson preaches on the essential condition of crucifying self to be filled with spiritual power, drawing from the story of Jacob wrestling with God at Peniel to illustrate how God seeks to conquer our resistance and weaknesses in unexpected ways. Just as Jacob was broken down at his point of strength, we must allow God to break down all hidden resistance within us to be united with the Holy Spirit. Watson emphasizes that crucifixion of self precedes deep spiritual power, not only in converting sinners but also in breaking down the wisdom, righteousness, and strength that stem from human nature in regenerated believers.

G.D. Watson preaches about the secret of spiritual power lying in ignoring our creature ability and relying solely on God's divine grace. He emphasizes the importance of renouncing our own strength, wisdom, and goodness, and fully surrendering to the Spirit of God. Watson uses examples like Joseph and the apostles to illustrate how true power comes from depending on God alone, not on our own understanding or accumulated experiences.

G.D. Watson preaches on the concept of spiritual perfection as described in Hebrews 5, emphasizing the difference between feeding on liquid (milk) and solid (meat) food, symbolizing the maturity and depth of one's faith. He highlights that true perfection is not about age but about having all the parts and organs of a complete creature, akin to a babe developing teeth. Watson challenges believers to move from being baby Christians who need truth diluted to mature Christians who can handle the whole truth of God's Word without compromise.

G.D. Watson preaches on the importance of faith and the hindrances that can prevent us from fully trusting in God. He delves into the story of Peter walking on water and how his doubt stemmed from looking at his surroundings instead of focusing on Jesus' promises. Watson also highlights how seeking honor from men and the unbelief of those in positions of authority can hinder our faith. Additionally, he emphasizes the necessity of personal consecration to God as a key factor in strengthening our faith.

G.D. Watson preaches about the experience of soul-fainting, likening it to the fainting of the body, and highlights various feelings that may lead a Christian heart to faint, such as loneliness, feeling caged in, a heavy bearing down in the soul, and paralysis of faculties. He emphasizes the importance of considering Jesus who endured, not despising the chastening of the Lord, and seeking the manifestation of Jesus to the inner spirit as remedies to prevent soul-fainting.

G.D. Watson preaches about the divine tenderness of spirit as the essence of the Gospel, emphasizing that it is a supernatural work throughout the whole spiritual being, overflowing into every aspect of life. Without this tenderness, even the most religious life is a misrepresentation of the true Christ-life. He highlights that tenderness of spirit is preeminently divine, the very soul and marrow of the Christ-life, and can only be fully known through great suffering, which crushes hearts into heavenly sweetness. Watson also discusses the behavior that accompanies divine tenderness, which is superhuman and heavenly, instinctively avoiding hurting others and embodying limitless charity and forgiveness.

G.D. Watson emphasizes the importance of being alone with God in finding personal salvation, highlighting the need for a personal encounter with Jesus where He speaks directly to our hearts. Human words are inadequate in such a crucial moment of detachment from others and connection with God. Only through the Holy Spirit re-speaking God's promises into our consciousness can we truly grasp the assurance of salvation and holiness that God offers. Each soul must seek God alone for a genuine assurance of His perfect salvation, beyond the influence of others or mere words on paper.

G.D. Watson preaches about the powerful language of tears, emphasizing how tears express deep emotions and truths beyond words, reflecting in our gait, voice tones, eyes, smiles, and movements.

Watson discusses different types of Holy Ghost tears, including those of conviction of sin and intense desire to see God, as well as tears of pure love for others, shedding light on the beauty of Christ's character and the sorrow over lost souls.
