First of all I don't think God would do that. He might impress on a preacher the same concepts and subject matter but God is not lazy nor does he expect us to be lazy. Just don't see God going that route.
However if he did by some chance I would think the preacher would be very unethical if he did not attribute the sermon to the preacher who originally preached it.
In life usually the most obvious reason / solution is the correct one and I think in the case of a preacher preaching another preachers sermon word for word the reason is laziness.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
