YOU ARE EQUIPPED TO BUILD MY CHURCH
from and by Grandma Anna
Intimate Walk
Because you are not of the clergy, you think you are not useful in the Kingdom of God? What a lie perpetrated by the enemy! Not only are you useful but you are actually the ones who go out and do the work of building up My church. The clergy are only your teachers to help prepare you. All you have to do is believe and I will give you the anointing wherever you go. It can be in the market place, in your home, in your neighborhood, in your schools or in your travels. The whole world is your field of ministry. Dare to believe My Word and watch Me watch over My Word to perform it in you and through you.
“The same one who came down is the one who ascended higher than all the heavens, so that his rule might fill the entire universe. He is the one who gave these gifts to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. Their responsibility is to equip God's people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ, until we come to such unity in our faith and knowledge of God's Son that we will be mature and full grown in the Lord, measuring up to the full stature of Christ. Then we will no longer be like children, forever changing our minds about what we believe because someone has told us something different or because someone has cleverly lied to us and made the lie sound like the truth. Instead, we will hold to the truth in love, becoming more and more in every way like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church.” (Ephesians 4:10-15 NLT)
“And then he told them, "Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone, everywhere. Anyone who believes and is baptized will be saved. But anyone who refuses to believe will be condemned. These signs will accompany those who believe: They will cast out demons in my name, and they will speak new languages. They will be able to handle snakes with safety, and if they drink anything poisonous, it won't hurt them. They will be able to place their hands on the sick and heal them." (Mark 16:15-18 NKJ)
