#1 In Harvest And Revival, Your Ministry Matters

Many believe leadership ministries like that of the pastor, teacher, or evangelist are the most valuable parts of the Lord’s Body, and therefore the most critical to End Time harvest. Everyone knows this isn’t true, but that doesn’t stop many from thinking that what they do, or don’t do, is of little significance; that somehow they are “optional” Body parts. That’s too bad because that’s not the way the Lord sees it. On the contrary, as you’re about to hear, the very part you play may very well be the key that unlocks genuine harvest and true revival. Hang on because “Your Ministry Matters!”

#2 God Has Always Had A Plan

God’s always had a plan. God’s plan always works. Over and over throughout the Old Testament we see that when men obey God’s plan, they succeed in accomplishing His will and desire. In the building of the temple; In the crossing of the Red Sea; In the destruction of the walls of Jericho; In the crossing of the wilderness; And on and on and on. God’s always had a plan. God’s plan always works. Since the Old Testament shows His pattern of having a plan, and making those plans known, it is reasonable to expect that God had and has a plan for the implementation of the New Testament church. Chances are good this is something you’ve seen… but NEVER saw!

A leader from an international ministry with churches in three countries remarked, “It’s like these things Pastor Ted is speaking were NEVER in the Bible until today, but look, THERE THEY ARE!"

#3 Staying Connected To The Flow

No matter the ministry task or assignment in the local church, the power behind it is traced to the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the common power supply for both the pastor and the parking lot attendant. Every gift and calling is plugged into the same outlet. The same outlet powering the fan that provides the gentle breeze, also powers the saw that rips through timber. In like fashion, though callings and opportunities to serve may differ, they are all powered by the same source. It is vitally important for every member to remain under the authority of Jesus Christ and connected to the leadership gifts given to equip the saints for the work of the ministry.

#4 Keys To Fulfilling Your Destiny

* You are in the right place at the right time. Once this is settled; people, pastors and members, will stop looking over the fence and get busy.

* God has set ministry right in the center of the road you’re on. Discover from the Word what’s right in front of you. Ministry’s NOT someday, it’s TODAY.

* The ministry God’s prepared for you is within arms’ reach. Your ministry is as close as the end of your wrist.

* You have what you need to do the ministry God’s called you to… today. You’ll stop complaining about what you can’t do and start doing what you can!

* You’re only accountable and responsible for how YOU use what YOU have. God won’t hold you responsible for what He hasn’t given you; He will however hold you accountable for what He has.
