5-Fold Ministry - Works

 


Presented here are Bible verses, narratives and outlines, all in an attempt to help us see how we are to live and organize our ranks, until His Return.  As the One World System continues to pull together and organize to come against Jesus Christ, we are to pull together and organize to stand for Jesus Christ.  We are to be His Help- Mates (just as the first Bride was created to be Adam’s help-mate).  We are to help Him fulfill The Great Commission that was “laid upon His Shoulders” in Isaiah.  Oh, what a privilege; oh, what a Savior!!! 

What will He find you doing at the Advancing of His Kingdom?

(The Great Commission).

 

Isaiah 61:1-3 – The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to preach good news to the poor.  He has sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, and to proclaim freedom to the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion, to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.  They will be called Oaks of Righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of His Splendor.

Luke 4:17-21 – The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him.  Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written:  “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor.  He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor”.  Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down.  The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him, and he began by saying to them, “Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing”.

Matthew 28:16-20 – Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go.  When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted.  Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.  Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

 
Beware; the One World System is moving forward to come against Jesus Christ, through the merging of politics and media.  With the One World System will come:

World Government (Which will birth the anti-christ.  May The True Church continue to Worship Jesus Christ in Spirit and in Truth)
World Church (Which will birth the “false prophet”, a false philosophy.  May The True Church continue to Live by the Word of God).
World Medical System (May God give us the Power to no longer need medical care as they continue to indulge in abortions, cloning, euthanasia and pharmaceuticals)
World Banking System (May the Lord give us Provisions so we will no longer need the banks and their debtor’s prisons)
World Education System (Some Universities in the USA already require that freshmen sign a document upon entry stating they have already read the Quran.  Some Public schools require the reading of Harry Potter’s witchcraft.  This is where we must step in).

If you find yourself currently stuck in one of these world systems, then you have been placed there by God “as a witness”, to infiltrate and Spread the Gospel.  Your presence and prayers alone are doing that work my precious souls.  Your eyes are His eyes, your ears are His ears, you are all “very good spies” for our Lord.  But, we can no longer raise up innocent children and feed them into these illuminati systems under the pretence that it is “a good thing” – this system is not a good thing; they are not going to make this world a better place.  The only people who can survive these systems are those who have been bought by the Blood of the Lamb and placed here by His divine providential will, His Calling, with His Purposes in mind.  Only the Blood of Jesus Christ is going to be able to clean up this illuminati mess.  And he is asking us, The Bride of Christ, to be His Help-Mates.

Matthew 12:41-42The Men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now one greater than Jonah is here.  The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon’s wisdom, and now one greater than Solomon is here.

 So, how are we doing?  Ask the widows and the orphans.  Ask those back in Isaiah 61:1-3.  First, we must protect the women and the children.  That means we’ve got to build an infrastructure, an orphanage, a fortress, for home-schoolers and Christian Schools.  Men must pull together with men and pray together.  Women must pull together with women and pray together.  Husbands and wives must pull together and pray together.  Families and friends must pull together, stay together and pray together.  How shall we organize?  Please remain active in all 4 pillars, in all 4 corners, until His Return, to rule and reign forever.

 
The 4 pillars are: 

Personal (one-on-one with God)
Corporate (A Church standing up for The Church, The Bride of Christ)
Group (10, a minyan, a kosher prayer meeting)
Family
(2 by 2; where 2 or more are gathered in my name)
Personal, well, that’s you, standing alone, “naked” before the Lord, with Jesus as your mediator.
Corporate has to be involved in the betterment of a community, in the city gates and in the neighborhoods.
Group is as simple as the 10 people you can pull together for a prayer meeting (folks who will pray in agreement with you, to The Glory of God and The Good of the People).
Family, if married, we pray that makes 2 believers in your household praying together, daily.  If not, 2 by 2 is whoever God has paired you up with as a disciple.  That could be your music partner, your Bible Study partner, your prayer partner or your planning and working partner.

 To be effective, the 4-corners of worship must take place on a regular basis, at least once a week for corporate and group meetings, and on a daily basis for family and personal encounters with the Lord.

 The 4-corners of Worship (which equals Authentic Christian Living) are:

Prayer (In the Morning, In the Afternoon, In the Evening, All Day Long)

Music (Vocals, Instrumentals, CDs, Christian Radio, Dance & Drama)

Bible Studies (Scriptures, more so than other Christian Books)

Planning & Works (Living, Demonstrating & Displaying the Faith).
 

 

Exodus 18:19-21 – Listen now to me and I will give you advice, and may God be with you.  You must be the people’s representative before God and bring their disputes to him.  Teach them the decrees and laws, and show them the way to live and the duties they are to perform.  But select capable men from all the people, men who fear God, trustworthy men who hate dishonest gain, and appoint them as officials over thousands, hundreds, fifties and tens.

 Note:  Ten people, a minyan, is the number required by Jewish law to have a kosher prayer meeting.

Zechariah 3:7 – This is what the Lord Almighty says:  “If you will walk in my ways and keep my requirements, then you will govern my house and have charge of my courts, and I will give you a place among these standing.

Exodus 19:5-6 – Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession.  Although the whole earth is mine, you will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation

Psalm 68:17-20 – The chariots of God are tens of thousands and thousands of thousands; the Lord has come from Sinai into his sanctuary (that’s us)When you ascended on high, you led captives in your train; you received gifts from men, even from the rebellious, that you, O Lord God, might dwell there.  Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens.  Our God is a God who saves; from the Sovereign Lord comes escape from death.

Ephesians 4:8-13 – This is why it says: “When he ascended on high, he led captives in his train and gave gifts to men”.  What does “he ascended” mean except that he also descended to the lower, earthy regions?  He who descended is the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.  It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in The Faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.

We are being called forth into the 5-Fold Ministry, to function as one body toward the goal of fulfilling the Great Commission, which was originally presented in Isaiah.  Functioning in this way, we take on the task of representing The Kingdom of God, An Orphanage, A Fortress for all of God’s Children.  We are all children on the inside, at some stage of development, moving forward, pressing onward, from increasing to increasing, maturing, growing into the image and the fullness of Jesus Christ.

1. Apostles are you ready?  Preachers are you ready? 

Are you Ready to Preach “in the Light of Day”?  What will you preach?  The Gospel of Jesus Christ.  Teach them Jesus Christ is Jewish and that by Faith in Jesus Christ, we as Christians are also Jewish.  Teach them about Repentance and Forgiveness of Sins.  Teach them that Jesus Christ was Baptized.  By all means, teach them that God Loves them, start there, stay there, until they receive His Love.  Teach them to Confess, Repent and Receive the Love of God.  Teach them to Pray and help them develop a Prayerful, Peaceful Dialog with Their God.

Salvation Message:

a.  Know that God Loves You with a True, Pure and Holy Love.

John 3:16 – For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have       everlasting life.           
 
Romans 5:8 – But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

b.  Know also that We are all Sinners.

Romans 3:23 – For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.
 

Romans 3:10 – As it is written, there is none righteous, no, note one.

c.  Confess sins one to another, Confessing also your Faith that God is Faithful and Just to Forgive our sins.

.Romans 10:13 – For, everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
 

Romans 10:9 – That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord”, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

d.  Receive Forgiveness.

John 5:24 – Verily, verily, I say unto you.  He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

 

e.  Go, Forgive Others and Sin No More.

Mark 11:25 – And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.
 

Luke 5:20 – When Jesus saw their faith, he said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven”.

f.  Witness Events, Journal and Make Disciples.

Matthew 28:19-20 – Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.

 

2. Pastors are you ready?  Shepherds and Counselors are you ready? 

Are you Ready to Counsel and Shepherd “in the Light of Day”.  What will you do?  Walk them thru the grief process with their Personal Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

 Grief Process:

a.  Denial – Is there a God?  Come out of denial. Yes, there is a God and you will be held accountable to Him.  Grieve not the conviction of the Holy Spirit.

Ephesians 4:20 – And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

 

b.      Anger – Why did He have to kill His Son!!!  To save sinful man from the flames of hell, he took upon himself the flames of hell at Calvary.  I thank God for Calvary.

Colossians 2:13-14 – When you were dead in sins and in the uncircumcision of sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ.  He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the written code (that said we would die and go to hell), with its regulations, that was against us and that stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the cross. 

 

c.       Negotiation – Your works are as dirty rags.

Isaiah 64:6 – All of us have become like one who is unclean, all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away.

 

d.      Depression – Spiritual Warfare.  Resist the devil and he will flee.  Get busy.  Let God lead The Way instead of satan.  Satan cannot stand the Praises of God.  So Sing a New Song, turn on your local Christian Radio station (ex.BBN-Bible Broadcasting Network) and leave it on in your home 24/7, louder if you have to, until the negative, evil, doubting voices are gone.

James 4:7 – Submit yourselves, then to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

 

e.      Acceptance Pray continuously to God for He hears and He answers your Prayers.  Say out loud, I am Blessed, I am Healed, Death, Hell and the Grave have been conquered by the Blood of Jesus Christ.  We no longer need to grieve, our broken relationship with God has been restored to us by the Blood of the Lamb.  By the Blood of Jesus Christ I am free!  FREEDOM!!!  Let Freedom Ring!

Psalm 120:1 – I call on the Lord in my distress, and he answers me.

 

3. Teachers are you ready?  Leaders are you ready?

Elders, Deacons, Ushers and Gatekeepers get ready to help those who come forward?

- Help them Pray the Prayer of Salvation.

- Schedule Baptismal Services for each of them at your local Church.

- Baptize them in the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.

- Sign them up for Bible Studies.

- Lead them to Prayer Groups

- Teach them to plug into Praise and Worship Services.

- Teach them to turn on their local Christian Radio Stations (especially BBN - Bible Broadcasting Network for Music, Hourly News and Israel My Glory).

4. Prophets are you ready?  Intercessors are you ready?

Pray.  Pray like you’ve never prayed before.  From your home, from the audience.   Witness and Pray.  Pray without ceasing.  LOVE with no ending!!

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 – Be joyful always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

 

5. Evangelists are you ready?  Musicians are you ready?

Numbers 10:9When you go into battle in your own land against an enemy who is oppressing you, sound a blast on the trumpets.  Then you will be remembered by the Lord your God and rescued from your enemies.

 

As The Church (Bride of Christ) The Whole Body organizes and comes together to the Glory of God and for the Good of the People, we are to assist Laymen within the Church (laymen home leaders, laymen Sunday School Teachers) and we are to support the Home School Curriculums with space, materials and volunteer teachers (as we continue to offer Private Christian Schools to those who would rather pay than serve).  Sunday School may be the only place (and time) that Public Schoolers have to absorb the TRUTH (True Teachings to counteract False Teachings).  The support of these basics (through Sunday School Classes and mid-week classes) leads into fulfilling the needs of The Church and the Community Markets at large.

 There is so much more to say, so much more to do, so much more to come at us in the Spirit World.  Know that now we serve an invisible God and we work in His invisible Kingdom, but someday we shall see Him face to face and His Kingdom will be as real and meaningful to us as life and breath itself.

Therefore, go forth, worshipping Him in Spirit and in Truth for The Kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of Righteousness, Peace and Joy in the Holy Spirit, because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men. Romans 14:17.

 Seek first His Kingdom and His Righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.  Matthew 6:33.

HE LOVES YOU ALL VERY MUCH.

KEEP UP YOUR FAITH AND THE POWER AND THE INSPIRATION FOR GOOD WORKS WILL COME TO YOU AFTER YOUR PRAYER TIME AND WHAT HE ASKS YOU TO DO WILL FEEL MORE LIKE SOMETHING HE IS ASKING YOU TO WITNESS RATHER THAN SOMETHING HE IS ASKING YOU TO DO, FOR HIS YOKE IS EASY AND HIS BURDEN IS LIGHT.

Philippians 4:3 – Yes, and I ask you, loyal yokefellow, help these women who have contended at my side in the cause of the gospel, along with Clement and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.

Galatians 5:1 – It was for freedom that Christ has set us free.  Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.

2 Corinthians 6:14 – Do not be yoked together with unbelievers.  For  what do righteousness and wickedness have in common?  Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?

Matthew 11:29-30 – Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.  For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.

We are to help Him fulfill The Great Commission that was “laid upon His Shoulders in Isaiah”.  Remember Simon from Cyrene who took the yoke upon his shoulders (the cross bar) and became a cross-bearer (a loyal yokefellow) for the Lord.

Luke 23:26-28 – As they led him away, they seized Simon from Cyrene, who was on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus.  A large number of people followed him, including women who mourned and wailed for him.  Jesus turned and said to them, Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me; weep for yourselves and for your children.

Matthew 5:41 – If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.

Carry the yoke like you are in a relay race (Ezekiel 37:15-28) My Precious Orphan Children and follow the leader, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, for His path shall lead us home, through the center of the cross, into the Kingdom of God, An Orphanage, A Fortress, for all of God’s children are coming home.

Isaiah 9:6-7 – For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders.  And he will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.  Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end.  He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever.  The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this (through us).

GOD BLESS!
