tVB 27: 5 HELPS MINISTRY TRAINING: DESPERATELY NEEDED: ON PURPOSE HELPERS!


He had been chosen as an apostle. He was entrusted with keeping the group's purse. Little wonder the others thought Jesus was sending him on another errand the night he went out to betray Jesus. The bible states, “For some thought, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus had said to him, “Buy those things we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor (John 13: 29). He was expected to function according to the purpose, intention, use, or design of his appointment.

Working 'on-purpose' is prerequisite for effectiveness as a church worker (or any kind of worker in fact). 'Purpose' is the reason anything is done, created or exists. It is a fixed design or idea that is the object of an action or other effort.

To be effective within your pastor's vision, you need concise answers to two questions. First is, “Why was your area of service actually designed?” Second, “What exactly is your duty within that area of service?”

Getting these vital answers and thereby identifying your purpose at these two levels is necessary to deliver relevant and rewarding service.

HOW TO WORK ACCORDING TO YOUR SENT-­MINISTER'S PURPOSE

This can be achieved through:

Ask Questions

…From the one who appointed you, until you clearly understand your assignment. Where possible, receive answers directly from the same. Reported answers, most often tend to be interpretations or explanations of what was originally said.

Wait on the Lord

Only He can input into you the necessary requirements for success in your assignment. As you wait on the Lord, the anointing upon your sent-minister will be poured out upon your life. Association also enables a rub-off of his/her anointing on you.

Giving Feedback to your Sent-Minister

...From time to time. This will help you remain on course. These points are vital for would-be successful helpers. It is most unlikely that you will know more about your assignment than the one who appointed you.

17 Then I will come down and talk with you there. I will take of the Spirit that is upon you and will put the same upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, that you may not bear it yourself alone.

A vital point to note is that the sent-minister is informed by God, while the sent-minister's helpers are anointed by God and informed by the sent minister.

The truth is, you were appointed because of the needs of your Pastor's God-given vision.

The truth is, you were appointed because of the needs of your Pastor's God-given vision. Only he knows his needs. He heard from God. Therefore regular consulting, as time permits, positions you for more information from source.

As a parting word, I would advise that you learn to base your operations on correct [and cross-checked] information and instructions.

God bless!

#4. The MINISTRY OF HELPS Series

  Understand God's Plan and Purpose. God set HELPS in the Body of Christ to provide AID, RELIEF and SUPPORT for the Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and Teacher. “Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually. And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, HELPS, administrations, varieties of tongues.” 1 Cor 12:27-28 God Bless!  There's More @ http://helpsministrytraining.blogspot.com Culled from The MINISTRY OF HELPS by Tope A.

#13. The MINISTRY OF HELPS Series

See yourself in God's picture. You are more than just a figure in the Ministry and Church's statistics. You are vital. Recognize your place. Your Minister or local Pastor will have a lot of difficulty fulfilling God's mandate without official Leaders and Members like you performing your Duties. Truth is, their productivity is already limited by their humanity! "The Body of Christ is not one part but many members. Every part is necessary!" Apostle Paul, 1 Corinthians 12:14-23 No Minister or Pastor is that powerful working alone! God Bless! http://helpsministrytraining.blogspot.com The Ministry of Helps by Tope A. Banjo (2013)

tVB 1:2 HELPS MINISTRY TRAINING: THE HELPS MINISTRY WORKERSTalk

Did I hear you say , “I can rest in the pew and dream of heaven. My Pastor is superhuman… he knows everything… can do everything. After all he’s ‘anointed’. He’s perfect. He must be an angel. And he’s ….” Bla bla bla… When you closely examine Acts 6:1-4, you see there a crisis situation in the Church at Jerusalem, despite the revival and daily addition to the membership that they were experiencing! The truth is, revival and church growth also bring along potential for problems. As revival rose in Jerusalem, work load mounted and for once the anointed apostles of the Lamb could not cope. They could be efficient in serving tables daily, except at the expense of their primary call and God-given vision of prayer and the ministry of the word of God. They called a meeting and told the congregation, “Folks, we need your help with the daily ministrations and the serving of tables.” CHURCH MEMBERS …EMPOWERED HELPERS! Church members form the ministry of Helps. You are to assist your Pas...
