The well-known story of David and Goliath is a tale of courage and boldness in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. As David approached the battlefield, his brothers questioned his motives for being there, while fear had paralyzed the mighty men in the Israelite army who were unable to stand against the terrifying threats of the Philistine champion. But David carried a different spirit, one that was filled with a divine cause.
Today, thousands feel like they don't fit in, having faced rejection and resistance due to their excessive fervor, boldness, zeal, and militancy for Christ. Many of them are discontented, distressed, and searching for identity and destiny. Yet, they too carry a cause and a fire burning within them to see God's power manifested in their lives and to impact nations with the power of God. "Who are they?" you may ask. They are the apostolic reformers, effective ministries, and passionate believers. They are you! They are the remnant.
We are living in changing times, and there is much to be excited about in the future of the church. The Spirit of God is pouring out fresh understanding of His word, specifically concerning the restoration of effective ministries. These are the five-fold ascension gifts of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers called to equip every disciple for ministry.
As we navigate through the turbulent waters of dead religion and lifeless tradition, we discover the new apostolic reformation. We also learn to recognize and relate to the apostolic ministry gifts, which are the spiritual pioneers laying the foundation for the manifestation of the glorious church.
It has been my prayer to capture and present to you the spirit of the apostolic church and the coming glorious church. Just as David's sling and stone were enough to bring down Goliath, the Word of God holds the power to bring down the giants of delusion while ushering in a new era of effective ministries.
The truth is, there has always been, and always will be, a righteous cause. Even in the face of opposition and resistance, we, as God's people, must rise and boldly proclaim His truth. Fear must not paralyze us; instead, we must pursue the purpose and mission that God has instilled in our hearts.
It is time for the church to arise as a mighty army, filled with the Spirit of God and unshakeable in faith. May these words ignite a fire within you, stirring up passion and boldness to pursue the cause of Christ. May we, like David, run towards our Goliaths with a shout of faith, knowing that we serve a God who is able to do exceedingly and abundantly above all that we could ask or think.
In this pursuit, we must not forget the importance of effective ministries and the role they play in the coming of the glorious church. I pray that you will join the remnant in the fight for the restoration of effective ministries and the coming of the glorious church. Let us lift the apostolic banner and boldly proclaim that there is indeed a cause worth fighting for. The church must be a united front, with each member fulfilling their unique role in advancing God's kingdom. It's time to embrace the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry.
Let us not lose sight of the cause, for it is not our own, but His. Together, we can stand firm against the giants of worldly deception, error, and carnal showmanship and boldly walk in the calling and anointing God has placed on our lives. As the apostle Paul says in Ephesians 3:20, "Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly and abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us," let us rise, recognizing the spirit of the apostolic and glorious church within us, and fulfill our divine purposes for the glory of God.
In conclusion, the story of David and Goliath is a symbol of courage and determination in the face of overwhelming odds. Similarly, in today's world, there are many passionate believers and apostolic reformers who face rejection and resistance for their zeal and boldness. They carry a divine cause to see God's power manifested and impact their communities. It is an exciting time for the church as the Spirit is revealing the restoration of effective ministries and the rise of the glorious church.
As already said, the church must unite and boldly pursue their purpose, fighting against the gates of hell. With God's power within us, we can fulfill our divine calling and see His kingdom advanced. (For more information check out my book Effective Ministries and Believers.)
