Ministers Rest

While ministering to the Lord on the 26th of October 2015, we were ever so wonderfully visited by His Spirit! Relive this special moment of spontaneous worship!

Man has fallen severely! The men of old were powerful men who were born and dwelt constantly in His presence! Think of a man like Cain. Even though sin was lying at the door of his heart, he was able to discern that his offering to God wasn't accepted! Even after murder, the voice of God was still heard very clearly! Today, men do all kinds of things and offer them up to God hoping that He would somehow accept our dead works. Man has become flesh! But man wasn't made to be flesh! Man wasn't intended to produce dead works!

Hidden beyond the veil lies the deep treasures of our inheritance. However, jumping into this place with the hopes of unearthing these mysteries without the proper process shown clearly in scripture will deny you of the reality of the life of Jesus! The foundational principles of the oracles of God were given by God to help produce sincere believers with the fruit of sincere love and faith. The milk of God's word is necessary for the child of God to mature to the stage where he or she can endure the purging of idols without bitterness, insincerity, lingering dead works or any other side-effects of spiritual malnutrition.

We've been blessed with an incredible ministry of the word! We find utterance in abundance in the painting of the mysteries of the Kingdom of Christ. As awesome as this is, we must not neglect another vital ministry that the early church and the prophets of old protected dearly - the Ministry of Prayer

The builder of the Church has a goal! And those servants have to align themselves with this specific goal of the Lord! For more resources and information about Ministers Rest, please visit ministersrest.com

The purpose of exhortations and warnings isn't just to marvel at the manner they were brought forth, rather they are to awaken us to the reality of what God is saying. This strikes an even stronger chord amongst ministers who will be judged by an even higher standard as they are intended to be custodians of the judgements of God. Rebellion whether intentionally or in ignorance is a grave thing among ministers of the gospel! The appropriate response is to align with the will of God as His pleasure escorts us into the fullness of what each minister has been called to!

Idols start off small and subtle, perhaps even resembling the wheat they are planted next to. They seem harmless and initially might not be very formidable. But if we allow them to remain without appropriate judgement, they will grow alongside the wheat and prove to be a great tree of knowledge of good and evil and a snare that only divine intervention would be able to deliver us from!

Diorthosis : διόρθωσις, εως, ἡ Short Definition: improvement, reformation Definition: amendment, improvement, reformation. It is time to return to the presence of God - the place we've been called to abide in forever! We don't have to wait for anything, we can start the pilgrimage NOW! We as God's people can call for the presence now to invade our world NOW! Occultists aren't waiting till they go to hell to invade atmospheres with the presence of evil, so why are we lazily wasting time?

Many of us in the church have experienced or at least heard of testimonies of incredible exploits in the natural brought expressly because of a desperation. Imagine if this kind of desperation was directed towards seeking God! At what point would we violently press into our Father out of desperation for His reality having tangible expression in us?!

Jesus came for one purpose...to bear witness to the truth! People who look like Jesus have only one purpose...to also bear witness to the truth! Very simple, yet this has been something so difficult for many of us to grasp!

A sweet moment from Cave Adullam as we ministered to the Lord on the 24th of August 2015

Its a tragic thing to hold the very transcript of the Almighty God in your hand and fail to see and understand what is written despite being called "learned". We see what a great blessing it is to see the mysteries of the kingdom partially...but God is going past that and is raising up a generation of people with perfect sight to read the sealed book.

Its incredibly sad that the words of our Lord and Master, Jesus Christ have been twisted by all of us in our hearts to seek and pursue what we desire. This religious practice must be abandoned when it comes to discipleship. Discipleship requires a complete forsaking of all desires, all pursuits; not just outwardly, but inwardly as well!

The Almighty has declared the end from the beginning and painted in types, shadows and figures His expectation from the generation that would usher in the fullness of the unveiling of God Almighty. We look at one of these, the token or sign covenant He made with Noah.

Learn some key biblical truths about the process necessary for the redemption of man from his fallen state to the new creation man.

Learn some simple key biblical truths that demystify the controversies surrounding the events that took place after Jesus death. Did God truly die? Did Jesus go to hell? What happened on that cross? Does the bible shed any light on this or are we left with guesses as to where Jesus descended after His graphic death on the cross?

While ministering to the Lord on the 8th of June 2015, we were ever so wonderfully visited by His Spirit! Relive this special moment of spontaneous worship!

Come, and let us return unto the Lord: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up. After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight. Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.

We often find ourselves rejoicing with the outpouring of the Spirit of God that we've been privileged to enjoy by His mercy alone. This is good, but our infirmities give plenty of room for spiritual pride to blossom where we continue to rejoice in our "exaltation" without any true progress being made as we have (like the first church in the wilderness) not done anything with the words spoken to us. We must pray that we don't become like that church which the gospel was first preached to, but was unable to profit them for whatever reason (or excuse we want to give)

Only those who continually abide and dwell in the presence of God can bear witness to the Person of God! These are the ones that can invite people to the fellowship with the Father that they're enjoying! Only those who tarry in His presence can deliver what the Spirit is saying to the Church of Christ!
