BUT YOU ARE A CHOSEN GENERATION-A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD-A HOLY NATION-
HIS OWN SPECIAL PEOPLE (1 PET 2-VERSE-9)
_________________________________________________________________
OUR THEME SCRIPTURE (GAL 5-VERSE-7) YOU RAN WELL. WHO HINDERED YOU-FROM OBEYING THE TRUTH?
_________________________________________________________
TOPIC FOR TODAY=WHAT KEY DO YOU USE TO OPEN DOORS FOR YOUR GIFT? (PROV 18-VERSE-16) A MAN GIFT MAKES ROOM FOR HIM-AND BRINGS HIM BEFORE GREAT MEN.
______________________________________________________________
(PROV 18-VERSE-21) SAYS DEATH AND LIFE ARE IN THE POWER OF THE TONGUE-AND THOSE WHO LOVE IT WILL EAT ITS FRUIT.
FOR YOU BRETHREN HAVE BEEN CALLED TO LIBERTY. ONLY DO NOT USE LIBERTY AS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR THE FLESH. HOWEVER, THROUGH LOVE SERVE ONE ANOTHER. FOR ALL THE LAW IS FULFILLED IN ONE WORD. EVEN IN THIS, YOU SHOULD BE “LOVES YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.” HOWEVER, IF YOU BITE AND DEVOUR ONE ANOTHER. BEWARE LEST YOU BE CONSUMED BY ONE ANOTHER!
I SAY THEN-WALK IN THE SPIRIT-AND SHALL NOT FULFILL THE LUST OF THE FLESH. FOR THE FLESH LUST AGAINST THE SPIRIT-AND THE SPIRIT AGAINST THE FLESH-AND THESE ARE CONTRARY TO ONE ANOTHER. SO THAT YOU DO NOT DO THE THINGS AS, YOU WISH (GAL 5-VERSE-13-18)
WHAT IS THE TWO THINGS WE NEED TO HAVE TO BE EFFECTIVE IN MINISTRY
1. (PASSION) FOR WHAT YOU DO- YOU NEED A DRIVE.
2. (LOVE) FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD-SO YOU WILL SEE LIVES CHANGE HEALED-DELIVERED-AND SET FREE FROM THE THINGS THAT BOUND THEM
3. (HEARING THE CALL) WHEN THE LORD CALL YOU INTO MINISTRY TO KNOW WHAT GIFT YOU HAVE- AND WHAT GOD HAS CALL YOU TO DO.
4. (RECOGNIZE THE CALL) YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO SUBMIT TO GOD-SUBMIT TO MEN-&- WOMEN OF GOD-WHO HAVE THE SAME GIFTS THAT YOU HAVE SO THEY CAN IMPART INTO YOUR LIFE
5. (DOING-AND ACTING-AND WORKING IN THE CALL) THE GIFTS THAT GOD HAS CALLED YOU TO DO-IS NOT FOR YOU BUT FOR SOMEONE ELSE LIFE-SO YOU CAN HELP THEM TO GET TO THE NEXT PLACE AND DIMENSION-THE SAME WAY THE MAN-OR WOMAN OF GOD HAS HELP YOU-THE CALL ON YOUR LIFE IS NOT MADE FOR YOU TO SIT ON IT- ITS NOT MADE FOR YOU TO BE AFRAID OF USING IT-THE GIFTS YOU HAVE IS MADE FOR YOUR MAIN WORK OF YOUR LIFE WHICH IS MINISTRY.
6. (STUDY THE CALL) WHATEVER YOU ARE CALLED TO DO-AND WHATEVER YOU’RE GIFTS ARE- YOU SUPPOSE TO STUDY ABOUT THAT GIFT. SO WHEN YOU STUDY YOU WILL GO TO HIGHER PLACES-AND REALMS IN GOD
7. (POWER OF THE CALL) EACH CALL AND GIFTS THAT IS ON YOUR LIFE HAS ITS OWN POWER-WHATEVER GIFTS THAT YOU USE THAT IS CALLED ON YOUR LIFE HAS POWER-SO IF YOU HAVE THE GIFT OF HEALING IT HAS ITS OWN POWER-IF YOU CAN CAST OUT DEMONS IT HAS ITS OWN POWER-IF YOU SPEAK IN UNKNOWN TONGUES IT HAS ITS OWN POWER-IF YOUR GIFT IS PROPHECY IT HAS ITS OWN POWER-IF YOU CALLED TO WORSHIP IT HAS ITS OWN POWER-IF YOU ARE CALL TO BE A PRAYER WARRIOR IT HAS ITS OWN IMPACT-WHATEVER YOU ARE CALLED IN AND WHATEVER GIFTS GOD HAS PLACE INSIDE OF YOU ALL OF THEM HAS ITS OWN FORCE-BECAUSE REMEMBER IT IS THE ANOINTING THAT DESTROYS THEE YOKE.
MINISTRY IS TOUCHING-IT SUPPOSES TO TOUCH OTHER PEOPLE LIVES.

Becoming selfless, I must surrender to God and the leading of the Holy Spirit in order to fulfil my purpose. Taking down the power of flesh and allowing the Holy Spirit to stretch out in me. I have surrendered all that I am and all that you have given me authority over, have your way with me.
The Key I would use to open doors for my gifts would be Love.(1 Corinthians 13:1-13 ) If I speak in human angelic tongues but do not have love, I am a resounding gong, or a clashing cymbal. And if I have the gift of prophecy and comprehend all mysteries and all knowledge: if I have all faith so as to move mountains but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away everything I own, and if I hand my body over so that I may boast but do not have love. I gain nothing. When we hear the call into ministry I immediately think of the Twelve Disciples who followed Jesus during His ministry on earth. I must wholeheartedly take up my cross and follow Jesus. Counting up the cost, giving up everything to follow Him ( I mean everything) . The source of my strength comes from my closeness to Jesus, pattering my life after Jesus, who is the ultimate example of how to live. Obedience, Studying the Bible the "user's manual of life" It has everything we need to know God and live a life that pleases Him. Applying it's Truth to my life . Laying out prostate before the Lord in Fasting and Prayer..I must die daily asking the Lord to crucify my flesh. To bend my will to conform to His will. Not my will but Thy will be done Lord. Keeping my flesh through the power of the Holy Ghost under subjection. Sitting at the feet of My Pastor soaking the word like a sponge. I'm very careful what I eat and where I eat.
This is good Pastor Teyshanna, I especially love the part " your call is not made for you to sit on". Which is what I've been doing, until I felt I was needed. But God has instilled in me in this later age, the things that are important and those that are not. I heard one minister say the funniest thing; He said God hurt his feelings when he told him "I didn't make you for you", this is isn't about you, to be entertained, eat, and have sex. You are here for one thing and one thing only and that is to edify the body of Christ". It's not about us but it's about Jesus. I give my body a living sacrifice, fast and pray without ceasing, Lord until I've heard from you. Psalms: 91 He that dwell in the secret place of the most high, shall abide in the shadow of the almighty. Thank you Lord for making me and molding me for your purpose.
it all about others this is eye opening for me,i love it
This was powerful. Ministry is touching...it is suppose to touch other people lives. Amen...Love it. It is all about serving God's people in whatever capacity that is needed.
We must be prayed up at all times, live the life we teach or preach, and become Kingdom Builders for God....
This is how God wants his people to be when it comes to being in the front of people and telling them what God wants them to know.
We have to stay around positive people. People the uplift you and we should keep positive thoughts and say positive things. In all situations use the word of God. He who keeps his mine on God, He will keep in perfect peace beause He trust in the Lord (Isaiah 26;3). So I have to pray, fast, mediate, n read the word of God. Develop and keep a relationship with God so He can lead n guide me in everything I do, The closer I get to God the more He shows me and entrust me to do
This is really good meat. And I agree with Shawn Love-Williams in that this type of teaching and understanding it needed and often overlooked. The entire purpose of ministry ought to be to full the true definition of ministry.. .which is to serve. Somehow along the way many have gotten it twisted. But never fear... there are remnants out here with a real clue. And by God we will do our part in spreading the truth. And in my case... sounding the alarm.
