Ur Profession is Ur Pulpit.
Ur line of Profession is a place of interface..
We kingdom believers are people who live in the border....we connect with both the Kingdom of God and the world(Babylon) in a spiritual and physical way respectively. Our calling as a kingdom community is to interact with Babylon.One of the effective means is through our line of profession or business. Ur job/business is your portal to express the values and dynamics of the kingdom's influence. U dont have to necessarily preach.Ur lifestyle is the greater preacher. Coz people will not listen to what u say...they will listen to what u practice as the saying goes "action speaks louder than words".
That is where u exercise ur faith,patience,love,tolerance,perseverance and all the fruits of the Spirit...this will show that ur from a different world.Remember Jesus's new commandment,"By this shall all men know that ur my disciples if u have love one for another".Our calling and ministry first is to reflect Christlikeness and not our talents and abilities. The grace of God will enable u to reflect qualities only a "dead to self" believer can.
God is releasing a greater grace to possess domains that the church has not ventured before. If u think ur called to be an actor,politician,businessman etc go ahead....there are "worlds" out there yet to be impacted by the kingdom and God is asking,"Whom do I send?".
Are u the chosen one to tread the path that has never been passed before by the christian world? Our kingdom world needs to advance forcefully and infiltrate all these domains held by the Devil so we can claim back what rightfully belongs to our God. The end of the world is not confusion..its will be dominated by the Kingdom Age of the reign of our Christ, the Lamb of God who was slain from the foundation of the world and of His saints who will reign with Him. All rulership position will be held by the Lamb's follower.AMEN.

The need for the prophets and apostles today
The purpose of the five fold technologies:
For the complete furnishing of the saints spiritually, emotionally, mentally, intellectually and physically,(individual level personal reformation, training them to learn to receive)
For the work of the ministry (be able to listen, download blueprint and fulfill instructions)(Training them how to give, impart, repair, reform, build lives) local church level
For designing, constructing and erecting the different units of Christ as one solid massive building according to the blueprint. Global level of networking.
And how long?
Perfecting and edifying is a process and is in a progressive tense in Ephe 4:12. Remember Jesus said I will build my church and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.(have or exercise force over it, or coerce or dominate it)
What he meant was He will be building His church through the fivefold that He gave to the church when He left. The issue here is if we reject the ministry of the apostles and prophets we are actually rejecting Jesus’ endeavor and effort to build His church which will be able to stand and challenge the enemy. He wants to build a church that will live to see death being conquered completely after which He will hand over the kingdom to God the Father.
We also need to keep in mind the context of the statement that Jesus made. He said this when Peter out of apostolic and prophetic revelation discern Christ and made an accurate interpretation of Christ’s true identity. He said You are a piece of rock (out of a bigger rock) but upon this rock (a massive bigger unison of pieces of rocks which is a combination of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ being the chief cornerstone) I will construct my church (a governmental company of people).
We also need to keep in mind the same architectural technology reemphasized by apostle Paul in Eph 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
(we are constructed and laid upon the firm technological strength of the apostles and prophets, Jesus being the chief pattern through which the other foundational pieces of stones fit or aligned their shapes).
Eph 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto a holy temple in the Lord:
Eph 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for a habitation of God through the Spirit.
And the fivefold will continue to function and operate (till we all come to the unity of faith)till we all arrive at a certain unified matured level of hearing capacity for all seasons of our personal lives ,the local church level and to global level capacity
And of the knowledge of Christ {frequency of understanding (apostolic and prophetic) where our downloads from God begins to become similar in weight and dimension in the corporate and global level and our operational capabilities are greatly enhanced,
Unto a perfect man (where we scale 10 out of 10).
Unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ (until we measure up ourselves to the height, size, weight, experience, wisdom, and maturity of Christ) Remember it is He Himself building a part of Himself, His bride the church. He expects it to be perfect full of himself not a drop less.
A physical body if observed properly also builds and repairs itself with every organs and cells doing their roles respectively. It self destructs when it refuses to obey the brain and some organs starts malfunctioning.Covenantal joinings and partnership (networking) are expected in the days to come. It is a must if the church wants to reach its destiny.We need a globalized church that can deal not only with national issues but global issues.

True Ministry starts with us first.
Most of us once we get saved wants to start doing something for God and many wants to jump into ministry immediately. But a word of caution though-yes God is very much interested in us trying to do ministry for Him but first He wants us to serve Him before we can learn to serve others. He wants us to become more like Him rather than start jumping into ministry.
The becoming like Him is more important than the doing part. Character is more important than ministry. When we minister we represent Him so we need to wait on Him to prepare us,chisel us and mold us to the character He wants to shape in our lives. The message is very important but the carrier of the message needs to be a holy,prepared and attested vessel. Our lives should correspond to what we preach and teach or else we behave like the Pharisees and being hipocritical.
The Son of God waited for 30 years before He launched into ministry,Saul who later became Apostle Paul was prepared in the wilderness of Arabia before He went public. They are our patterns to follow. A soldier needs to undergo training before he can be sent into the battlefield.
We are the last day sent ones and we have the hardest and the best ministry laid upon our shoulders and we need intensive and extensive training to represent our master and King and His Kingdom.

True Christmas is Word becoming Flesh!
There is a huge facade enveloping Christmas to this present generation. Looks like its all about shopping, new dresses, exchange of gifts,Santa Claus,Carols and what not. The world has failed to see the real Jesus because the church itself is lost in the Babylonian maze and are becoming more and more like the world and not like their Creator.
If u see the events surrounding the birth of Jesus...it was literally a clash of kingdoms between darkness and light. There was an attempt on the child Jesus's life but prophetic intelligence from heaven saved the Child from the great massacre. Even today their is an attempt by the forces of darkness to abort the manchild-the church that will rule with iron rod and mete out justice to the nations.
Christmas is about word becoming flesh.Unless we let the word of God become flesh in us we are still children and babes. We should stop being satisfied by just knowing the word of God and knowing how to preach or being full of present truths and revelation. We need to enter a new threshhold of present truth=to lifestyle,not just revelation in our heads.
Jesus is in heaven at the right hand of the Father and if we are to see His will come to pass we need to position ourselves in the callings God has placed us in. We need to live out the Christos dimension through our lives through the power of the Holy Spirit.

X,Y,Z or the Arriving Generation???
We have all heard this generation been given a tag of X,Y and Z generation. However I feel we are the arriving generation-like a flight that is about to land. Old pioneers are entering slowly into the next dimension and its OUR time to carry the torch and penetrate into every sectors occupied by the Canaanites-not just behind the four wall of the church but into politics,business,media,entertainment,corporate,education.
We need to be bold and courageous to express our values.
The world's condition is worsening with the recession,the Swine flu pandemic,social unrest,political upheavals,militant and terrorist strikes,accidents etc etc...but the Lord promise that His Glory will shine upon us when darkness surrounds us. Lets pray that God will send more "laborers" like apostles and prophets to build us up more into Christlikeness, not just namesake ministry minded imposters who talk only baby's stuff and only know how to give milk and not strong meat.
We dont need milk now, we need strong meat as the we are the last of the last days-the Arriving Generation.
Ministry is not just limited behind the pulpit. Its everywhere God has placed you. You dont need a candle where there is light. We need to let our light shine in the dark places of politics,business,media,entertainment,corporates,education etc. So dont hesitate to enter these arenas just because some narrow minded, religious leader stopped you. There is a new wine being poured. Is your wineskin new???
