The Ministry

THE 5 DIMENSIONS OF OUR ASSIGNMENT:

 

EMPOWERMENT

Supernatural equipping to do what is naturally impossible.

The first thing God did to Adam was to empower him.

Then God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it. Reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that scurry along the ground.”

Gen.1:28 NLT

 

The blessing of God is the supernatural empowerment required to take charge of the affairs of life and establish His Kingdom on earth.

You have a sphere of influence. You have a realm to conquer. You have a promised land to possess.

The essence of empowerment is to furnish you with all that you need to govern your own world.

 

ENFORCEMENT

After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Matthew6:9-10

 

The Church is on earth to enforce the principles, concepts, lifestyle and mandate of the Kingdom on the nations and peoples of the earth. We are not here to play along. We are here to take over! The body of Christ is here to trigger a believing response among the nations; make men obedient to the gospel by word and deed. This is the meaning of enforcement.

By strategic intercession, governmental prayers, apostolic decrees and anointed preaching, the gates of the nations will open to imbibe the philosophy of the Kingdom.

The powers of darkness will be routed and Jesus will be enthroned!

 

ENLISTMENT

And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;  For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ: Eph 4:11-13

 

God has a place for you in his agenda. We are here to help you find your place, purpose and destiny in God, and then equip you to fulfill it.

The job of the 5fold ascension gifts of Christ (apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers) is to equip the saints, so that the saints will in turn do the work of ministry.

 

ENLIGHTENMENT

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Psalm119:105

 

That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, Eph 1:17-18

 

This ministry is being used of God to intensify the illumination in the body of Christ, by the Spirit of wisdom and revelation.

 

ENCOURAGEMENT

We are here to minister strength, comfort, hope and encouragement to the body of Christ.

So many people in the Church need comfort.

There are many battle weary saints who need to be strengthened with might by the Holy Spirit in their inner man.

 

Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God.  Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath received of the LORD’S hand double for all her sins. Isaiah 40:1-2
