PILLARS OF MINISTRY 3

"THEY serve in a system of worship that is only a copy, a shadow of the real one in heaven. FOR when MOSES was getting ready to Build the Tabernacle, God gave him this warning: “BE SURE THAT YOU MAKE EVERYTHING ACCORDING TO THE PATTERN I HAVE SHOWN YOU HERE ON THE MOUNTAIN.”
Hebrews 8:5 (NLT)

• What have you discovered in your walk with God?

• I have seen Ministers who do not have any practical or working relationship and fellowship with God, at all.
• If you do not have a Communion or Fellowship with God, it may be difficult for you to actually know God's specific pattern for your Ministry (Galatians 1:11,12).
• You would just be running your Ministry on general patterns or principles that you copied from other people.
• You would be running your Ministry with the Principles you had copied from someone who seems to be doing well in the Ministry. But the truth is, you cannot go far with such.
• With the idea of copying someone else's pattern, you cannot know the specific assignment God has for you, and the specific Anointing, which is unique, would not be on your life and the Ministry (Galatians 2:7-9). This specific Anointing is usually a result of your years of walking in Obedience with God.
  a. It is this Anointing that makes the difference in the Ministry.
  b. It differentiates you from other Ministers.
  c. It makes you, God's treasures, the special one, for that matter:
  7 BUT ON THE CONTRARY, WHEN THEY SAW THAT THE GOSPEL FOR THE UNCIRCUMCISED HAD BEEN COMMITTED TO ME [Paul], AS THE GOSPEL FOR THE CIRCUMCISED WAS TO PETER 8 (for He who worked effectively in Peter for the apostleship to the circumcised also worked effectively in me toward the Gentiles), 9 AND when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, PERCEIVED THE GRACE THAT HAD BEEN GIVEN TO ME, THEY GAVE ME [Paul] AND BARNABAS THE RIGHT HAND OF FELLOWSHIP, THAT WE SHOULD GO TO THE GENTILES AND THEY TO THE CIRCUMCISED" (Galatians 2:7-9 NKJV).
  READ: Malachi 3:17,18

• What do you know about God?

• What can you tell people about God in your personal experience as a minister? I mean not the things that you read in other people's books!
• Your personal experiences are your pillars, they are the areas which you have the Anointing on your life.
• It has become a common thing now, every Minister asks people to Give:
  a. But how many Ministers had the anointing for Prosperity?
  b. How many financial deliverers do we have in the Body of Christ?
  c. How many Ministers had the Mantle for Financial Abundance?

• Note: There are different Anointing put on each Minister. There is an Anointing for Healings, and that of Deliverance from demonic oppressions, and the Anointing for a number of other Problems.

• There is a builder's Anointing, that is, the Anointing to build physical Buildings.
• There is Anointing to pioneer a new work, a Church work, and raise it from the scratch to have hundreds, and thousands of branches.
• There is Anointing for mass crusades, with thousands of souls being saved, and signs and wonders.

• God has deposited different Anointing on each Minister of His. The fact that someone has a big Ministry does mean he would be a good financial mentor.

• In fact, such may not know anything about the Principles of financial Prosperity. There are people today who are criticizing the biblical principle of Giving, financial Prosperity, because they had not had any encounter on it.

• Some of them said they had tried it, It does not work. It is because they had not been taught by God on it. And the mind with which they Practice it could be the reason why they got no results in it.

• If you are just starting in the Ministry work, know the core of your Ministry, and look for someone who has similar assignment, with God's Anointing on him and connect to Such.

• Anointing is transferable. It can be extended from one vessel to another (Deuteronomy 34:9; 2 Kings 2:9-15).

• You attract:
  a. the Anointing you Serve.
  b. the anointing you Respect or Honour.
  c. the Anointing you sow To.

• The Anointing you disdain can never Bless you nor be extended to you.

• What you discovered in your walking with God is what He would ask you to proclaim or tell other people about Him.

• That would be your MESSAGE, your emphasis, and it is what determines your audiences—the people who come to your Church, or come to your Meetings, or Ministry.
• If you do not want to be part of the multitude who are inconsequential, you need to settle This issue.
• What makes you different is the Mantle you carry, the oil, the Anointing on your life.

• Prayer

• You will not fail in Ministry.
• You will fulfil the purpose of your calling in the mighty name of Jesus.
• And, should there any ailment in your body, receive your healing now in Jesus' name.
  Peace!

STEPS TO SALVATION
• Take notice of this:
IF you are yet to take the step of salvation, that is, yet to be born-again, do it now, tomorrow might be too late (2 Corinthians 6:1,2; Hebrews 3:7,8,15).
a. Acknowledge that you are a sinner and confess your Sins (1 John 1:9); And ask Jesus Christ to come into your life (Revelation 3:20).
b. Confess that you believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord, and that you confess it with your mouth, Thus, you accept Him As your Lord and Saviour (Romans 10:9,10).
c. Ask that He will write your name in the Book of Life (Philippians 4:3; Revelation 3:8).

• If you took the steps As highlighted above, It means you are saved—born-again. Join a Word based church in your area and Town or city, and be part of whatever they are doing there. Peace!
