Discover how to identify apostolic ministry and how you can fit in as we enter apostolic times and the restoration of the apostolic reforming Church. Be part of the spiritual climate in remnant churches as they attack eight demonic giants and actively engage in building, guiding, governing, and more. Change agent believers is what God has called you to be. We have heard from prophets that the apostles are coming, and I believe that the apostolic reforming spirit of God has already arrived. Nevertheless, there are many adversariessuch as the spirits of religion, divination, witchcraft, racism, anti-Christs, Jezebel, secular humanism, and foreign gods.
The Word of God teaches a restoration of all things before the return of the Lord. Scripture declares of Jesus, “Whom the heaven must receive until the times of the restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began” (Acts 3:21). Holy prophets are still speaking of that restoration today. Many things are being restored in this hour and the restoration of apostolic ministry, churches and believers is a major part of the fulfillment of that reconstruction.
The Holy Spirit is giving us little bits of prophetic insight into this restoration of the apostolic spirit. These writings are but a meager glimpse into the things that the Spirit of God has shown to me and others. You might ask yourself these questions regarding the restoration of all things and specifically the restoration of apostolic ministry and your involvement:
- How can apostolic ministry, churches, and believers be identified?
- What are the strongest earmarks that set them apart from others?
- Why is the restoration of apostolic ministry important today?
- How do you fit in?
SPIRITUAL CLIMATES IN REMNANT CHURCHES
As we explore these questions, we will discover one of the most striking signs of remnant believers is found in the spiritual climates of the churches they attend. The apostolic spirit is resident in remnant believers that attend apostolic churches. When you walk in the door, you immediately sense that something is different. The most amazing thing about this type of ministry is their sensitivity to the spiritual climate around them. Because of the strong apostolic anointing on the believers they aggressively contend with the hard heavens of their territories and command spiritual change.
Churches that carry an apostolic reforming spirit are churches that do more than nurture and pastor people. They know how to contend with the hard brazen heavens that hinder prayer, praise, liberty and the spiritual growth of the people. They know how to command spiritual gates to open that the King of Glory might come into their midst.
Listen and you hear a different sound among the believers in their services. Even their music is different, it’s apostolic. Apostolic music has more of a spiritual punch to it. It’s the sound of authority. Their songs are not the familiar nice mellow Christian tunes of your parent’s generation but are commanding, decreeing and proclaiming. They are songs that lift up and exalt Jesus while prophetically decreeing the will of the Lord for your life.
REFORMATION BEFORE RESTORATION
So what’s going on? Why are things so different and why do we see so much change? It’s because we have entered new apostolic times. We are experiencing another level of the restoration of all things and the release of apostolic grace. The apostolic spirit comes from the restoration of apostolic grace.Again, the Word of God, tells us about a time of great change that will take place before the return of the Lord. We also know that times of restoration or change are always preceded by a reforming spirit (Hebrews 9:10).
The word reformation is the Greek word diorthosis which means to straighten out thoroughly and to restore to a natural and normal condition. So we learn that you cannot enter the times of restoration without the times of reformation. This is why the Holy Spirit is pouring out a reforming apostolic grace on the body of Christ. Reformation always precedes restoration. The vehicle for this restoration of all things will be the reforming anointing on the apostolic church. So let’s introduce a few characteristics of this new apostolic Church.
EIGHT DEMONIC GIANTS
Reforming churches are governing churches. By that, I mean that they are very confrontational in the realm of the spirit. They understand their authority and carry a high-level spiritual boldness. They confront and tear down religious idolatry, unproductive religious form, and vain religious traditions. They give an identity to those who were rejected in other churches because of what they carried spiritually. They are highly committed and dedicated to advancing the cause of Christ throughout the world. There are at least seven demonic giants in the land they will not ignore but rather an attack, the Giants of:
- Religion
- Divination
- Witchcraft
- Racism
- Anti-Christ spirits
- Jezebel
- Secular Humanism
- And Foreign gods (Strange Fire)
Reforming believers and churches build their lives and ministries on Spirit-life living rather than dead social, religious programs. They are the “working believers and churches” with bold pursuing spirits that carry and impart spiritual strength to others. Apostolic believers and churches have fervent, even militant prayer lives because they believe that the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man maketh much of God’s power available (James 5:16).
Reforming believers carry spiritual authority and aren’t afraid to use it. They have a vision for reaching all nations for Christ, taking dominion and ministering with fresh prophetic insight. They have an orderly divine flow and command dormant gifts to stir and come alive! Apostolic believers know the Word of God and the ways of God. Reforming believers and churches:
- Build
- Guide
- Govern
- Establish
- Attack hard heavens
- Carry spiritual liberty
- Impart spiritual gifts
- Set the order of things
- Father sons and daughters
- Mature the saints
- Set the pace
- Influence
- Train
- Send
- Hear
- See
- Say
- And do.
We have entered apostolic times and stand on the cutting-edge of the restoration of the apostolic reforming Church. What an exciting time to be alive! The Spirit of God gave me a prophetic decree regarding a prelude to the greatest awaking the Church has ever seen, the Roar of Zion. The Lion of Judah is about to roar out of Zion and awaken the mighty men. It's these mighty men that will not ignore the giants in the land.
