“And he told the crowd to sit down on the grass. Jesus took the five loaves and the two fish. He looked up toward heaven and blessed the food. Then he broke the bread and handed it to the disciples, and they gave it to the people.” Matthew 14 v 19 (CEV) A little portion from VISION BUILDERS' “Understanding The Helps Ministry” Manual reads; “Had Jesus never appointed people to work with him, would we have anything left of the ministry of Jesus today? Had Paul never had men and women work with him, would we have had anything left of the ministry of Paul today?” It is amazing to us how this particular message, in both the manual and audio forms have blessed so many lives. After attending one of our seminars, this particular Pastor said to me, “Please come and tell my people 'You are important!' Everybody wants to know that he or she is important, and that they are vital for certain things to move smoothly. Even nature attests to this. Scientists say plants are sensitive
Supernatural Service Serving in the HELPS Ministry is a Supernatural thing. Your service protects your Pastor from the distractions posed by attending to those daily ministrations that others can perform, and probably even more effectively too! These Duties could be as simple as cleaning the seats in the sanctuary or as complex as leading a Department or Committee that handles key aspects of the church. Acts 6:2 & 4, “It is not seemly or desirable or right that we should have to give up or neglect [PREACHING] THE WORD OF GOD in order to attend to serving at tables and superintending the distribution of food ...But we will continue to devote ourselves steadfastly to PRAYER AND THE MINISTRY OF THE WORD” (AMP, EMPHASIS mine.
