“A Time To Pray!”.

“And pray for me, too. Ask God to give me the right words as I boldly explain God’s secret plan that the Good News is for the Gentiles, too.  I am in chains now for preaching this message as God’s ambassador. But pray that I will keep on speaking boldly for him, as I should.”(Ephesians 6:19-20).

“And pray for me, too. Ask God to give me the right words as I boldly explain God’s secret plan that the Good News is for the Gentiles, too.” I know you have heard it before, but this is a mighty time of God. As we continue to strive to do the Will of the Father, there is always one thing we must remember; the power of Prayer. Even Paul, who was highly anointed by God himself to preach the Gospel, asks for people to pray for him. There is power in prayer! If Faith is a substance, Prayer is a way to command that substance to take form. When you pray for strength for someone, it is your faith substance that forms into strength within that person you are praying for. When you believe for a change in a situation, you are asking in the Name of Jesus for your Faith to move from the Supernatural, to the natural.

“I am in chains now for preaching this message as God’s ambassador. But pray that I will keep on speaking boldly for him, as I should.” I thank God for keeping us in chains! I rather be shackled to salvation, than be bound to sin. Prayer keeps us covered under the Lord. For it is by these things that we boldly confess His Word. God has created us to praise him. So let today be the day that your power to praise be transferred into your prayers.

“Many parts, One Body!”

“He is the one who gave these gifts to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers.  Their responsibility is to equip God’s people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ,  until we come to such unity in our faith and knowledge of God’s Son that we will be mature and full grown in the Lord, measuring up to the full stature of Christ.”(Ephesians 4:11-13)

Brothers in Sisters in the Faith, I want to discuss a concern that is continually brought before. For many years I struggled to understand my part in the ministry. As I was growing in Faith, people would say to me that I was called to pastor a church. Knowing fully that God has called me to work in the ministry, but by the Spirit, wasn’t lead to be a Pastor. It wasn’t until more and more people with mighty calling of God on their lives started to talk me that they were falling into the same situation. They know God has Called them to a great purpose, but felt that a pastor position is where they were being Called to. Do not lose Heart, for in these times the Lord is rising up a people who will be the fullness of the Church.
“He is the one who gave these gifts to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. Their responsibility is to equip God’s people to do his work and build up the church…” There is a place for your ministry in the Body of Christ and as such you will be Called to equip God’s people to do His work. It seems like Christianity today is so mainstreamed in there understand of ministry work. There is such a mighty movement of God in this time that we are starting to see the uprising of people of Faith who have the Heart to seek after the understanding of our Father. “…until we come to such unity in our faith and knowledge of God’s Son that we will be mature and full grown in the Lord, measuring up to the full stature of Christ.” God is calling for this time that believers come into the full mature knowledge of the Lord. There is many parts to the Body as there is many Callings within in the Body, but just like each part, each Calling works in Unity with the body. Once we understand these things of the Lord, we will get to a great place of understanding.
“Then we will no longer be like children, forever changing our minds about what we believe because someone has told us something different or because someone has cleverly lied to us and made the lie sound like the truth.  Instead, we will hold to the truth in love, becoming more and more in every way like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church. Under his direction, the whole body is fitted together perfectly. As each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love.”(Ephesians 4:14-16)

“The Healing Ministry”

“One day Jesus called together his twelve apostles and gave them power and authority to cast out demons and to heal all diseases. Then he sent them out to tell everyone about the coming of the Kingdom of God and to heal the sick. “Don’t even take along a walking stick,” he instructed them, “nor a traveler’s bag, nor food, nor money. Not even an extra coat. When you enter each village, be a guest in only one home. If the people of the village won’t receive your message when you enter it, shake off the dust from your feet as you leave. It is a sign that you have abandoned that village to its fate.” So they began their circuit of the villages, preaching the Good News and healing the sick.” (Luke 9:1-6)
.
“When I read this, I am reminded of whose Name has True power. It was before Jesus sent His disciples out to preach the Word that He first anointed them with Power and Authority. This Promise extended to all those who receive the Baptism of Jesus. Now, I don’t know about you, but this should set a fire within you that should never go out! We have been given Authority over every sickness and disease and called to cast out not one, not two, but all demons in Jesus Name!
.
“Then he sent them out to tell everyone about the coming of the Kingdom of God and to heal the sick.” These mighty men were not only called to preach about the power of God, but to show signs and wonders to accompany them. It seems that in this day and age, most people are so eager to preach the Word, but when it comes to signs of wonder, most people are cautious to act on. We have to have Faith in God’s Word and when it comes time to spread The Gospel, we have to believe without a doubt that these signs will accompany us. “So they began their circuit of the villages, preaching the Good News and healing the sick.” The healing ministry of The Lord has never changed. We are called to preach, cast out demons and heal the body of Christ. The Lord has called us to do great things, but these things will not be done if we do not seek to the fullness of The Lord.
