Ministry and A Minister
The Assignment Of A Minister
Winning Strategies that will cause a ministry to thrive and to Excel

Ministry has nothing to do with:

A Mic
A pulpit
A Church and
A Congregation

Ministry essentially has everything to do with:

Your Motive
Your Goal

Your motive and your goal is what defines ministry, more than the activities that are performed and the tools that are used.

Ministry is any activity at all that is motivated by:

Your Love For Jesus
And Intended to reveal his glory

2 Chronicles 25:1-2 KJV, Psalm 19:14 KJV

The foundation for accepting anything in the spirit:

Checking Heart
Heart matter is a very big deal to God no matter what you do no matter what you do.
The state of the heart of the one who is doing it.
The Goal (Genesis 11, John 3:30 KJV)

Motived by your Love Jesus with a singular goal to see him reveal to your world is called ministry

It is not the visibility as it where, it is the purity of your motive

A Minister Is Every believer Who Has Been:

Transformed
Empowered and is
Serving The Purposes of God

Who is A Minister? Colossians 4:17 KJV

1. One Who Has Received The Calling To Ministry From The Lord and

2. Is actively serving God and his people whether as a pastor, an apostle, a prophet, a teacher of God’s word as an evangelist, as a worshipper

God Is Evolving The Ministry:

1. The lifestyle and the consecrations that true priesthood demands and its consecrations
Consecrations that make for priesthood

2. The Principles and practices in terms of doctrinal accuracy and a healthy strategy for building believers
God is restoring order in terms of a sound understanding of scripture and a restoration to doctrine. 1 Corinthians 3:10 KJV

3. A Restoration of Genuine Apostolic Signs and Wonders. Acts 4:33 KJV

The power dimension is the end point of doing certain things.

Your consecration, the content that builds you, and then the engracing.

When You Find A Believer Who Is Not Mature, Three Things Are Usually Wrong:

1. The personal desire of that person to know God or to love God is found wanting

2. The kind and the quality of priesthood raising and building that person

3. The content that is used in building that person

The Assignment Of A Minister:

Ephesians 4:12-14 KJV
Colossians 1:27-28 KJV
1 Corinthians 3:10-14 KJV
A Man of God is a builder, A preacher is a builder, A priest is a builder

You are not rewarded because you are doing ministry you are rewarded when your work remains, when it is tested and it remains.

What governs anything not just ministry is vision
